Did you wear green? The celebration of St. Patrick’s Day has spread from Ireland to many parts of the world, but who is this Saint Patrick that this day is celebrating? Surprisingly he is not Irish at all but he was born in Roman Britain. Most would know him as the man who drove out…
Hey guys, I recently stumbled upon this awesome website called www.youthcanada.ca. As I was browsing around, an article in particular grabbed my attention immediately: A Definitive Guide To Winning Scholarships.

Disrespect, Torture, Rape, and Argument, Nowhere to turn, Noplace to run Dead bodies lying in the street, Tutsis…
*Spoiler Alert* When people watch the trailer of this movie most would think this is a horror film, but after I watched the movie it was actually not scary at all.

Basically, the feed is a computer chip that is installed…
Few weeks ago, my sister told me to do some YOGA with her every night. Since I was considering trying out a new fitness regimen, I said yes immediately. As me and my sister, most teenage girls (and boys!) are interested in getting fit. Getting fit and healthy is often encouraged by those in the mainstream…
