Calvin Anderson | Twitter

Hey guys, it's me (Carrington again with another episode of First-Year Files (formerly First-Year Fridays). Our guest for this episode is Calvin Anderson, and he's going to tell us a little about himself:


"Where are you from and what high school did you go to?"


Calvin: I am from Las Vegas, NV, but I moved here to Prince George and graduated from Prince George High School.


"What brought you here to Richard Bland College?"


Calvin: It was cheap, and it's also a small campus.


"What is the most important academic goal that you have set for yourself in furthering your education?"


Calvin: To get a 3.5 GPA.


"What is one personal goal that you have set for yourself while experiencing college life?"


Calvin: To mature and grow as a person.


"Are you participating/interested in participating in any clubs/organizations?"


Calvin: I'm not currently participating in any clubs/organizations, but I want to.


"What do you want to do when you grow older?"


Calvin: To become a social worker.


"Fill in the blank: _____________ is the most important value/moral to me."


Calvin: Respect. Everyone deserves respect. I'm not going to walk up to someone and knowingly disrespect them because, obviously, it's disrespectful.




...AND NOW IT'S TIME FOR THE LIGHTNING ROUND!!!


(Note: Calvin's answers are in italics.)


1. Favorite Color - Red.


2. Favorite Subject - History.


3. Favorite Food - Chinese food.


4. Best Destination - Georgia.


5. Favorite Theme Park - Kings Dominion.


BONUS QUESTION: Who's the best interviewer (and person) ever? - I only know one person, so I guess that's you.




That's a wrap, folks! The First-Year Files will be in recess this week, but make sure you read the first installment of my new article series, The Statesman Special, and a brand-new episode of A Word from Carrington! Once again, this is Carrington, and I'm signing out! Peace!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
