Thank your ’22 seniors

I’m not an especially sentimental person when it comes to things ending. When I graduated high school, I didn’t really feel that sad. While I was leaving people behind, I knew I was going to be okay. The world keeps going, y’know? So, I didn’t think about goodbyes too much. That is, until I met Molly and Nora.

Artists and their audiences

I have never called myself an artist. Usually, I just say I’m someone who loves art. And that’s true, I do love looking at art, but I also love making it. I don’t remember a sliver of my childhood when I wasn’t drawing with Crayola markers or painting with watercolors. My life as a youngster was constantly consumed by art, and I really loved every second of it. I grew up in a household that embraced creativity, so no matter how terrible my kindergarten drawings...

Thoughts on being called a B!tch

The number of times someone has told me “before I met you I thought you were a bitch” is surprisingly high. The number of times I have just been straight-up called a bitch is also fairly high. As someone who is well aware of their Resting Bitch Face (RBF), I think it is understandable that people are initially put off by my presence before they really get to know me. However, what I don’t think is understandable is calling a woman a bitch simply because she is doing her job.

Own your style, even if it isn’t in style

Recently, fast fashion has become even faster. With TikTok and Instagram shaping fashionable aesthetics left and right, trends are going in and out the door in a matter of days.

You are not responsible for the world ending!

I don’t know about you all, but lately it has felt like the world is ending. And by lately, I mean my entire lifetime. And by “the world is ending,” I mean I have no hope for our future. Also, I know for a fact I’m not the only one who feels like this. I have a conversation like this with someone at least every day! Eek! What are we going to do about that?!

Have plans for winter break?

As this term comes to an end, conversations about winter break plans naturally begin to arise. As with many things, Lawrentians tend to make a competition out of winter break. Despite this sort of game being insanely ironic, considering the word “break” is in the phrase, I’m feeling pretty anxious about sharing my plans with others, worried I’ll be perceived as too lazy.
