Just in case you tried to get to sleep early last night, the screaming and caterwauling coming from everywhere in Morningside Heights that woke you up at 12 AM was the Primal Scream, the traditional Sunday before finals venting of stress.

Bwog’s been spending a lot of time pondering the mysteries of Columbia lately.

Sunday? It’s Sunday? That means tomorrow is… Monday! AHHHHHHH!!! The best thing you can do right now is stay in bed and pretend this isn’t happening. That’s Bwog’s strategy, anyway.

Our next Senior Wisdom comes from something of a celebrity. We give you Ryan Morgan or, as he’s fondly known by Bwog, “Blunts in Butler.” Name, Hometown, School, Major: Ryan Morgan, Scranton, PA, SEAS, Civil Engineering Claim to fame: I occasionally wear very flattering skinny burgundy pants and look like Adam Scott in Parks and […]

You may have survived your first final yesterday, you probably have a shitload of studying left to do, but in any case at least it’s the weekend. Take a break and crawl into bed with Bwog to appreciate ice cream and the sounds of the 60s. Bwogline: Mmmm sweet cold Blizzards are coming to Manhattan. Too bad it will just miss […]
