Who is Poppy?
That Poppy

She's Poppy. She's Poppy! She's Poppy. But who, or what, is Poppy? Is she just another pop star? An art project? A commentary on celebrity society? Where did she come from? Why is she here? Many questions have arisen about this YouTube channel. I can offer only some simple details, and encourage you to watch her videos and draw your own opinions.

To begin to answer them, we go to Mars Argo. This was a band featuring a blonde girl (Mars?) and the long haired sultry Titanic Sinclair. The two dated for a while and posted a series of eccentric videos on YouTube with the aim to eventually create an entire channel of content called grocery bag.tv. They released one really nice song and then...that's it. Mars Argo dissappeared. Most of their videos were removed or set to private, only one remaining:"Delete Your Facebook". Then a few months ago, this eerie video of Mars was posted under a new channel. In the video, she holds a gun (real? fake? I don't know) to her head, blood oozing from her mouth, repeating that "everybody wants it all". Perhaps this was a response to Sinclair moving on to the next new thing and leaving her behind for another blonde singer. Either way, it's chilling.

A short time later, That Poppy cropped up with an expansive offer of strange videos, some almost meaningless, some silly, some seemingly a commentary on some issue. She also released a few music videos to catchy but generic sounding pop songs, including "Lowlife" and "Money". And guess who directs all of her videos? Titanic Sinclair. And he describes her videos as “a combination of Andy Warhol's pop accessibility, David Lynch's creepiness, and Tim Burton's zany comedic tone".

If you attempt to research her, there's not much of anything too substantial, just lots of conspiracy theories. She could be a living art piece, a robot, raised by the illuminati, or just a singer who wanted to delve into a weird image to gain attention. Her Twitter and YouTube were created in 2011, but feature no posts until at least 2014. Was is that she planned far in advance or were all previous posts mysteriously deleted?

Take a glimpse and see what you can gather of Poppy.


My telephone defines me. When it is dead, so am I.


What if you could reboot yourself? Everything's perfect. Living on this planet makes sense to me.


I just wish you would stop killing and eating us. You know, it hurts when we die. You just can't hear us scream.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
