Remember life is never promised and you have to live day by day. Life can change at any time.

Cue Club

Despite taking 17 credits this semester and his track championships coming soon, student Sean Cooper is trying to fullfil a dream. He plays pool whenever he has the chance in the UAlbany Campus Center. But, like others he noticed that the one pool table they do have is falling apart in too many ways.

The pool table along side several ping pong tables.
When you lean against the cloth it nearly comes up and the table is worn in many places causing everyone's shots to not be accurate. Most students supply their own sticks because the school only supplies a few worn ones.  The blue bed is fading and the wood is unfinished.

While the pool table continues to fade, the university has recently received new ping pong tables and equipment.

Ade Gibson-Eleshin says it's unfair that they too can't get new equipment and tables.

My Final Grade

Our grade is set out by what we have accomplished this semester, through learning, writing, listening, speaking, aspiring and hard work.

"Let's Get Mount Pleasant Out of the Dumps"

The council and citizens started off praying peacefully for our children and our community as a whole and as the night went on, many were yelling and preaching for the same things.

News With A Hint of Opinion

Who is Jay Jochnowitz you may ask. Jay Jochnowitz dreamed of being an opinion writer back when he was a small child, and to his relief, his dream came true. "I happen to love this job, it's very stressful but I still love it," says Jochnowitz.

He describes his job as a shy person's perfect excuse to approach random people and just start asking questions. He is the page editor for the editorial section of the Albany Times Union.

We have discovered in my journalism class that college students have a hard time approaching random people and asking questions for a story. We much rather interview a professional, a teacher, or a friend. But, Jochnowitz opened a new light when he said that he was once a shy student and even so that didn't stop him from pursuing a dream.

Soundtrack to My Life

If my life were a movie, what would be the background music? Well, I've picked three tracks that don't exactly sum up my life, but they do relate to my life in some way. If I took the chance to listen to songs lyrics more often, I am sure I could relate to almost every song in some way, but for now here's a few songs...
