I was fortunate enough to be able to attend Storybook Theater’s rendition of William Golding’s Lord of the Flies. I walked out of the theater with a single collective emotion: horror. The audience was able to journey with the characters through their spiral into insanity and with the close proximity of the actors to the audience,…

If you immediately assumed this article to be an advertisement, or perhaps just more internet spam, you would not be entirely wrong. I admit this with some degree of shame; generally, I take great lengths to avoid being the person who is constantly popping up on your Facebook page or Twitter feed, the one you see in…

Whether it be a calming environment to do homework in when home won’t cut it, an inspirational space for your art, or just straight chillin’, having a go-to spot for all occasions is a valuable commodity. When it comes to cafes, not everything will cut it. Though we may complain about their high prices, atmosphere…
At first, going to the opera in 2016 felt like going to a Nickelback concert, well, any time after 2005. Presented with the opportunity to get two free tickets to Die Tote Stadt, a German opera currently playing at the Jubilee, my initial pique in interest can be mostly attributed to the sheer randomness of the idea, as…
Valentines day is quickly approaching, and if you need an inexpensive, good-quality, and unique gift, you are in luck! Â Why?

This time of the year is always jam-packed with celebrations, and for many, New Year’s Eve festivities are one of the last celebrations to take place in this holiday season before we must grudgingly drag ourselves back to school and hunker down for exams. That being said, I’ve resolved to spend this New Year’s Eve…

 On Tuesday, I had the opportunity to attend the first performance of Alberta Theatre Projects’ Legend Has it– and on their “Tweet Night,” no less! As a “drama kid,” whipping out my phone in the middle of the show to post about my experience on Twitter felt a little raunchy, and more than a little unorthodox. But “unorthodox” is…
{Source} Mental health awareness is something I have been passionate about for almost 4 years. It started when I saw close friends suffer from depression and anxiety, and I felt helpless since I did not know how to rightfully approach their situation. It’s so easy to feel like your words of comfort and support are…
My school is at Montreal for the SSUNS Model UN competition. On Wednesday, we had about a 7 hour long tour of the city of Montreal. I am completely in love with the city.
