Goodbye Basis Bugle

Posted on Author Jonathan Zhang Comment(0)

Couple weeks back, I finally graduated high school (thank god). Additionally, I said all my goodbyes and farewells to friends, teachers, etc. However, I still have to say adios to one last thing: the Basis Bugle, the club that I’ll cherish forever. 

I’ve been putting off writing my final piece for some time now mostly due to the fact that my productivity reaches record lows in the summer months, and that I’ve had difficulty coming to terms with actually bidding adieu to this club. I’ve learned so much from this club, and most importantly,  it’s helped me nurture a passion for writing, specifically in the culinary and comedic realms. I plan to continue this in college and hopefully my writing blesses those that mistakenly click on it. 

As for now, I’ve come to terms with leaving the Bugle and all the memories behind. Nothing good lasts forever, and I’m glad to have enjoyed it for the past three years. Additionally, I feel like a mother watching their child leave the nest despite the fact that I’m only 18 and lack a uterus. Anyway, bye-bye Bugle, hope our paths cross again in the future!

Farewell, 

Jonathan Zhang, former Editor-in-Chief

He prefers coffee over red bull because he can chug coffee much faster, allowing caffeine to reach his bloodstream quicker. He is also a certified "foodie" and likes to pig out at restaurants. His cooking skills are subpar and usually result in something inedible. Additionally, he thoroughly enjoys comedy and cites Irish demigod Conan O'Brien as his inspiration. He also enjoys watching legends such as Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. He hopes to have a normal sleep schedule one day.

Spaghetti Western Pt. V

Posted on Author Matthew Bala

All ringing after the explosion, he turns to find only sundered limbs and expired blood; he rushes past his work and bares the second stick and lights its fuse. The dynamite sends into the base of the western wall and some erratic movement can still be heard in the smokescreen. Another boom shakes the wall […]
