Last semester I attended one library event and one library event only: Zine-making with William McHenry. When I entered the Loud Section on that fateful evening, I had no idea what a zine was, but I was intrigued by the notion of putting “writing or artwork into a pamphlet,” probably because I am about as much of an English major as you can get.

I’ve been waiting in the morning
that used to be night since this cage was set. Peace is in my arms, cradled there like an infant - mine - as I lie upon the grass.
As quarantine has made abundantly clear, writing is the most essential tool of a Rocker. I cannot even begin to explain how much more typing I do every week because of the new online platform, and I’m an English major, so I can imagine how absolutely terrifying it must be to those of you who are not used to pumping out a few 500-word responses every day. In my time at Simon’s Rock, I’ve developed a bit of a formula for the long-form response journal, so I’d like to take advantage of these troubling times and share it with you.

I almost fall when I touch the ground before the familiar “dog in yard” gateway. Does quarantine have you sleeping your days away? Are you watching so much Netflix you’ve forgotten how real life works? Has your entertainment fallen so low that you refresh your school email in hopes of more useless updates? If you answered yes to any of these questions, here’s a list of fifty things to do besides break social distancing boundaries so that we can all go outside soon :)

At approximately 5:30 p.m. Simon’s Rock Time (5:45ish), Aimée Michel hurried down the second floor Daniel Arts Center hallway. As a professor of theatre here at Simon’s Rock, Aimée is always headed somewhere. We had arranged to meet to talk about a one-act I had been working on and then interview for her profile. Expecting a short meeting, we’d scheduled for about an hour. Needless to say, after exceeding our original time by almost a half-hour we agreed to continue the interview the following day.
Now that Valentine’s Day itself has come and gone, the second (and final) installment to the Valentine’s playlist marks an end to the season. The playlist can be heard here.
