Easter is one of the most important holidays for many Christians around the world. It celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, a moment that symbolizes hope, renewal, and new life. Easter falls in spring, a season already tied to growth and new beginnings, which is why symbols like eggs, rabbits, and flowers are often part of the celebration.

Here is everything to know about the Sago study cafe that was held in the library on Friday! It was hosted on May the 2nd, on the left side of the library, and many drinks were sold for $3 each. The vibrant menu included Matcha Latte Sago, Strawberry Sago, as well as Mango Sago. This study cafe was made possible by the teamwork of our very own mindful club and cafe club! The clubs that previously held events like therapy dogs, board game cafe, Christmas cookie decorating, bake sales, gingerbread house contests, and many more! Although it is rare to have joint events, this one was brilliantly planned, and perfectly matched! Attending a preorganized cafe like this can be highly beneficial for your mood, productivity, overall studying, and even your stomach. Even if you aren’t studying, it is still a great opportunity to rest up and enjoy some time with friends in a peaceful environment. Perhaps maybe the Matcha Latte Sago is just what you need to get through studying for your math test! Or maybe even a switch in study environment will spark your work ethic again! If you missed this cafe, don’t fret as there is more to come, but be sure to look out on instagram @strcafeclub and @mindful.str. That is all for today, and I hope you all have a wonderful day!

Writing holds a significant place in your heart, doesn’t it? If it does, you’ll be thrilled to know that the Creative Writing Club is hosting their highly-anticipated annual creative writing competition once again! Mark your calendars from the 5th of March until midnight on the 19th. Whether it’s a captivating short story or a soul wrenching poem, as long as you’re feeling joy from the process. Seize this golden chance to let your creativity soar freely! The designated theme that your composition should revolve around is the intriguing notion of “Almost.” This abstract concept can be interpreted in countless fascinating ways. If I were to craft a submission, I might explore the tale of an individual ardently pursuing their inspiration but finding themselves perpetually falling short. But, hey, remember not to pinch my concept, Rams!
