I remember when I was leaving the NPAC after taking a club photo for the yearbook. I suddenly crossed paths with a few of my friends in blue and orange jerseys. I immediately knew that they were about to take a photo for ultimate frisbee, and I was reminded of all the times JQ had […]
I usually don’t do anything special over the weekend or holiday breaks, but over the last spring break I watched John Wick 4 at the cinema with friends. First of all, I barely watch movies, or shows for that matter. It’s not that I don’t like them, but I just find it tiring having to […]
I wanted to continue writing about a new song that I think has a lot of meaning. Since we just did the poetry difficulty essay, I got a great idea to apply the same techniques we used on analyzing poetry on song lyrics. I’m pretty sure song lyrics are a type of poetry anyway. As […]

Ever since the World Cup started on November 20th, it’s constantly been a topic of conversation. Whether or not you’re an avid […]
Note: In this post I’ll be continuing off my last post, so if you haven’t read that, consider doing so if you get confused on what I’m talking about. Before I talk about the risk with a progressive bonus, you need to understand how the card system works. After you capture any number of territories […]
