Homeless

Two weeks ago, I was sprawled over a horribly uncomfortable black chair in some terminal of Newark Liberty International Airport, ignoring the malevolent glances of travelers stepping over my legs and waiting for the harassed United Airlines desk attendant to tell me just how delayed my flight was going to be.

The few, the proud, the artsy?

For my whole life, I thought I was going to go to college and become a hippie. I was going to have dreads and a nose piercing and walk around barefoot in a long rainbow skirt, writing my poetry in sun-soaked rooms. Instead, I came to Princeton. I?m not complaining.

Doing things to do them

About a month ago, I opened an email asking me, ?What would you do with ten thousand dollars??
