How to Take A Selfie with A Dog (Assignment)

03-23-2020


 This is my sweet boy, Gus! I adopted him from the Humane Society in October 2019, so we will have been together for six months this April. As you can see, on his own, he is very photogenic. But when it comes to selfies...

...not so much. I find that the best way to take a selfie with him is to distract him with the squirrels outside.

5 Things I Learned This Semester (Assignment)

05-01-2020 It's hard to believe that, after spending my entire life in school, I am about to be finished with my college education. Sure, I'd love to go to grad school in the future, but for right now, I am essentially done with school. It's strange, especially given the current circumstances. It seems that now is a good time to look back on my classes for my final semester of my undergraduate education, so without further ado, here are five things I learned this semester in The Sounds and Silence of Laughter:  I learned more about the process of writing comedy through The Comic Toolbox . I’ve always liked to write, but comedic writing has always intimidated me—what if what I think is funny is just weird or boring to everyone else. During quarantine, I’ve been writing creatively more than I have in years, and I’ve poked around The Comic Toolbox for tips, even if what I write is for my eyes only. There are some truly wild and hilarious YouTube videos out there. I love...

Quarantine Haircuts for Dogs (Uncontrollable Laughter #4)

04-30-2020 If anyone talks to me long enough, they'll probably figure out I love dogs more than anything else. They're the best companions anyone could ask for, and as if that wasn't enough, they're absolutely adorable. Knowing this about me, one would expect I would naturally click on just about anything dog-related while I'm scrolling on my phone. The thing I happened to click on today, though, absolutely did me in, and it was a stupid Buzzfeed list, of all things. I don't know what it was about 15 Dogs Who Wished Their Owners Would've Just Waited To Take Them To A Groomer  that made me cackle all the way through, but whatever it was got into me and didn't leave until I scrolled past the final picture of a woman on the floor on her side with her shorn dog, desperately trying to make the poor dog look presentable. I decided not to fight it and simply sat in my living room laughing out loud at these ridiculous-looking dogs with expressions that say tha...

The Show Must Go On (Experience #7)

04-18-2020 If you haven't been living under a rock for the entirety of the year 2020, you've probably noticed that there is a massive pandemic shutting down entire countries, including ours. Naturally, this has led to the cancellation/postponement of almost everything requiring people to gather in-person, as it should be. However, if you recall my very first post on this blog, I talked about being in rehearsals for a show at TCU called Miss Molly . It was scheduled for performances on March 26 through March 29. Obviously, that didn't happen, but initially we believed we would come back to TCU on April 2 and pick up where we left off. The show was essentially ready to go on. The cast had all four acts memorized, the costumes were nearly completed, and the set was all but done. The department went ahead and rescheduled the dates of the show so that it would happen in April, no problem. Then things with the virus escalated, and universities, including TCU, went to online c...
