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

26 Weeks– New Quarter, New Perspective
"Tragedy blows through your life like a tornado, uprooting everything. Creating chaos. You wait for the dust to settle and then you choose. You can live in the wreckage and pretend it's still the mansion you remember. Or you can crawl from the rubble and slowly rebuild." – Veronica Mars Six months ago I wrote…Read more 26 Weeks– New Quarter, New Perspective
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
Another Day Another Book
Happy Spring Break for me and Bookworms #2 day for you! With a little more time in the past few days, I have not one, but two books to talk about today.

How to accept the flaw behind what's left of a teenage lifestyle and learn how to live instead.
A Black Woman’s Battle Cry
Just like I promised last week, here is my piece that was performed in the Original Women's Narratives Saturday night. Fair warning, there is explicit content in this and it's a bit longer/stronger than what I usually write. For good reason. Growing up, I feel like the conscious stares whenever my classed talked about MLK in…Read more A Black Woman’s Battle Cry
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
The Art of L o s t Expectation
It's finally a rainy day here in SLO where I get to spend (most of) my time indoors, hiding from the horizontal rain and inconsolable winds. As much as I want to say it's been a productive day that included a nap, it has been quite the opposite. But that's okay, nap or no nap,…Read more The Art of L o s t Expectation
