It’s a popular belief that art is the best method of expression. With the arising contemporary approaches to art, especially visual art, many artists have created works that are uniquely quirky and relatable. It seems as if the goal of many modern artists is to evoke existential ideas through minimalistic pieces. After [accidentally] exploring Instagram for a couple…
As much as I hate turning everything into an argument for why my gender is oppressed, the reality of women’s clothing is that it’s often tight and specifically cut- which means that 95% of body types end up simply looking awkward. And while there is great diversity in women’s garment styles that makes this deficiency…
{Source} Don’t you hate dilemmas and making tough decisions? The other day, I went to my favourite clothing store. My wardrobe was already full, but I don’t care. I saw a superhero shirt. Great news! It has been marked down from $19.99 to $13.99. Then I see another shirt. The fabric is smoother and feels…
This past week, that perfect combination of luck and spare cash emerged to allow me to travel to Italy and Greece with a touring group. My expectations were pretty much on par with every girl’s fallacy that life in these places is essentially a B-list chick flick, and were exceeded. Now I’m not saying that my…
Although it would have been a career-topping interview for me, someone else sat down with scientist and professor Guy Claxton to tackle the subject of erasers and their role in the lives of students. I know what you’re thinking: “What new insight into the rubber industry could anyone possibly have at this point? It’s 2015.” Certainly,…
I never really knew what to expect from Grade 10 until I experienced it. But, looking back at the memories made in 9 months, I’m surprised about where I ended up versus in where I started. I was a nervous 14-year-old intimidated by my peers and the unknown classrooms. Now, I see students I pass in the hallway as…

For my fellow Albertans, we know that occasionally (well often) the political system can be frustrating. Recently, one of Alberta’s premiers was asked about the financial crisis many Albertans understand the reality of only too well. A comment about ‘looking in the mirror’ set not only Albertans on edge but trended Canada-wide on twitter (#PrenticeblamesAlbertans).…
Oh glasses, we can’t live with them, and we can’t live without them. They make life go from 480p to HD in a matter of seconds. Who doesn’t like that? No one, absolutely no one, but with great advantage, there has to be some disadvantages. Here are a couple of those pesky things that come with wearing glasses.…
We all love fairy tales and their amazing happy endings, especially the Disney ones! The songs are so joyful and they don’t seem to have a care in the world. Or so we think! The endings of fairytales have been twisted by Disney, so that the movies would be a huge hit with the viewers…
I grew up watching cartoons on Cartoon Network, and I loved most of the cartoons that came on. However, there are just some cartoons that I absolutely despised, and I have listed three of the worst cartoons (in my opinion of course) here: 1. Dexter’s Laboratory Dexter’s laboratory was quite a thrilling experience for me.…
I used to be a HUGE fan of pop music until the summer of 2014. Once I was introduced to other genres like rock alternative and punk rock, I began to notice how annoying some of the pop songs were! Here are a few of those songs: 1. We are never ever getting back together…
Sometimes you hear about cool places by word of mouth and sometimes you find them by chance on your way to school or work. Whichever way you find them, there’s nothing like that feeling when you say to yourself “this exists… and I’m learning about this just now?!” This McDonalds is one of them. OK…
Hey guys, one of the things I adore most in life are ironic moments. These moments make you take a quick break out of life and just make you chuckle. Hope you enjoy some of these ironic photos. …
1. Alarms Anyone can complain about how much they hate the sound of their alarm clock in the morning. The worst is when you decide to put your favourite song as your alarm so that you can “wake up with a smile on your face.” Quite the opposite can happen, where you can never ever…
