To borrow from Companion, let me be premature in this review: Companion is a brilliant movie challenging what the horror genre is while still providing a self-contained, enjoyable viewing experience.

Last week, amid the excitement of the winter transfer window in men's soccer, something seismic happened in Brazilian — and Latin American in general — soccer.
I have been writing stories for a while now. I cannot remember for how long. Some time in elementary school I decided I wanted to be a writer, after some endless iteration of another Disney-inspired handwritten short story of mine. Though my writing looks a little different now, this future aspiration has not changed. What has changed, though — more recently than I’d like to admit — is how I’ve thought about writing, and how my perspective on it has evolved.
As I was getting acclimated to Hopkins and starting to be involved during my freshman year, I attended the Student Involvement Fair and came across Hopkins Community Connection (HCC). The sign read, “Are you an Advocate for Health Equity?”. Intrigued, I stopped by to chat with a student who explained that HCC connects underserved Baltimoreans with resources such as food stamps and energy assistance programs. Like many of my friends, I put myself on the mailing list and filled out an application. It was a decision I made on a whim that day, which has since reshaped my understanding of healthcare in Baltimore, and more broadly, in America.
According to FKA twigs, “Eusexua is the pinnacle of human experience.”
At this point, just over a day has passed since I watched the 2024 film Nosferatu. I’ve let it sit. I’ve slept on it. I’ve given myself time to process everything and really let it marinate. And while I admit that I was initially dissatisfied, over the span of those 24 hours, I’ve found myself harboring a newfound appreciation for the movie.
America’s big game is here! Today, the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles face off in the Super Bowl, and this matchup is drawing more eyes than usual. The on-field and off-field juggernaut that the Kansas City Chiefs have become has made them the most divisive team in recent memory. As the Chiefs look to pull off the first “three-peat” in Super Bowl history, they’re sure to find support from the Kansas City faithful and an ever-growing legion of Swifities.

The start of something, be it the calendar year or the semester, usually makes us want to change our lives. Entire industries are built on this. We buy gym memberships and new planners, classic novels and stationery all in the hopes that we’ll transform into someone we’re not — someone better. This new person sticks around for a week, or maybe two, and then we’re back to who we were.
The dining table was overflowing on the Tuesday evening — sliced century eggs placed in a flower shape, crisp-skinned Peking duck, steaming vegetables in pork broth: These dishes were full of the taste and smell of home. My grandmother ladled out bowls of hot fish soup, reminding everyone that in Chinese, “yú” (fish) sounds like “abundance.” We displayed the Lunar New Year Gala on TV in the background with (less funny than usual) skits that we half-listened to while passing around plates of dried tofu snacks and pastries. It was a warm familiarity I had missed. For one night, it felt like I had never left for college.
If there was one artist I could describe high school with, it would be Mac Miller. Whenever my buddies and I were staying up at night for incessant school projects or stupid conversations, Miller was always in the background. We would be so exhausted from talking, just letting transcendent albums like Swimming fill the silence in waves.
It’s a running joke between my friends and family that I’m always talking to the wind. The breeze hears my bitterness, my overzealous conversations are lost to the zephyr, the gusts gather my grievances and my chattering chases the currents as they’re scattered like secrets never meant to be uncovered. Being at a school filled with big personalities and opportunities that I could barely even dream of, I often feel like I’m even less heard.
I’ve always found it ironic that the farther we get into the semester, the more production seems to pick up in the film, music and publishing industry. This week, several diverse media are being released.
