This Week, I've Read:
- a sobering account of participating in a Haitian political demonstration that turned deadly
- an explanation of why a high school basketball team was like a family
- a presentation of biblical and scientific arguments against abortion
- an outline of a student's uber-laid back life philosophy
- an introduction to the ethnic and religious tensions in Kazakhstan
- a preliminary brainstorm on whether or not guys and girls can be "just friends"
- an evaluative essay on the cancer treatment center where the author was a patient
- a harrowing tale of a summer camp mishap and ensuing identity crisis
- a gentle tale of longing for a friend's salvation
- a primer on escaping cultural missteps in England
- a review of a 12 Stones album
- two, slightly contradictory, reviews of Cibo! restaurant downtown
- a review of the Shane and Shane album Upstairs
- a freewrite on the Nigerian obsession with cellphones that rambled on in delicious detail
- the dreaded paper on Ordinary Men for Follett's history class
- an exploration of the legality and ethics of the payday loan industry
- an opinion on the projected sustainability of the dollar as the dominant currency
- a critical review of the marketing strategy and business practices of Abercrombie & Fitch
- a comparison of the merits of online trading and long-term investing
- my own historiography paper on Heinrich Wolfflin which is being revised for grad school applications
And now, I must say, every single one of those papers are less ambiguous, more concrete, or more coherent. Some of them are even all three.
I like my job.
