Misha-gaye DaCosta (MD)

Youthlink (YL): Do you see yourself reading the Youthlink 10 years from now?

MD: No, because I don't think I'll have time. I'll be busy training or focusing on my profession at that time of my life.

YL: What can you get from your Youthlink?

MD: Well, I can learn lyrics to songs; get some extra help with schoolwork, from the CXC section, get tips on dating and the latest entertainment info.

YL: What would you like to see in the next issue of the Youthlink?

CB: Hold on, I really have to think about this one ... What about jokes? Not corny jokes, good jokes. They could be Jamaican jokes, but I think I'd like to see some jokes.

YL: Do you prefer your Youthlink text-heavy or photo-heavy?

CB: Hmm ... I'd say text-heavy, because when it has more text, it tends to be more informative and, depending on what it is about, text may be more appropriate. I also think it should be text-heavy as I believe the aim of the paper should be to inform the youth. I think pictures only entertain.
