Less Than Jake

is a machine. And for the college-age Satre, picture a 6-foot tall human gorilla. Will’s status as a US Naval Academy officer shows he won’t back down from a competition or challenge, and marathons are no different. These men train by running more than 40 miles a week. This mileage consists of interval and hill training alternating with the ‘recovery’ days of 7 miles. When asked if the younger Satre ever stops to walk when he trains, he responds with a strict “No,” as if even the simple thought…

during school was All Time Low and Warped Tour. Throughout the school year, I saved my money for band merchandise and tried to get myself mentally and physically prepared for the concert. I do not know if it was me or if the school year seemed longer than it should have been. To be honest, I do not think I have ever been so impatient in my life until that school year happened. The day had come. I did not sleep the night before because I thought about how many bruises I will get from the mosh…

prepare for our pre game warm up. We do our yoga warm up then go to the offensive drill. Preparing for every single play. We have gone over them over and over in our heads then finally being able to execute them on the field we would be playing on in less that 20 minutes. We finish the drill just on time as the weber state drill team presents the flag and the national anthem begins to play. I watch the sideline opposite me. I look for the players i'll be facing and try to remember the numbers i…

The sweat is dripping off of his face. His arms burn and his body feels like a great stone is pressing him down into the dirt. “Down. Up. Down. Up.” A voice yells above him. Lieutenant Commander Mooney towers over the cadet and the others struggling to do pushups. His voice rings out loud and clear. The message is simple, “Down, up, down, up.” There is nothing else for the cadet. The cadet glances around the field, eyes squinting. The sound of his heartbeat booms with each movement he…

Her relationship with Chloe is better; I think a part of that may be the fact that Chloe is the spitting image of her with long blonde hair and green eyes. I don 't know what my father looks like, but I think I remind her of him with my long red hair and blue eyes, the only thing I got from her was the fact that my skin could tan. Her way of dealing with me now is pretending that I don 't exist. As long as I provide the money she doesn 't talk to me, she has never asked me how I earn the money,…

As a college student and teenager, I am constantly in the state of figuring out who I am and what I want to be. On rare occasions some people already have an idea of who they are,what they want to become, and have their whole life figured out. On the other hand, the rest of us are still trying to figure out our place in society. During our teenage years, we are in that middle ground between childhood and adulthood and it’s a very rough transition for some people. Since people are still confused…

I’ve come to realize that although there are rules and policies that we uphold, as with any job, it’s a position of trial and error, more so than many other jobs. This is because in dealing with so many different people, there is no “one size, fits all” formula. Developing a community is a process that takes time, and is something that can’t be done without genuinely caring about residential…
