With many recent changes, NBA season should be exciting
With my 21st birthday on Sunday, I am sitting here on a Saturday trying to think of what to write about this week. The NBA begins Nov. 2 with a bit of a twist.

CDs, Cell Phones, iPods and … FaceBook?
If you haven’t gotten it already, kudos to you. If you have, I’m sorry. I registered for FaceBook more than a month ago and I have to say I definitely spend more time on it than I do on my homework. Not that I spent that much time on homework anyway … The point is, even though I don’t have that many friend requests or messages, I just look at everyone’s pictures and profiles.
