Quick takes on life from our editors
Marriage equality
It makes me sick to my stomach that Idaho is spending taxpayer dollars to fight against marriage equality. Our state is clearly on the wrong side of history and it should embarrass us all. Please vote in November.

American matrimony
We’ve lost sight on what marriage means a long time ago, so I’m not surprised by the current same-sex debacle. Just a little sad.

After I graduate
I’m looking forward to moving to a state with priorities that don’t include spending my tax dollars on a losing battle to stop a group of people from having the same rights as everyone else.

Blue bugs
Little blue bugs seem to be taking over Moscow. They swarm me whenever I ride my bike or walk anywhere and they seem to be multiplying. Is this how it all ends?

Bugs
It’s getting biblical with bug swarms up in Moscow. If I didn’t know better, I would say we were being besieged by swarms of locusts. However, it is just ash aphids. I will save my panic for next week.

Ready for the weekend
I can’t wait to sleep in, avoid doing homework until Sunday night, go shopping or whatever I decide to do. I’ll probably eat and play videogames.

Philadelphia
I just want a steak sandwich at the same tavern Ben Franklin ate at.

Monday
The only reason I’m excited for a new week is to see Blot Magazine floating around campus.
—Katelyn
Boats and Bros
I get to play in CDA all weekend with my best friends. Please, try and beat that.

Heart of a hermit
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and I took the one less traveled by to avoid making awkward eye contact with people.
—Erin
Candy
So hard to resist all the candy sales going on right now. Wish I was still young enough to go trick-or-treating.
—Korbin
Feeling sheepish
I’m off to a weekend-long celebration of sheep and shepherding cultures. Things might get a bit wooly.
—Daphne
Good advice
Take criticism seriously but not personally.
