Blog #2: San Francisco trumps San Jose

Let’s not kid ourselves—there’s nothing good about San Jose. It’s frankly not worth the effort to try and dream up fun things to do in this running sore of a town.

Let’s just talk about San Francisco.

I love San Francisco.

Here’s a list of fun things to do there:

 

The Mission/SOMA

-Dog Eared Books (I cannot recommend this enough.)

-X21 Modern (It’s a treasure trove of oddities, B movie props and effeminate Elvis paintings.)

-McSweeney’s 826 Valencia store (Watch their mascot/leader, Karl, in the viewing station.)

Blog #1: Student Union churns out fat students

Like all university students, people attending SJSU face many issues over the course of their college careers.

Recently, it seems that student burdens have intensified.

From increased student fees to reduced class sizes, SJSU-ers are feeling the weight of issues beyond their control, seemingly now more than ever.

Often, the stress and frustration students feel over these serious academic issues translates to helplessness or apathy.

Overwhelmed, students tend to ignore the problems, leaving the issues to grow and become even more unmanageable.
