What’s On My Mind? – March Madness for Dummies

Ahh March is here… The sun is shining (for a couple days); spring break plans are coming together, green beer is mere days away and Sports Center has non-stop tournament talk. That’s right the NCAA Basketball tournament is quickly approaching. I have looked forward to breaking out the brackets and highlighters all year long, and the moment is finally upon us. But it just occurred to me that everyone doesn’t sit around and watch ESPN all day long like I …

What’s On My Mind? Olympics and Snow

The Olympics have started again and for the past weekend I have been glued to my television. The U.S. and its elite athletes are once again competing for medals and honor. This is a truly special event that only comes along every four years and cements athletes’ place in history. Due to numerous complications these athletes are struggling to compete.
There have been many storylines for these Winter Olympics, but the biggest one has to be the lack of snow. That’s …

What’s On My Mind? – Hayden Link and Resolutions

Another semester and year has begun, and with it comes the hope and goals of doing our best in all our endeavors. Some people have chosen to make New Year’s resolutions that will change the way they live their lives in 2010. I am one of them.
As the New Year approached, I sat down to think of ways I could improve myself for the next year, but nothing came to mind right away. I mean how do you improve on …

Staff Picks: Best Holiday Flicks

Official Movie Poster.
It’s a Wonderful Life
Beka Rutledge (Assistant Editor)
The movie that I must watch every Christmas is, “It’s a Wonderful Life.” It is such a great story about second chances and the true love you get from family. Although the film is in black and white, I think that aspect makes it even more beautiful. It captures all the magic of Christmas. Even though there are some low, slightly depressing portions of the movie, the magic of the giving …

What’s On My Mind? – Thanksgiving

This week, with Thanks­giving coming up, I began to think about things I am truly thankful for, and here is my list:
I’m thankful for my Cowboys being 6-3, though they look ugly doing it and still need a new quarterback.
I’m thankful for good food like Thai Spice or Sharky’s Burrito Co, but I am not thankful for the way they make me feel afterwards. I’m thankful for having a roof over my head, though it smells funny because my neighbor …

Christmas, IN YOUR FACE

COURTESY OF DISNEY – Official poster.
WOW! That’s all I have to say in my review to this movie. Not only was the animation great, but also the experience of 3D was the best I have ever had in a movie theater.
I remember viewing a 3D movie in the Epcot Center of Disney World when I was eight years old, but the quality was nothing compared to this. No longer do you wear the cardboard glasses with one blue and one …

TV Gets Modern

PHOTO | ABC.COM
The days of sitting around the T.V. when the clock strikes seven are long gone.
DVR and Tivo have made sitting down to watch your show, when it comes on, a thing of the past. Now we watch episodes on Hulu or stations’ websites, almost commercial free and on our time. This has created a market that makes it nearly impossible for new shows to thrive in. However, when a gem comes along, you stand up and take notice.

What’s On My Mind? – Hanging of the Lights

This week West Texas A&M University held its annual Hanging of the Lights event here on campus. It doesn’t seem to be a big deal, as the lights have not been turned on yet. However, it signifies the beginning of the holiday season on campus and the surrounding area.
This got me thinking about the holiday season and all the feelings it invokes. The thought of Christmas lights decorating houses and streets as you drive though town, the drinking of …
