Hybrid learning starts next week

  Starting next week, NCC will be transitioning into a hybrid format. That essentially means that One class a day will be in person on campus, and the other will be online. Be sure to talk with your professors about which day will be online, and which will be in person. I would recommend printing out a schedule on canvas and marking which days are in person and which aren't. I can't wait to see you all on campus, socially distant, of course.

Everyone 16 and up can get vaccinated after April 2nd

           I just thought that I'd share some good news with everyone, We can all register for vaccinations on April 2nd, and this isn't an April fools prank. I highly recommend checking out this article for more information, https://www.nhpr.org/post/your-guide-coronavirus-vaccines-new-hampshire#stream/0 . I was overjoyed to hear this news, and with over 33% of all adults vaccinated already, I think all of you will be happy as well. 

What was your favorite post on the Blog?

  We've had a total of 66 posts on the blog since it's inception, so I wanted to know your favorites. Mine is the post about helping with anxiety. Since I know how bad it can be for some people, sharing my tips about helping calm your anxiety really felt good to share. I also love sharing the recipes I find/come up with with all of you, since cooking is my new favorite hobby.    But what was your favorite post to this blog? Is their any that you thought could be better? Let me know in the comments, and stay tuned for more posts in the future.

Peepsi is a thing now.....

  The crossover no one wanted is coming to  fruition. Peeps and Pepsi are coming together to create a Peeps flavored Pepsi that the internet dubbed Peepsi. I have no idea what mad man came up with this idea, and I'm not sure if I should thank them or curse their existence. I guess I'll find out when I eventually try a can of Peepsi, and I'll be sure to let you all know if it is any geed.

Justice League: Snyder Cut Review (no spoilers)

  The Snyder cut for Justice League has finally been released, and long story short, it is MUCH better than the Theatrical cut. Characters like the Flash and Cyborg, who were side characters in the Theatrical cut, become the heart and soul of the Snyder cut. It is actually insane how much of both of their stories were left out of the Theatrical version. It's no wonder why Cyborg's actor Ray Fisher and Joss Whedon clashed so much during the reshoots. Even the villain had a minor glow up, from just deciding to concur the Earth for no good reason in the original, to having an actual motivation in the new version (no details in this review because of spoilers).  Another big improvement is the CGI. While the visual effects won't be blowing people away, they are an improvement over the Theatrical cut. For instance, Superman no longer has that uncanny upper lip, so that memed about eyesore is gone.  Steffenwolf also looks much better, especially with his cool now spiky armor. Al...
