May 13, 2019
Filed under Columns, Opinion, Showcase
Game of Thrones has had a wild season so far. Everything we thought we knew about the characters is now thrown out the window. Truly tragic. Last night's episode was, I would say… blasphemous. My good sis Daenerys literally lost her mind and burned down all of Kings Landing. However, let’s chat...

Filed under Columns, Opinion, Showcase
Thus far the creators of Game of Thrones have given us nothing but twists and turns this entire season. Last night's episode is a PRIME example of such. Episode four of the final season of Game of Thrones wasn't exactly suspenseful, but it did grab my attention and make me cry a little bit. In the...

It's spring--the birds are chirping, flowers are blooming, and college acceptance letters are trickling in. If you're anything like me, you assumed that getting into college was the hard part, so choosing should be easy! Sorry, sister, that's just not how it works. From understanding your acceptance...
Spring break gives students motivation to finish out year
April 9, 2019
Filed under Columns, Opinion, Showcase
The start of the fourth quarter makes students antsy. The thought of the school year ending and summer adventures beginning is almost too much to handle. We lose all motivation to wake up for school and almost all work gets turned in late (if it gets done at all). We just can't get our minds off ...

Winter is coming to an end and spring is upon us. The time we’ve all been waiting for... I know I’m not the only one who feels like winter is really draining--mentally, physically, and emotionally. There’s just something about the sun being out that radiates good vibes. Every winter, I’m ...
