Foresight Entertainment (March 17th – 23rd)

3/25/2019 Andrew Greenway, Editor

Hello Cougars & Cougettes, we at the Harbinger would like to welcome you to the inaugural edition of Foresight Entertainment. Your weekly crystal ball for all the best movies, television, and facets of pop culture.

As a community college, we often times turn our heads to the sky and our eyes forward, focusing on our goals and the next deadline that comes our way. We check our syllabi for the next test, email our teachers and supervisors for our next assignment, and come into the classroom ready to tackle the next lesson plan with gusto. Yet, as we march to our goals and toil to turn ambition into reality, we shouldn’t forget the importance of rest and relaxation. Because despite what it may seem, taking the time to allow your mind and body to settle on what you’ve learned is much better in the long term than cramming all at once.

And there are few ways better to set your mind at ease than to curl up with a good book or watch a short episode of your favorite show to take the edge off a long study session. But, just as with anything in life, moderation is key.

Thusly, we at the Harbinger compel you to take your studies seriously and to seriously have fun with it.

Now, without further ado, let’s take a look at what’s new!

For all our movie buffs out there, we’ll be seeing a parade of new releases hitting theatres and streaming services near you.
