This Thanksgiving break, I traveled to the most magical place on Earth: Walt Disney World. For five days, I was melting in the sweltering 80-degree heat in Florida and hanging out with Mickey Mouse. I went to all the parks: Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, EPCOT, and Magic Kingdom. On the plane ride home, however, the […]

Hollywood has thrived on iconic duos ever since its start: Hepburn and Tracy, Gosling and Stone, and Affleck and Damon, just to name a few. All of these have a sense of chemistry, either romantic or platonic, and when paired together in films, they only elevate the media. Another two come to mind, yet don’t […]

Since 1995, the Victoria’s Secret fashion show has been a beloved tradition in the fashion community. However, it turned out that the 2018 show was going to be the last for a while.

Imagine playing a game with someone who keeps changing the rules to win, and everyone acts like it’s normal. Now, imagine that game represents our country in a democracy.
