Autumn Calls in the Dark Copper tones of dying leaves taste the blood of evening's fading light; Merlot sunsets toast to a night of empty landscapes. Not a soul strolls along the ghostly streets, Only the wind speaks kindly on their behalf. Desert Mountain Range Oceans of sand encompass the rocky edges Of a colossal stone fortress touching the clouds-- Trapping those inside its sun-bleached depths In a prison of their own isolation The Hue of You This is the way we chose to play With our fingers crossed and our tongues tied Setting the typeface--curved, italicized-- On the page of our boldfaced lie. I collect the scraps of borrowed time You stole from my … [Read more...] about Poetry Collections
The Signs and Their Most Compatible Partners
Aries: Leo is the quintessential partner for the ram. Leos are able to keep Aries' eyes on the prize. Their conversations tend to be erratic and passionate because they share so many of the same values. Leo also doesn’t mind dealing with Aries’ fiery arguments as Libra is also grounded in their own flame. Both these signs' stubborn willpower make them great partners for the first sign of the zodiac. Taurus: Cancer, for Taurus, can provide an almost immediate and dynamic sense of trust for this sign. This trust stems from both of the signs wanting to creating a home and life within their partner. Their ability to adapt to each other as they develop within a relationship will make their … [Read more...] about The Signs and Their Most Compatible Partners
A letter to our exes
To our exes, We thank you for the endless nights of sitting up and wondering where you were. We thank you for never returning our texts, or leaving us on read. We thank you for making us cry, and making us feel like we were not important. We thank you for making yourself seem more important than we were to you. We thank you for flirting with our friends in front of our faces. We thank you for never being excited for us when something big happened in our lives. We thank you for putting our needs on the back burner to your world. We thank you for making us pay for your meals when you say “you’re on a budget,” we thank you for being so cheap. We thank you for putting us on blast in front of … [Read more...] about A letter to our exes

Californian’s Guide to Greece
Greece is a country known for its whitewashed buildings overlooking turquoise seas, and its rich history dating back thousands of years. It has become the perfect summer destination for all ages and prices, with many places to visit. Over summer break, my best friend and I decided to go abroad for three weeks to Europe. Neither of us had ever left the continent without our parents accompanying us, so we had to plan everything without outside influence or help. Athens International Airport is the most convenient to fly through. When searching for the cheapest airfare, try to use student websites such as Student Universe or STA Travel. These websites give special rates for college … [Read more...] about Californian’s Guide to Greece

Vox Pop: How Safe is our Campus?
In light of recent events, the term disaster awareness has become a frequent and urgent topic of discussion among students and our university's faculty. Disaster awareness, for our campus, concerns both natural and man-made disasters that could potentially be a threat to the well being of our community. Students on campus have weighed in on how prepared the city of San Bernardino and this college institution is. Rigo Orozco, 4th-year student, 24 years old: “The more people we have aware the better. Knowledge is the most important thing that we have. We should have gun safety training in the same way that we have sexual harassment awareness training each year. What we have is good, but … [Read more...] about Vox Pop: How Safe is our Campus?

The Signs During Finals Week
By Clairissa Gonzalez |Staff Writer| With finals approaching fast we're all feeling the pressure; some more than others. Here's how your sign is most likely acting during and prior to examinations week. Aries: Putting off everything until the last minute because there’s no way they can fail these exams. Heart stops immediately when they can’t fill out anything other than their name on the test itself. Taurus: Stressing the whole month prior, stashing snacks in the oddest places. Will not fully be at peace until results come in. Gemini: Not stressing, but not relaxing. Really just wants it to be summer already because they’re tired of being on campus.
