If there is one thing that makes me feel like an actress and singer while walking down the streets of the University of Rhode Island and chilling in my dorm room, it’s “SIX” the musical. The musical is about the six wives of King Henry VIII telling the audience how each queen became his wife….

Jill Cervantes2 years ago05 mins

Calling all my fellow Swifties and Tortured Poets: how are we doing? Taylor Swift released her 11th studio album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” on Friday. The album is categorized under the synth-pop genre, similar to popular songs from the ‘80s but still with the modern aura that Swift’s songs all possess. I have been a…

When you think of the movie “Road House,” the 1989 film would come to mind for most people; in 2024, however, Amazon Prime released their own version with Jake Gyllenhaal as the lead.

‘A Little Life’: not-so-little book review

Lauren Drapeau2 years ago04 mins

Back in the summer of 2023, I had a lot of free time on my hands and found myself alone at home for the majority of the season. I worked a serving job that seldom picked up in business, and therefore my eyes found themselves scanning the pages of books for hours on end. I…

Writer’s Ranking: Top 10 songs for spring’s open-windowed car rides

Ryan Pelillo2 years ago04 mins

Spring is upon us. Despite Mother Nature only giving New England a taste of warm weather over spring break, the spring season means we will soon get that subtle transition from in-car heating to rolling the windows down.

Soup-er dishes: Hope Dining Hall food review

Ryan Estus2 years ago04 mins

In the constant argument over which on-campus dining hall reigns supreme, students at the University of Rhode Island are usually torn. For me, the answer during my first year on campus was Butterfield. Between the burrito bar, pizza offerings and the ice cream freezer for dinners, it became a very hard dining option to beat…

Massachusetts’ hidden treasure: Love Letter to Worcester

Ryan Estus2 years ago03 mins

Picture, if you will, a landscape with a town at its center, sprawling nearly as far as the rolling hills that stretch into the distance. Streets are dotted with a blend of Victorian-era architecture and modernist buildings, offering pedestrians a glimpse into years past, while giving them a taste of the future. It is rich…
