After a long day of planning my Eagle Project‚ I left the Half-Price Books‚ or as I liked to call it “My Second Home” exhausted and ready to board the bus home. As I walked out the door‚ a book titled Conscious Capitalism caught my eye. It claimed to be a unique defense of modern capitalism and I decided to buy the book for my commutes.

Degrassi is a Canadian teen melodrama that I watched religiously throughout my middle school and high school years. I find it ironic that something that had been a colossal waste of my time would actually lead me to find my passion in life.
