A week ago, I was getting ready to take part in one of Cal Poly's best events all year: PolyCultural Weekend. As a weekend for cultural clubs to invite prospective students to stay with us and spend the weekend on campus, learning about the culture and diversity we do have to offer as a school,…Read more Enough is Enough Cal Poly

On Love’s Changing Image– Love, Simon
I’m not quite sure how we got here already, but here we are. Happy Friday Everyone! I’ve been home for a full day, only to leave again soon, but I’m making the most of it. Wednesday I spent a few hours in the sun once I got home, reading and trying to get rid of…Read more On Love’s Changing Image– Love, Simon
A Quarter Closer to Right
I finished my last final for winter quarter by noon today and just like that, I am one quarter away from being halfway through my undergraduate career (hopefully). I have to say though, I don’t think I’ll miss weeks like this past one. I’ve spent more time studying in the past week then I probably…Read more A Quarter Closer to Right
Redefining a Home
How to accept the flaw behind what's left of a teenage lifestyle and learn how to live instead.
A Little News and New Shoes
After a few sunny days, we’re back to rain here in Slo and we just hit the end of week 9. Finals start in one week. As much as I want to say time crept up on me, it didn't. Between work and class and the life of a college student, things have been pretty…Read more A Little News and New Shoes

Lost in Translation– What now?
I wanted to focus on Black History Month for all 4 of my posts this month, but I feel like this is important to talk through. In the midst of watching the world grow up around me, my goals and hopes rearranged with every step I take. I've got some big plans for my future,…Read more Lost in Translation– What now?
Beyond the Surface of Black Excellence
Black History Month Week 2— Are you ready? Because I want to talk about something that ties into an entire culture of people, a term that I use a lot; one that I never quite defined for you. I want to talk about what it means say black excellence. I’ve mentioned this term countless times,…Read more Beyond the Surface of Black Excellence
On College
It’s my last blog post of January and somehow, the passage of time is just astounding to me. Somehow the beginning of sophomore year feels like yesterday and last year at the same time (see what I did there?). Yet, here we are; midterms began last week for us and from now on, they don’t…Read more On College
A Resolution for Something Better
Welcome to 2018, a new year and a fresh chance to accidentally write the wrong year on all your dates for a while. But maybe this year we can get the hang of it a little faster. New year, new us right? Except not really. Every year, I seem to share this sentiment more than…Read more A Resolution for Something Better
