This week, my feed-reader continues to be dominated by both animation links and the World Cup (hurray for both the US and Germany advancing to the round of 16 today!). However, since I already posted the best World Cup links, and I still haven’t seen Toy Story 3, I thought I would focus on a […]

So this week’s Weekly Reader is a special weekend edition…mostly because Wednesday was dedicated to celebrating the Blackhawk win with the rest of Chicago.

While blogging about the things I’m passionate about yesterday, I remembered that I had totally forgotten to post about the Goethe Institut in Washington, DC. Since hearing about the Goethe Institut in high school, I had always wanted to visit one of their offices, but never had the chance until our TransAtlantic Program reunion last […]

This post may be totally off-topic, but I just needed to put it out there because perhaps others struggle with the same issue. So I’ve been having a bit of a quarter-life crisis (to quote John Mayer) on and off for the past year. And in helping my sister make some decisions about whether she […]
