Some of the most important pieces of art came from the Near East. We can see that in the last post with the religious art from the Sumerians. A lot of what we see in this time period —themes, styles, ideas— will be carried on throughout history. People of the past-past, people of the more recent past and people of today are undoubtedly very similar. I would argue that they feel the same emotions and, to an extent, still have the same thoughts. What we value may seem to change but intrinsically they’re still exactly the same as what our predecessors value.

College is the pinnacle of freedom. Students get to create their own schedules and make choices for themselves. There's no greater feeling than being in charge of your own life. There's also nothing as stressful as making decisions that can affect you forever.

Humans have to deal with a lot of s---. I sometimes imagine gathering the pain someone has endured throughout their lifetime and jamming it into a room. I think the accumulation would be insurmountable. Oddly, every single person repeats one of the most tumultuous scenarios: We break up.

Picking one period or dynasty to represent the entirety of this era was far too difficult. So I’ve decided that I will be dedicating two blog posts to Near Eastern art. Today’s blog post will be focusing on Sumerian Art (4000-2000 B.C.) and the other blog post will focus on Babylonian art.

I have heard from three separate business owners: If you have a dream, go for it. An entrepreneur is defined as a person who organizes and manages any enterprise, especially a business, usually with considerable initiative and risk.

Cartoonist Paul Terry once said, "Whenever I feel the need to exercise, I lie down until it goes away."
Fitness is a word that I admire and detest equally. Being able to run five miles sounds fantastic. Training to run five miles is an evil, evil thing and whichever ancestor of human evolution thought running would be fun deserves to step on legos for the rest of their non-existence.

It has been a dynamic and interesting year for women in politics, which is perhaps best exemplified by their portrayal in the media.

I love the earth-shattering vocal and instrumental power that female musicians exude while still maintaining specific femininity in their own right. It seems a little silly to categorize and rank what limited knowledge I have and claim it as comprehensive. However, it would be a blatant lie to say this list of artists hasn’t been marinating in my head over the years.

In my junior year of high school, I had the privilege of going to Japan for two weeks complete with airfare, housing and transportation, to participate in the Kizuna (bond) Project in June of 2012. Maybe it's a bit of a cliché, but even though it was only for two weeks, it was one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life and actually guided me into choosing a major.

Expectations come with the label of college student. Society reasons away our mistakes as us being young and free. I'm glad that we are granted that learning curve, but the strain of our college experience is often what makes most of us do the stupid things.

PREHISTORIC ART (30,000 B.C. – c. 400 A.D.)

The magic of writing, literature and creativity is that we are able to create worlds far beyond the scope of what we can see and what we have experienced.

Hello, fellow word and sound junkies. My name is Isabelle. I’m a second semester senior who’s motivated enough to create this blog, but you can’t count on me to get dressed up for class or complete any extra credit. Those days are long gone. Originally from Wisconsin (the cold state near Canada), I study journalism and English literature and intern for Gannet’s Phoenix Design Studio at the Arizona Republic. When time permits, I enjoy fondling things such as yoga, coffee, art, literature, travel, craft beer and food. You could say I’m a big proponent of music too.

Asian culture has been a part of my life since I was born; Being Asian myself, how could it not be? However, I had very little interest in it when I was younger. When my mother would take me to practicing Buddhist temples, I would sit on a chair and play with my brother while she knelt and prayed for good luck and good fortune. As for my father, I made only a small attempt to communicate with him, much less to learn Vietnamese.

A common phrase at the end of every first date ever, but now I get to gratuitously use it on my blog because I’m talking about myself.

Right now, I'm in the middle of four books: "The Book Thief" by Markus Zusak, "Divergent" by Veronica Roth, "Tell the Wolves I'm Home" by Carol Rifka Brunt, and the Bible.

Cries of joy ring out from the crowd as a large cloud of smoke hovers over the cool Denver air. Dozens of people from around the country are camped outside in the brisk chill to be first in line to get their legalized marijuana.
