Klipsun Magazine

Producing an issue of Klipsun is not an easy task. Playing phone tag with sources, revising stories 20 times, working in the office until 2 in the morning, balancing a load of upper-level classes and eating Doritos as a substitute for two major meals of the day takes a toll on one's body and mind.

Only the strong survive the production process, and you have to possess a deep passion and love for journalism to make it that far.

Consequently, each story in this issue has an underlying theme of passion that mirrors the hard work we put into our …

Klipsun Magazine

It’s tradition at Klipsun to use a theme for the second issue of the quarter. It gives the staff writers a stronger focus on their story because they have a specific set of boundaries given to them by the editors. We decided on the theme of ‘Youth Culture,” hoping for intimate portraits of what it’s like to be a young person in Whatcom County today.

This issue is particularly special, because every Klipsun read er has been young. We’ve all experienced being at awkward ages, trying to discover and establish identities, reaching goals and stumbling through hardships. My hope for …

Passion. Discovery. Perseverance.

This issue of Klipsun wasn’t intentionally subcategorized into these three themes. But after careful examination, the words passion, discovery and perseverance stood out as appropriate descriptions for this collection of stories.

Passion exceeds being just a hobby. Scars and burns from spinning fire are medals of honor. Sharing the most intimate form of art, the human body, is a way of life. A man creates his fine wine by pouring his heart and soul into every glass.

Discovery distributes knowledge. A new technological advancement has advantages and repercussions, while a way to classify personality traits travels across …

Last summer I spent 20 hours per week working as a public relations intern at the Whatcom Museum of History & Art. Although I wore a nametag that said “VOLUNTEER,” I was not doing the work entirely for free — I was receiving university credit. When my supervisor asked me to write a feature story for the member newsletter about museum volunteers, I was surprised to discover that hundreds of people contribute their time and energy (for free) to this downtown landmark. As they contribute to the museum, they are ultimately improving the Bellingham community.

Although Klipsun doesn’t normally have …

Klipsun Magazine

Like many of you, my time is limited. To keep myself orga­ nized, every day I write a list of things to do. It’s always a very long list of things such as, “Finish essay,” “Go to gym” or “Do laundry.”

But after reading the stories in this issue of Klipsun, I was inspired to write a more important list of “Things to Do.” I wrote a list of things to do in my lifetime. Several of the stories in this issue feature local people who have made sacrifices for the sake of others or have set incredible goals for …
