And You Thought Skrillex Was Cool: Top Millennial Music Power Players

With the recent social net trend being nostalgic or “retro” fashion and music circa 1990-2009 I thought it was high time I give all my Millennial readers a shout out. Although there are some fads that should stay buried in the past (I’m looking at you cheesy choker necklaces and platform sneakers) I got to admit that our generation...

Willkommen Freunde!: Fun Facts and Tips when touring Germany!

As many of my dashing readers know, my siblings and I are the latest editions to a long line of proud Germans. With Krieger and Venable on my mothers side and Stover, Heinreich, and Backovic on my fathers side it is impossible for anyone not to know our Deutsch roots. However with that said, many people who aren’t “In...

Brace Yourself, Winter’s Coming!: How to dress fashionably for the cold

With the leaves turning and the winds churning bringing with them the first chill of winter I thought it high time to update my wardrobe. Although I cherish my moth-eaten woolen cardigans and decades old cashmere sweaters handed down to me from Grandmother Joan herself, I have recently found myself in need of a few new essentials. As I...

Finding the right Brony

Thank you for stopping by and checking out my blog. My name is Monica Velasquez, and I’m currently a writer for The Bull. It is the Pierce College student-run magazine under the direction of Genna Gold. Check out our website at thebullmag.com. The goal of my blog is to give you an inside look of the making the magazine, including the article...

If you post on Meetup.com, they will come

My search for the prefect Brony was going no where fast. I had walked around campus and found guys who would point and accuse each other like if it was some kind of sickness. “I’m not, but you know who is…” I would constantly hear that from guys who I would approach.  Either that or “No! I’m not a Brony,...

One is the loneliest Brony

I had done it. I had found a Brony. His name was Trinidad Gomez, and he was one of the administrators of the “Meetup” that I had gone to. His story of how he was in deep depression when he found the fandom was becoming common among Bronies that I had met. Shy at first, Gomez let others share their...

Makings of a good story

Hello fellow bloggers and welcome back! So as of last time our stories for The Bull Magazine lead my classmates and I to places we’ve never been, which allowed us to meet new and interesting people. But along this path, we’ve found that at times finding and writing a good story can require a lot of work and digging. There...

Don’t judge a book by its cover

Even though interviewing others can be frightful, it can also be informative. So far I’ve learned that there are all kinds of people out there and just because someone looks different from most, doesn’t mean they are any different on the inside. I had the opportunity of interviewing a student from Pierce who happens to be a small person...

Shooting for fun

Welcome back fellow bloggers and readers. This week two fellow classmates/photographers and I met up with Emelyne. Finally we had our photo shoot scheduled after weeks of us being too busy, we decided to meet at the Pierce College Farm. Once there we noticed how vast the farm really was. The land seemed to stretch on and on. We got...

Crunch time

Welcome back bloggers! It has been crazy busy in the news room since the last time I blogged. Everyone is running around getting all the last minute touches done with their stories. Our deadline is right around the corner and I’m not going to lie, things have gone from stress free to stressful. With everyone’s schedule being so packed,...
