The name was found from the Greek goddess of fortune, chance, providence and fate. Tyche was said to be the daughter of “Oceanus” and “Tethys” with an evil sister named “Nemesis” for her…
Teams, no matter in what shape, form or way, are the best way I know of to get your adrenaline rushing, whether you’re on your school’s newspaper crew, or on a basketball team, hockey, leadership, lacrosse (my personal favorite) or even newly-established Quidditch teams. It’s not just about a sport itself; when you join a team, you’ll…
Hannah was sure she wasn’t very welcome here the moment she walked in the door. It was her very first day in James T. Kirk Middle School as a seventh grader. At the sound of the door, every student whipped their heads round and seemed to all stare at her disapprovingly, as if they were…

Sure enough, I checked on iTunes and the Beatles were nowhere to be found! This…
Three days after my own birthday and the day after my friend’s, my parents took us out to Boston Pizza to celebrate with a meal. For appetizers we had nachos, which would have been good if not for the cheese; it seemed too much like liquid to me, and the salsa was much too spicy…
This University of Calgary play takes place in the 19th century, where a man named Lelio just can’t stop telling lies! Oh, but he calls them “Witty Inventions.” This production did what it was supposed to: it kept me entertained all night. I even held my breath at some points, it was hard just to…
