Happy Weekend

I'm going to see Warm Bodies today, how about you? I didn't read the novel, and I'm skeptical that zombies can be sexy (this poster is a bit too Twilight-ish for me. . .) - but the movie looks hilarious.

Speaking of zombies, is courtship dead? This article from the New York Times highlights many of the points my friends and I have been discussing as of late. America, welcome to the cultural shift you created via social media.

I seem to be on a death roll today (ha?) - this article from LinkedIn on colleges going out of business really hits close to home for me. My own alma mater is limping along. Although I don't agree with all of the assumptions in the article (online tuition for some top-tier schools is neck-in-neck with regular tuition. . .which is why yours truly doesn't have a masters degree), some of the points are valid.

Alright, while we're still riding Depressed Railways, is anyone else still shook up about last week's Downton Abbey episode? Even though I accidentally spoiled myself awhile back and knew it was coming, the episode was gut-wrenching. Prepare yourselves people, the end of the season is even more grim. #nobacksies
