Living at home isn't that bad

·

Imagine this: You come home from your boyfriend's house Sunday evening and your roommates are in the kitchen eating dinner. Your plate is prepared and warming in the oven. You finish eating and try to help clear the table, but one of your roommates scolds, "Go do your homework!" As you head to your room, your roommates settle in front of the television. The "Lawrence Welk Show" theme music follows you up the stairs. This is my life.

Happy Birthday Mom

·

When my mom turned 45, I told her she was halfway to 90. When she turned 48, I told her, "Nice job, you are halfway to 96." Today she turns 50, and I could be original and say, "Way to go, you're half a century old." Instead, I'm going to say, "Congratulations." The more I think about it, the more she should be praised for what she's been through in her 50 years.

O'Bannon blew it with education

·

Next year, IU students will once again face a tuition increase. It's easy to get caught up in finger-pointing about who is to blame for such increases. But this year, no such confusion is necessary. The fault lies in the lap of the Indiana General Assembly and Gov. Frank O'Bannon.

Job, internship market tight

·

Susan Hamilton is a scholar. A senior and member of the Kelley School of Business Honors Program, Hamilton worked her way through the school's marketing program in three-and-a-half years, only dropping one class and maintaining above a 3.5 every semester. She seems to be an obvious candidate in any job search.

A glimpse of Hollywood

·

It could be Tyra Banks. It could be Steven Spielberg. It could be just about anyone in the entertainment business. Every morning, the buzz of who would be coming in that day flew through the Hollywood office building. Every day is someone new, a different celebrity dropping by, perhaps to discuss another multi-million dollar contract for his or her next movie or television stunt. The agent, the behind-the-scenes negotiator of the large revenues that the entertainment industry brings in every year, is the important person these stars came to see.

McCartney comes back strong

·

To write an accurate review for this concert is pointless. I almost wish I didn't write this because no review can express the magic and brilliance of Wednesday night's Paul McCartney concert in Chicago.

'Parade' focuses on diverse range of topics

·

"Parade" isn't your average song-and-dance musical. The spontaneous bursts of song that characterized musicals of the past have been tossed out, and a new era of musically driven drama has taken center stage.
