By Maria Martinez Blog Content Contributor Men have been taught to like football and beer, not clothes and accessories. There are times when I just sit on the benches at the Quad for a few moments, looking at people walking through, and almost every guy is dressed in sweatpants and t-shirts. This "style" is what is predominant among college guys. Not many of them really take the time to grab […]
By Maria Martinez Blog Content Contributor Growing up I never had my own pet. I mean I had fishes, rabbits, chicks and a turtle; but not a dog or cat I could call my own. The only time I tried having a pet that required more care (a ferret), I couldn’t even keep it for a month. My parents thought “I didn’t take care of him,” and they gave him away. I […]
By Maria Martinez Blog Content Contributor College students live hectic lives. Our days normally revolve around waking up, sitting in class, then going to work or an internship and finally doing homework and projects. We barely have enough time in the day to eat and sleep well. It is common that we sometimes forget to send texts or call our loved ones every day, but we truly shouldn’t forget about […]
By Maria Martinez Blog Content Contributor This past week, I didn’t want to know anything about anyone. I didn’t have the energy to work or even to think straight. I had a toilet paper roll inside of my backpack since I ran out if tissues, and I am pretty sure that everyone that saw me felt pretty bad for me or were grossed out. Getting sick in college is the worst. There is no one […]

She is the one who knows you the best. She has seen your best and your worst, and accepts you just as you are. My sister is always there for me. I can call her at any time […]
By Maria Martinez Blog Content Contributor I went through midterms this week and I am currently dying. I have slept only for about 12 hours the whole week, and people can notice because I can’t hide the black circles under my eyes. I just want to go to bed for a whole week and binge watch my favorite show. I am the only one to blame for being a walking zombie right […]
By Maria Martinez Blog Content Contributor I went through midterms this week and I am currently dying. I have only gotten about 12 hours of sleep for the whole week which is made visibly evident by the black circles under my eyes. I just want to go to bed for a whole week and binge watch my favorite show. I am the only one to blame of course; I plead […]
By Maria Martinez Blog Content Contributor Banned Books Week is an annual awareness campaign that celebrates the freedom to read. This year, it was celebrated from September 25 through October 1. Its main focus is to defend the First Amendment, which protects the freedom of speech and press. Texas State had a banned books reading at the Alkek Library, and I went to see what it was all about. I imagined […]
By Maria Martinez Blog Content Contributor Breaking up with your significant other because you both are parting your own way to a new university, state or even country is really hard. You had a perfect relationship living in the same place, why did it have to end like this? Every year, college students have to face with this difficult decision of either having a long distance relationship (LDR) or leaving […]
