If you are a student that wants to travel the world but is in need of some tips, read this article by Sabina on GirlVSGlobe. It has a great student perspective and some very helpful tips! I hope to make use of them myself soon.

If you moved cities within Canada and need some encouragement on your experience here, or even just need to feel understood, this article by Renée Bélanger might be for you: https://t.co/psE0yDzl0N #COMS367

If you are interested in listening to more Latino music, you should definitely check out the band 'Athenea y su Candela'! The singer, Athenea, has been in Montreal since 2016 making music and performing all over the city. Read about her here: #COMS367 https://t.co/Y1ZoedqsKB

If you are an international student like me, or have even moved cities for uni, I wrote an article about the feelings that come with moving to a new city. Read it on the Chelsea House blog, or here: #COMS367 https://t.co/W2w3z0IBdu

Since a lot of us use Twitter on the daily, or even for classes (#COMS367) this article felt appropriate to share. After a lot of back and forth in negotiations, Elon Musk is buying Twitter! https://t.co/26e786VP70

@christ_ietweets Ah I remember when this happened! I was not part of it, but I think it is amazing that so many students gathered for the same purpose all at once

@KateOKatt Jajaja this explains why I have fallen in love so many times during the pandemic. I think it's even kind of sweet that we unconsciously make up people's faces as more attractive :)

@attsarah55 I had no idea about this! It is crazy the things people will do to avoid getting vaccinated and to get money. I would have never thought it was possible to get so many vaccines either.

J Balvin received and accepted the award for "Best Afro-Latino Artist." Considering Afro-Latinos are systemically oppressed, what he did is deeply offensive. He has also demonstrated to be racist on different occasions. Read this op-ed on it: https://t.co/iXv0GkhWIz #COMS367

As someone who has always been an immigrant, and is now studying away from family, I do feel immigration guilt every once in a while. A project by LBSU students collected stories on the subject: https://t.co/nrLE2ZBHsW #COMS367 Worth reading even if you can't relate :)

Might or might not have shed a tear with this reflection on self-love by Kendra Sharp. Highly recommend if you are struggling with finding or defining self love -

In 2021, I re-purposed an essay I had written for a class to make an op-ed for The Link. I tend to write about LATAM as it is what I am most passionate about (and proud of, without a doubt). Read it here :) https://t.co/XIrnpqfXAY #COMS367

With Fashion Week going on, I wondered about its negative effects. I found an article from two years ago stating both negative effects and a positive response from the public. Very interesting if you are into fashion or trends in general :) via https://t.co/Yx9DwvinO1 #COMS367

As "Balaclava's" are becoming more popular, the question arises: fashion item or reminder of racism? How come this is acceptable and hijabs are not? Read more: https://t.co/EsVzcDdZ6u

Bad Bunny's "TE DESEO LO MEJOR" music video is based on The Simpsons. It can be seen on YouTube or Disney+, though besides being a music video, I think it serves as a critique of Homer and how careless he acted in his relationship! I loved it. via https://t.co/Pp8WM4IJuN #COMS367

@attsarah55 I'm going to Bad Bunny's concert no doubt! This makes me so happy :) #COMS367

Though I loved Encanto and the positive response to it, I wish more people would pay attention to that when Abuelo Pedro was killed, it represented timeless conflicts in Colombia. To read more, check: https://t.co/QiC8JGB82b #COMS367

@ssmittygv_25 Ah I remember seeing the TikTok about it! I did not it had already been released! Thank you for sharing :) #COMS367

@christ_ietweets This is so cool! I would love to meet my doppelganger jaja. I would want to know if they are the same down to hands, teeth, and everything! #COMS367

For another COMS class, I was trying to research Latino film critics and could barely find one. I ended up finding this article about (the lack of) Latino representation in the film critic spectrum: https://t.co/XCA9HIxxZI #COMS367
