How about that headline, eh? Incomprehensible. It’s a piece of work, if I may say so myself, and it’s all for you, dear readers, ye few who haven’t gone off and been productive and stuff. A little mystery never hurt anyone, I’d say, but let’s put aside the smoke and mirrors for now and break out […]

On the Job Hunt!!
Hello! My name is Chris and it is my pleasure to be a new contributor to the Unwind Blog as time races towards Graduation! I am a Psychology Senior on the ever-shortening road to graduation, 50 days and counting to be exact. This semester, I have been searching across the spectrum to find a job […]
Summer Fashion: Cheat Sheet
This weekend it rained and rained some more, so what did I do while holed up in my little apartment alone?

We’re all adults here, right? We like our movies to have real people and political drama with a dash of business humor, right? I mean, that’s how adults are, right? Well, unfortunately for us adults, the movie industry is being overtaken by children’s animated movies. Poor us! Not!
The First Tweet
You guessed it: The Last Level is now trying its hand at this newfangled Twitter thing. Some might argue that the advent of micro-blogging is just another way to embarrass yourself in front of the world at large…and I’d probably agree.
