Coming from , the transition to Le Moyne was scary, but exciting! I was in a completely new environment, alone, separated from my family and hometown friends, and I had to learn how to become an “adult." I entered Le Moyne as a Pre-Med Biology student with a minor in education, but after two years I completely changed career paths. Now I am a Communication major with a minor in Spanish. My time at Le Moyne has been nothing short of amazing. Coming from a big city, it was great to come to a completely polar environment that I would typically not visit. I have met incredible people who today I can't imagine my life without. I have met teachers and staff members who have now become family, and I have made unforgettable memories along the way all because I decided to become a Dolphin. Now, as a senior, it’s sad to see my last semester already flashing before my eyes, but I cannot wait to see what the future holds. As of now, I want to work in a PR agency or somewhere in the media/entertainment industry as a publicist. But, until then I’m enjoying every last minute as a Dolphin!

TOM VAZQUEZ ’16 CHEERS CHEERS& & JEERS GUY

Honesty is important. So I’m going to be honest with all of you readers out there who expect to see articles in the paper every week: I completely forgot to write Cheers and Jeers this week. So like any good journalist I’ve decided to stand on the shoulders of two of my Cheers and Jeers predecessors and compile some of their funniest contributions. Did I leave out some funnier ones? Most likely. Does this week’s edition make any sense? Perhaps. Have I learned my lesson about procrastination? Not a chance.

Honorable Cheer to “SpongeBob SquarePants” (Drew Acquaviva, Honorable Jeer to Stick 10.11.2011) Figure Families (Tyler Sperazza, I’m ready! …to start talking about this cheer. “SpongeBob” arrived pretty late to the ‘90s Nicktoon gang, having premiered in Summer 9.6.2012) 1999. However, it has become one of the most successful animated I am not one who is inclined to road rage. That being shows ever, outlasting even Nickelodeon’s ever-popular “Rugrats.” said there is nothing that makes me want to sideswipe It should come as no surprise, because “SpongeBob” is awesome. another vehicle so much as those damn stick figure That show helped me learn important things, like how all squirrels window clings on the rear window of a soccer-mom- are from and that squids are poor clarinetists. The show even mobile. First issue, why do all the kids look the same!? has set itself up for timelessness by having jokes that appeal to both Can their parents just not tell them apart? Second, what children and adults (or people like me, who grew up with the show is their function? Do they notify emergency responders and can re-watch old episodes and find new things about them to of his many people they should be attempting to save enjoy). For example, the entire Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy series in the event of an accident? And dwell on this, what’s is a reference to 1960s-era , complete with the wonderful the proper waiting period before the awkward reality Ernest Borgnine voicing Mermaid Man. Parents can enjoy the parody of peeling the puppy figure off the window once Fido while their children go put on a belt and set it to “W” for “Wumbo.” I’d kicks the bucket? go on, but I anything can’t do right since because pickles.

Jeer Runner-Up to the 2000’s (Drew Cheer Runner-Up to Naps Aquaviva, 4.19.2012) I have a love-hate relationship with 2000’s-era Disney movies. On (Tyler Sperazza, 3.14.2013) the one hand, movies like “Finding Nemo,” “The Incredibles” and the first I wish I was taking one right now. As I write this “Pirates” movie became instant classics and are just as entertaining as week, I am reminded of how tired we all are. I look the movies that defined my childhood. But somehow, they’re just not the around at a room full of people, who already on a same. It’s like switching milk brands: it’s the same 2% you know and love, Tuesday are half-dead, caffeine addled and ready but it’s just a little… unfamiliar. It’s hard to put your finger on it (giggity), to fall over. I harken back to the days of Dablon, but not being traditionally animated or being closely tied to my childhood when there were naps to be had for everyone, not prevents me from connecting with 2000’s movies. The one exception is just the top 1%. We need to try to return to a time “: The Lost Empire.” That movie is traditionally animated and of equitable distribution of naptime, like Pre-K… early enough in the 2000’s to be rightly associated with classic ‘90’s such a happier time. Disney. Beyond that, however, I consider 2000’s Disney to be the Dark Ages of the company. This godless period had the audacity to hire Larry the Cable Guy for a movie. Don’t even get me started on the Black Death known as the Lohan dynasty. Suffice to say, Disney should take this new decade as a chance to move in a new direction, but for the love of God, that new direction cannot be One Direction. Archived Champion Cheer to .com (Tyler Sperazza, Archived Champion Jeer to The Housing 1.31.2013) Lottery (Drew Aquaviva, 5.3.2012) Need that $159.00, 12-page foreign language workbook Every February starts the same: half of campus is abuzz with stress by tomorrow, and only want to pay $2.99? Amazon. Need about where they’re going to live next year. Plans are made and friendships to find an obscure book that your professor has been using are destroyed, both with such speed it would make Einstein dizzy. Every for the last twenty years and has been out of print for the year, Residence Life (or whatever they call themselves now) says that last forty? Amazon. Need to find hot singles in your area? they’ve revamped the process to make it less stressful: “There are TVs to Craigslist. The point is that Amazon has everything short of watch along! We added days in between!” Great, so that way people have Mant’i Teo’s girlfriend for sale on its site. I don’t understand another 24 hours to mentally prepare for the inevitability of being a junior how people can spend money at the campus bookstore on living in St. Mary’s? It doesn’t matter how many changes you make. The actual textbooks… Why would you ever want to pay that much fact remains that you’re trying to organize a campus-wide game of musical money when there is such a cheaper alternative? Barnes and chairs, except that instead of one chair, it’s an entire building of rooms that Noble is like the evil empire of bookstores, and Amazon is the is absent. The sad reality is that changing the process to an entire “Hunger tough, gritty rebel force that has begun to conquer the galaxy Games”-esque competition as described in our inaugural edition of The of written knowledge... Landshark might be where we’re headed. I have hope that one day, there will be a housing process that doesn’t suck eggs, but then we’d have to deal with the horsemen and the reign of fire and the end of days, so it’s just better to plan ahead. And if it turns out that your plans don’t work then we proved last fall that the quad has lots of room for shacks.
