- Paring knife (shown, far left): For making small cuts, such as taking the ends off carrots.
- Slicing knife (shown, second from left): Ideal for roasts, cheeses, and raw meat.
- Eight-inch chef's knife (shown, second from left): Designed for chopping, it's also thick enough not to buckle when cutting through a melon.

- Have a movie night (or day). Grab a bunch of DVDs he or she loves and have a marathon movie session on the couch. You can make popcorn, snack on candy in movie-theater boxes and sip soda. It can be really relaxing to just veg in front of the television with a friend by your side; there’s not so much pressure to talk while watching a favorite movie or television series but if your pal feels the need to vent, you’ll be right there.
- Cook a favorite dish. Make a batch of this special person’s favorite cookies or a even a savory casserole he or she can’t get enough of. Swing by his or her home and drop it off with a heartfelt note.
- Just listen. Sometimes when a person is feeling down, they just need to talk it out. Sit down with your pal over a cup of tea or coffee and really pay attention to his or her words. It’s natural to feel ...

- I love that I'm perfectly happy laying in my bed at night or walking to class alone with a nice book in hand. Not many people can be "alone" without feeling "lonely". But I can.
- I love that I can be plopped into a room full of strangers that I don't know and by the end of my stay, I would make at least a few new buddies :)
- I love that I can appreciate art in any form and find something I love about it - whether it's a nicely put together room, or a beautiful painting or a classical masterpiece.
- On the same note, I love that I can find something I love or admire about a person and therefore I can never ever truly hate anyone :)
- I love that, as a general rule, I am full of love and compassion... even though my patience gets low sometimes when I'm han...

Study Tips
- Take advantage of office hours. They are there for a reason. It's your chance to get one-on-one help from a highly qualified teacher. If you are struggling in class, there is no reason why you shouldn't be going to your teacher's office hours.
- Don't fall behind. Don't procrastinate. College school work is very fast pace and it's very difficult to catch back up.
- Use a study group rather than a late night cram session.
- Make sure you find yourself a nice study environment. Dorm rooms are not an ideal place to clearly focus on your studies.
- If things get loud, use ear plugs.
- Learn the material the very first time it’s presented rather than having to cram every time there is a test.
- Finals week will be hell, make sure you a...

50 Ways to Expose Yourself to Randomness
Cal Newport's three step way to become interesting:
- Do fewer structured activities.
- Spend more time exploring, thinking, and exposing yourself to potentially interesting things.
- If something catches your attention, use the abundant free time generated by rule 1 to quickly follow up.
Below are 50 ideas for step 2. They are all direct quotes from Tom Peters. I bolded the numbers of the best.
- Go to the nearest magazine shop. Now. Spend 20 minutes. Pick up 20 — twenty! — magazines. None should be ones you normally read. Spend the better part of a day perusing them. Tear stuff out. Make notes...

A powerful story about the importance of life experiences as they relate to approaching an understanding of reality and attaining enlightenment.
1984 still holds chief significance nearly sixty years after it was written in 1949. It is widely acclaimed for its haunting vision of an all-knowing government, which uses pervasive, twenty-four/seven surveillance tactics to manipulate all citizens of the populace.
