...fact, my first creative writing class I took at Middlebury, my professor told me that writing was not my strong suit. I was discouraged. Frustrated, even. But not to the point that I wanted to quit. Rather, I wanted to be better. I wanted to prove myself; to show my professor that I could, in fact, write. The rest of the story is rather anti-climatic. There was no inspired epiphany, when all the lights suddenly...

Literature, writing and Spanish are not insurmountable; in fact, if you tackle them with the same fervor with which you tackle football or Stomping, they will make sense to...
