Rebecca is a senior and has been involved with The Miami Student since her freshman year. She’s from the Bay Area in California, so she grew up just outside of San Francisco.
She has written for every section, but her favorites are food, style and, of course, opinion.
She is a member of Alpha Phi, a lover of long walks accompanied by a podcast, listening to music with her friends and writing.
You might run into her at the rec, where she works out to de-stress, or find her in Armstrong watching YouTube videos and eating her favorite sandwich from Toasted Bagel (and maybe sipping on a Bang … if she’s feeling desperate).
When she’s back home, she loves to go on hikes through the redwood trees, go to the beach and go out to eat at overpriced restaurants.
After graduation, she plans to continue pursuing writing.

So, yes, weed is fun. But the injustices surrounding it are dangerous and systemically racist.
But it meant everything to him, which is why it meant something to me.
I’m from California. I like avocado toast and anything dairy free, and I watch my added sugars. My boyfriend is from Connecticut, so burgers, mozzarella sticks, breakfast sandwiches and blue Gatorade are all up his alley. We have a hard time eating food together.
Obviously things are different right now, but that’s why it’s important to actually try to engage when you get the chance.
I put time and effort into my airport outfits. I always have. The night before my flight, I lay it out down to the socks and underwear at the foot of my bed like I did on nights before field trips in elementary school.
