Review: Until Dawn
**WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD** I have very little experience with playing video games. Every single one of my (many) brothers is a gamer in some form or another, but outside of point-and-click Nancy Drew games (which are awesome, by the way) and Guitar Hero, video games have mostly existed in my universe as background noise.

Getting to Know Grief
The thing about Grief that not everyone realizes is that it’s not just a word or a feeling or a pit stop on a journey. I capitalize it because Grief is the proper name of a living, moving presence. There are many different types of Grief, but for my purposes, I’m going to focus on the one that is the heaviest and most deeply permanent; the Grief that is formerly introduced upon losing a loved one.

The Woes of Online Dating
The first thing you need to know about me is that I’m a hopeless romantic, probably to a fault. I would be lying if I tried to say I haven’t dreamt of meeting a handsome stranger’s eyes across a crowded room and all but literally floating towards each other while the crowd parts in awe and fireworks are going off somewhere in the distance because true love has been ignited. But one day, after dragging myself out of yet another of these reveries, I said to myself… “Self, please. Let’s be real here. The chances of that happening are slim to none. No one looks at each other anymore. The dating scene has shifted almost entirely to swipe apps. You’re a lonely sack of potatoes right now so maybe you should just give the internet a shot. You never know what could happen.”
