Dear Parents,
To all the parents who are out there: No offense but there is something you do that irks me to the extreme! I am writing from experience. When my parents tell me to do a chore, I do it. No big deal. But often, while I’m doing the chore that THEY asked me to do, [...]
The New Scrubs Season
Scrubs has always been one of my favorite TV series. However, the current ninth season is not like the others. In this season, JD is now married to Elliot and they are expecting a baby. Also, this new season no longer focuses on Dr. Dorian (JD) but rather on the new med students whom the [...]
Where’s Our Peaceful Paradise?
Believe it or not, people my age get really stressed! School, chores, plus sports practices and all kinds of activities every week. It would be nice to kickback and relax. Adults go to spas all the time but there are no spas for people under 16. It really stinks that at most spas and resorts, the [...]
Did I Just Hear What I Think I Heard?
Do artists really believe that the only way to make a song great is to wrap it up in sexual innuendos and degrading lyrics? Obviously, they do, because people seem to be buying the songs. In our age, what we listen to on the radio is what we want to listen to. Most radio stations play songs that people request. So why are people’s standards so low?
Winter in Chicago: Not Too Fun!
Just recently, kids like me were gallavanting through the fresh fallen snow. There were snowball fights with the great packing snow, snow angels, and soft flakes falling from the sky. Ah, those days feel so far away now that it is so bitterly cold and icy outside! Snow is not fun at all when the [...]
No Artists, No Art
I recently read of a survey that showed that 96% of Americans greatly value art and are inspired by it. Most parents believe teaching the arts is just as important as teaching mathematics, science, English, history, and the like. 95% believe art is essential in preparing children for their futures. Despite all of this, a [...]
Overworked, Overwhelmed, and Under Paid-Wait, we don’t get paid at all
I literally can’t remember the last time I was bored because I had nothing to do. I ALWAYS have something to do. And, while that seems nice—pardon the cliché—appearances are deceiving. I am so ridiculously over-whelmed, it’s not even funny. I’m in APUSH, a part of four singing ensembles, two dance groups (one of which [...]
Screaming at Food
I went to dinner for a high school banquet with my classmates. The first appetizer was placed at the table. Yum – calamari. Before I was even passed the large plate, a scream from the table in front of me pierced my ears. “Ew! What is that?” someone screeched to the waiter. I was mortified to find it was one of my classmates.
Dealing with Vegetarianism
Vegetarianism is pretty common nowadays. Most people at least know a few others that have given up on meat, or on animal products all together. Still, lots of people get the wrong idea about vegetarians because of the ones they’ve met or heard of that choose to shout their choices out at anyone who dares [...]
The Radio is soooooo Wrong!!!!!!
I like to listen to all different types of music. Country, Hip Hop, R&B, Jazz, and House. But lately, I’ve been realizing that there is a lot of profanity and strong feelings in music. Sometimes, I think rappers and singers are making these kinds of songs just to get the money and 15 minutes of [...]
