This weekend has been crazy…it is supposed to be a long weekend, but I am far from feeling rested. Instead, I am feeling harried because I have two assignments due this coming Friday and both of them are still not done. Worse, I am supposed to finish up one of them by tomorrow because my [...]

Humility has always been a trait which I admired in people. I admired it even more if it surfaces in someone who happens to be either extremely smart, beautiful and/or rich. These people know it but they never gave the impression of looking down on others who are, err, less fortunate? Not really the correct [...]
