OPINION: ‘What? Like it’s hard?’

OPINION: ‘What? Like it’s hard?’ By Alexia AlemanBridge Staff PodcasterPublished Thursday, April 4, 2024 For the last three years, my life has revolved around school. It has mentally, physically and emotionally drained me. Adults—I mean the older, mature, wiser adults, because if we want to be technical, I am an adult, and truth-be-told, I am not wise—think we’re lazy, irresponsible and do nothing with our lives. Never mind we have lectures, homework and we have to study, do countless assignments, read all the assigned readings and do all that for each class—five classes total. Alexia AlemanBridge Podcaster and Staff Writer Oh! Some even have real jobs. We have to maintain healthy relationships and friendships, balance school with our social life but “It’s not that hard.”...

SPORTS: OPINION: Celtics could be on top this year if they don’t choke Sports Column By Vicente MendozaSports EditorPublished Tuesday, April 2, 2024 We are midway through the NBA season, and there has been a good amount of ups and downs throughout the season for all of the teams.

Powerhouse teams you would expect to dominate the NBA, such as the Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers and the Milwaukee Bucks, have struggled throughout this season. This season, it’s difficult to predict a clear winner, but I would have to choose the Boston Celtics. Vicente MendozaSports Editor The Celtics are the top team in the Eastern Conference, as well as the top team in the NBA with a reco...

OPINION: Greatest love story of all time

OPINION: Greatest love story of all time Film Review By Jorge EspinozaSocial Media Co-ManagerPublished Tuesday, April 2, 2024 “You’re losing me to a life of my own,” says the lead character of Sofia Coppola’s Priscilla, Priscilla Presley.  Adapted from Priscilla Presley’s memoir Elvis and Me, Coppola gives the audience a look into the tragic romance of a young girl falling out of love with an American rock legend and falling in love with a life of independence. Jorge EspinozaSocial Media Co-Manager Coppola is known for making films depicting the heartache and loneliness felt by women. However, in Priscilla, this was a 14-year-old girl—at least at the start of the story. The wonder of Priscilla comes from its duality in immersing the audience in the blush-toned, blue-satin an...
