By Celeste Parler Web Content Contributor College students find all kinds of ways to cut corners and save an extra dollar or two. But college students also forget to take care of themselves while balancing responsibilities. Even amid stressful finals and other life circumstances, always remember to practice self-care. Self-care is crucial for a few reasons. First, the physical benefits of caring for yourself will manifest after getting into the […]
By Celeste Parler Web Content Contributor To me, the phrase “college experience” has always been a loaded one. It means so much and yet no one can clearly define everything that entails.

You imagine always going out to parties, being with friends, meeting attractive people and from time […]
By Celeste Parler Web Content Contributor Horror movies are not for me, and I’m okay with that. Trust me, I have wanted to like horror movies for years. I have seen around a dozen horror movies, and most of them have made me feel as though I couldn’t handle any more horror movies in the future.

By Celeste Parler Web Content Contributor Stranger Things season 4 volume 1 was released May 27, 2022, and has since made a significant cultural impact. I associate the initial debut of the series with the revival of Winona Ryder’s acting career and the emergence of a new science fiction saga. Each season introduces new side characters to interact with the central reoccurring characters and to add to their development as […]
By Celeste Parler Web Content Contributor Have you ever heard the phrase “comparison is the thief of joy”? Because I have heard this several times throughout my life, and I haven’t learned my lesson yet. I don’t tend to compare every quality in everyone I know, but in areas I want to improve as a person, I am constantly aware of how much better my friends are at being the […]
