Ah, social networks. How have you become something other than me telling the details of my life at one particular moment? How have you become a place to complain, and place really bad quotes that you got from a song that you think no one else listens to? Why must I log on to my favorite social network... Read more »

Don’t you hate this time of year? The cold weather makes your bones hurt and after awhile it makes you very sick. I got sick on Friday night while I was over at my friend’s house and I am still sick. I came to school with a low fever, a stuffy nose, and an awful cough that is extremely loud. Why... Read more »

The social environment of high school can be vicious. I look around and see students teasing other students, people gossiping about one another, kids spreading rumors, and making harsh judgements. Some deem this as “just a part of high school”, something inevitable and natural. I however,... Read more »

A baby is born every 10 seconds. Did you know that? Every 10 seconds! I bet you just counted to 10 didn’t you? It’s fine, we all do. But just think about that?
