When the Loco staff began, we had three members (plus one amazingly dedicated supervisor). Our driving force to create this magazine was to begin a creative outlet where our peers could produce quality work and express our opinions in an open environment that was dedicated to expressing our opinions on pop culture, media, and current events. Every major media outlet…
By sitting in an audience we become submerged into the consciousness of the show. We go into the hearts of these characters that are placed before us. We might not always agree with them, but we also might get the chance to see our lives played out on stage. But, with every word they speak, a dialogue is being created for people.

Let’s not mince words. I’m an asshole. I’m not “spirited,” I’m not “cynical,” or any other delicate way of describing someone like me. And I’m sure as fuck not “sassy.” Don’t sugarcoat it with silly words like that. I know what I am, and I’m proud of it.
When you slather something on your body every day, you probably want to know what’s in it. That being said, ingredient labels these days certainly don’t make it easy. After all, who – other than a chemistry major – knows what the hell tetrasodium EDTA is? (Hint: it’s not something you’d put down on your grocery list.) Behold: Lush Cosmetics….
Everyone loves sex. There is no shame in that. But feelings, on the other hand…those are what you’re taught to be ashamed of. We’re constantly told not to get attached because we’ll look clingy. We even warn ourselves not to get attached because we’re so afraid of getting hurt.
