Sudoku
Sudoku is made up of a 9 x 9 playing field with numbers from 1 to 9 scattered throughout. The object of the game is to fill every column, row and 3 x 3 box with the numbers 1 through 9, without repeating any numbers in any given column, row or box.
The difficulty level of the puzzles will change from week to week. Some will be easy. Some will be moderate. Some will make you want to cry. It’s gonna be a grab bag, so hang on.
If you get stuck, the answers can be found here, but don’t give in unless you absolutely cannot do it! What fun is finishing it if you had to cheat?
Horoscopes
By Monsieur Green Gemini
ARIES
March 24 - April 19
Your life’s been hectic lately; take a deep breather and try to relax. Don’t make any big decisions yet. If you do, they will be impulsive decisions and will hurt you in the long run.
TAURUS
April 20 - May 20
Your first big test is coming up and you are still foggy on the material. Use the professor’s office hours. Not only will it help you know the material, but it will show the professor that you care.
GEMINI
May 21 - June 21
Your parents miss you. You haven’t been calling them as much as you should and haven’t seen them since move-in day. Make a surprise visit home this weekend. Who knows, they may even give you some cash for when you head back to school.
CANCER
June 22 - July 22
You haven’t been feeling well lately. Take some vitamin C and try to stop this cold in its tracks. If that doesn’t work, try going to the health center.
LEO
July 23 - August 22
Life has been slow for you lately. Now would be a good time to start that new hobby you have been dying to try. Maybe even try joining a club.
VIRGO
August 23 - September 22
You have been putting off asking out the person that sits next to you in class. Keep putting it off. That person has an eye for someone else. It would only get awkward.
LIBRA
September 23 - October 22
This year has been a blast for you at UMass. Since you are having so much fun, you have been forgetting about your friends at other schools. Make plans with them now to hang out over Columbus Day weekend. Then they will be happy and you can still have fun here.

October 23 - November 21
You need to get out more. Call some friends and go catch a movie this Tuesday. Getting out will help improve your general mood.
SAGITTARIUS
November 22 - December 21
This is your week. You can do no wrong. Take a big chance on asking someone out or skip studying for that test. It sounds risky but it will all work out for the best.
CAPRICORN
December 22 - January 19
Next week is a tricky one for you. Your boss scheduled you for extra hours and you have a lot of school work. Plan your time out in advance and you will be able to get everything done.
AQUARIUS
January 20 - February 18
You got that new video game last week and it has been controlling your life ever since. Make sure you are still going to class and not letting your grades slip because of it.
PISCES
February 19 - March 20
Your room’s a mess. Take a few minutes and pick it up a little. Your roommate will appreciate it and you may even find some lost treasures.
Poetic Perfection
“?”
By Tyler Slomkowski
What are friends?
A shoulder to lean on,
Or a joke to laugh at?
As I erase the true colors,
I see that I am alone.
What is trust?
A secret to tell,
Or a leaky explanation?
If I confide, I can’t lie,
This is my breakdown.
Am I a friend to trust?
A question to ponder,
Or a truth to expose?
Others don’t reflect me,
I’m friends with a mirror.
These are the questions I ask,
As I wonder…
Baggage
By Malissa Vieira
The days they go so fast
I don’t have time to appreciate anymore
I don’t think I ever did
Or I ever could
I am so busy soul searching
It would seem
I’ve lost a part of my soul
While searching
Yes, I know, they’ve told me
Nothing in this life comes easy
But why does everything
Everything
Have to be so damn hard
While I was deep down there
Looking for who I am supposed to be
A part of me crept on by
Ever so silently
I am so lost within my own turmoil
But isn’t everyone?
I wonder when the good years will come
Or have they already gone?
The days
They go so fast
I wonder
When I will have time
To unload this baggage
I carry
Darkness Divine
By Shara Marie
Eyes meet
and then,
quickly retreat.
All refusing to reveal
what lies beneath,
blues, browns, hazels and greens.
Eyes see
and then,
quickly flee.
All able to perceive
what lies beneath,
blues, browns, hazels and greens.
What is seen,
is the same.
Shame, shame,
shame. Unable to fade,
unwilling to place the blame,
on the eyes that hide away.
Darkness, so divine,
eyes are all alike under this light.
