Bye, Bye, Bi-Coastal, and Hello, Chicago! - San Francisco Bay Times

San Francisco Bay Times — By Tabitha Parent- San Francisco? Check. Boston? Check. If you've followed along this summer, you'll know that I'm now adding yet another international, cosmopolitan city to the list of places I've lived in this year. Hello, Chicago! Of course, I must be truthful. I'm not technically Chicago. I'm actually in Evanston, Illinois.

Problems and Pleasures of Being Home for the Holidays - San Francisco Bay Times

Problems and Pleasures of Being Home for the Holidays - San Francisco Bay Times

San Francisco Bay Times — By Tabitha Parent- As I sat in the Uber from Northwestern's campus to O'Hare International Airport in Chicago, I was shocked at the number of college students I saw climbing out of cars and milling about the terminals. Home Alone had taught me that the holidays were a terrible time for travel (hence why I [...]

Liner Notes: America is missing sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll: Måneskin delivers on 'RUSH!'

Daily Northwestern — In the age of simperingly sweet pop hits from the same few artists who seem to have taken permanent residence in the Billboard Hot 100 (love you, Taylor Swift, but I am staring pointedly at you), the United States is missing music with a little more angst and black eyeliner behind it.

Parent: Have yourself a merry "grown-up" Christmas

Daily Northwestern — This Thanksgiving, my cousin and I found our 18 and 19-year-old selves sitting, for the umpteenth year in a row, at the kids' table. Last I checked, 18 is the legal age of adulthood in the U.S., and yet, there we were, sitting at a table where the youngest person still had yet to be...

Parent: On skateboards and the fear of God

Daily Northwestern — Nothing in my life made me want to be a skater girl more than growing up in San Francisco. It's not hard to long for a life on wheels when you live among all the effortlessly chill, beanie-wearing, tie-dye-clad boarders of Haight-Ashbury. But nothing in my life made me want to be a skater girl...

On Worldviews - San Francisco Bay Times

San Francisco Bay Times — By Tabitha Parent- My world has always been very small. I've lived in the same house (though it's sported a few different paint jobs over the years), on the same block (with the relatively recent addition of a much-needed speed bump) in the same 49-square-mile city (hello, Karl the Fog!)

In a Battle for Best City, San Francisco Beats Out Boston - San Francisco Bay Times

San Francisco Bay Times — By Tabitha Parent- At a college where most of the students hail from Massachusetts, New York, or New Jersey, being a girl from the Golden State is bound to earn you a few double takes. For starters, you're probably going to be one of the only (natural) blondes on campus.
