The Cornell Student Assembly has adopted over 40 resolutions this academic year focused on issues ranging from climate change to disability ramps.

Sometimes — more often than I’d like to admit — I open my Google Calendar and feel a flicker of anxiety. The colors stack on top of each other: red for class, blue for meetings, green for work, yellow for everything else I’ve promised to squeeze in. I scroll to tomorrow and try to imagine myself moving through it all — like being alert at 9 a.m., articulate at 4 p.m. and enthusiastic at 8 p.m. By the time I’ve rehearsed the day in my head, I’m already exhausted and extremely overwhelmed.
Anxiety triggered from checking your bank account balance is a familiar experience for many college students. I get that same jolt of anxiety every time I use Big Red Bucks to grab food on campus. After each swipe of your Cornell ID card, your remaining BRB balance displays on the monitor, and the budgeting spiral follows immediately:
Iron & Wine had always reminded me of long plane flights — red eyes, specifically, when the cabin is hushed and dark, spare a few screens flashing with scenes from rom-coms or Disney movies, and you know that the owner of the seat is most definitely asleep. Perhaps this is because the first time I heard his music — his famous cover of “Such Great Heights,” specifically — was on a plane, or perhaps it was due to how mellow, soothing and folksy I found his music to be.

The 98th Academy Awards will take place at 7 p.m. on March 15. There are four notable precursors for the Oscars, including the Actor Awards (formerly known as SAG awards), which took place this past Sunday. The other three are the Critics Choice Awards, the Golden Globes and the BAFTAs, which have also crowned their winners for the season. The only thing left to do is to sit around and twiddle our thumbs, and try to make sense of the various and contradicting directions these precursors point in.
In fact … she was … the blueprint.
Ithaca is a cold, lonesome place. I may believe this because I’m from the sunny state of California, but regardless, that was the mindset I had traveling 3,000 miles from home to Cornell. Entering as a sophomore transfer student undoubtedly made things worse. I left my previous school just as I had gotten comfortable. Not to mention, making new friends seems to get more difficult with age. I can acknowledge that this was my decision to make, but the transition was more difficult that I imagined it would be. I didn’t know how to find my place here — all in all, I had a very rocky start.
