Charlottesville is fun. The restaurants are amazing, the people all seem to click and, most importantly, the entire town doesn’t lock up and go to sleep at 8 p.m. The same can’t be said for the suburban town I have been exiled to. As soon as it gets dark, it becomes a ghost town — cue tumbleweed.

Sometimes I feel like I’m leading separate lives, like there are multiples sides to me that come out on different occasions. Usually, I don’t want these various spheres of my life intersecting. Social, academic and family spheres require different handling and attention to different cues.

I’m not going to begin by lecturing on the great virtues of honesty or the evils of lying. At an early age, these ideals were instilled in us through the use of groundings and time outs. However, as we grow older, we learn that people lie. Compulsive lies, bold-faced lies, white lies — the spectrum is broad and used by many, even our parents.

Saturday started out promising — I woke up at 1 p.m. to growing piles of snow and decided to enjoy the most unproductive 24 hours ever. I envisioned Netflix, Chinese takeout and a snowman followed by steaming hot chocolate. However, disaster struck shortly when my laptop began continuously searching for a wireless keyboard.

Recently, there was an article in The Cavalier Daily describing how fellow student Attiya Latif brought World Hijab Day to Grounds. While it was a well-written article, something about it bothered me — the hurtful comments.

My suitemate walked into my room yesterday inquiring about unofficial transcripts. When asked why she needed to know, she replied, “I’m applying for a couple of government internships and a transcript is required.”

There are two types of spenders: the Mr. Krabs and the Squanderer. The Mr. Krabs is distinguished by chronic back pain due to a lumpy mattress stuffed with oodles and oodles of cash. Beware — the Mr. Krabs is willing to risk his life in defense of this mattress. He can and will bite — approach at your own risk. A Mr. Krabs will never spend this money unless there is a guaranteed return investment.

The contents of my mailbox are, more often than not, immediately discarded. I don’t read flyers or the announcements that often have nothing to do with me. I disregard the “opportunities” (read: advertisements) that come flooding in because I had the poor judgment to enter my name in some ambiguous contest years ago.
