The LaSallianLike a typical millennial, I spend a lot of time on Facebook. Among the usual food videos, I saw a post saying that there is nothing wrong with putting your priorities (especially yourself) first before everyone else in your life. The next day however, I came upon a post saying the exact opposite, that your…
Recently, my friends and I have been night biking twice a week as an attempt to be fit. One night, we rode around an area that we don’t visit often. The trip there was similar to our previous ones, except for one thing. Even though we didn’t pass by a lot of people, we still…
Summer offers a chance to explore uncharted territories and to take up new hobbies and activities. However, more than a month into this year’s long summer, the thrill of activities may have already gotten stale and uninviting.

You’ve devoted your free time, skipped meals, and lost sleep for extra-curricular activities and organizations, supposed avenues for unleashing potential and leadership. You’ve devoted immeasurable time and effort, pulled off all-nighter after all-nighter,…
Simple treats and mouthwatering delights appear in every corner of a foodie’s mind. But the ability to express that fondness for food requires a special kind of passion, commitment, and creativity – traits which an avid food blogger must have. With the emergence of new cuisines today, many writers have the opportunity to venture into…
LPEP, Andrew Building, and block sections – for most Lasallians, these three could sum up their frosh year in La Salle. For transfer students, however, it’s a different story. Life in the university is arguably more challenging with the lack of frosh essentials, which many students deem necessary to survive the start of their Taft…
Picture this: it’s rush hour. Standing in the crowded coach with the heat searing your insides, your sweat dripping and your will being tested, you look out the window and see a yellow sign, visibly showing its age. It reads “Doroteo Jose,” and the first thing you think is, “Aaargh, still 6 more stations to…
