Yesterday I went down to the Paradise Rock Club to get my ticket for Sleigh Bells.  Before I went, I checked the PRC website to make sure they were open.  While on the site, I saw that Travie McCoy is also coming this spring.  For those of you who don't know Travie McCoy, he is the...

Hillside Heaven

Up until last semester I was an Antonio's girl through and through. My reason for departing from the famed drunk haven of Amherst had only to do with my digestive health. Turns out I'm gluten intolerant so I can't eat there anymore because very sadly Antonio's does not offer gluten free. So up...

Bad Fashion? Get Rescued.

This week I took a snowy, slippery walk down Newbury St and wound up getting rescued by a buy-sell-trade store. I'd heard the store, Rescue, had some sweet merch but wasn't expecting much more than a musty place with mothball scented clothes. I've never been SO wrong. Brother and sister, Paul and...

A Gym In South County? What?

Since I was a freshman at URI, I've always thought it was terrible that there was no decent gym in the area, other than the one at the bottom of campus which is free. The thing is, URI's gym always has a ton of people there, it's hard to get a machine, and you have to pay extra for classes. The...

Froston: Snow Parking Bans

Yes Froston, we're getting more snow. I really could have sworn the farmers almanac said we weren't going to get much, but what do farmers know anyway. After reading Chelsea's article on URI's parking situation, I figured there's probably lots of college students in Boston (uh, duh) who are...

Where The Hell Am I Going To Park?

Every single person that has ever been a commuter knows that the parking absolutely sucks. With the percentage of students living off campus rising every year, the lots are getting worse and worse. People will park ANYWHERE now. I know they do it because they're pissed off, and let's face it, who...
