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.

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.

For years, the GRAMMYs have been quite a predictable and uninspired affair, playing it safe by repeatedly favoring the same industry darlings like Taylor Swift while falling short of its reputation as “Music’s Biggest Night.”

Kennedy Jr. (RFK Jr.) — who ran as an independent in the 2024 presidential election before dropping out and supporting President Trump — is eyeing an important position given America’s increasing prevalence of chronic conditions, as Secretary of the Department of Health & Human Services.
