A Senior Farewell
When people say that time flies, they really weren’t kidding. The time I spent at the University of Delaware has been a whirlwind of odd mishaps, life lessons, and poignant memories. What I’ve realized over the course of four years is that the community you surround yourself with will undoubtedly shape the person that you become. I know that this statement can seem like common sense, but I still found it very easy to underestimate its effects.

Plant Powered Asian Eats
April is here and so is spring! As the weather gets warmer and people spend more of their time outside, I am reminded of how grateful I am to be on this beautiful Earth we all get to call home. Maintaining and protecting the environment that surrounds us can seem challenging at times, but one easy way that you can help is by giving the power of plants a try in your daily diet. To help, here are two tasty vegan takes on Asian dishes.

What is Sustainable Art?
When I think of sustainable art, I think of creating sculptures from recycled materials. I also think of Spencer Shay from iCarly, who created many abstract pieces made from the most random things, like a plastic bottle robot. While I would call some of his works from the show sustainable, I don’t think the giant toast sculpture made from pounds and pounds of butter counts. iCarly was a hit show that many people watched, and this was my introduction to sustainable art and I bet many others too.

VSA’s Gather for Tet Show: Their President’s Perspective
Despite being a relatively new organization, VSA hosted a large Lunar New Year show, which they called the Gather For Tet Show. From fantastic performances to a large-scale betting game, the event was spectacular. Behind the scenes though, many people worked tirelessly for hours, days, months to pull off such a smooth show that lasted three to four hours. Amazed by the event, I had to interview the person running the whole thing, VSA’s own president, Kimmy Huynh.

Don’t miss out! Top 5 Underrated Asian Artists to Check Out
I love supporting the Asian community by listening to different Asian artists and sharing their music with others. Growing up, I was never exposed to modern music made by Asian Americans or Asians around the world as the community I lived in was predominantly white. As Asians artists make their mark on the media through the Shang-Chi soundtrack or even through Tik Tok trends, I personally can’t help but be super excited for them. It is so inspiring to see musicians that we identify with culturally succeed and share their talents with the world.
