I remember the sensation of the needlebeds, making gunk, and watching movies in the huge theater. What I just described was the ‘old’ science center- in my opinion, the…
{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…

At the beginning of the summer, I went to a debate camp where we talked a lot about some of the most common logical inconsistencies in debate. The one that stuck with me the most was this one called the “Gambler’s Fallacy“. This logical error is based on the idea that as long as you…
For some, drawing with their eyes open can already be challenging enough. When you factor in a blindfold, the level of artistic ability drops drastically. Granted, many amazing artists are able to craft masterpieces without their sense of sight. Rebecca and I do not happen to be that type of person. Our drawings are disjointed…
When you picture your favourite animal, the image that pops into your head is likely that of a dog, a cat, a dolphin, or a similar cute animal.

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,…

Large, Powdered Wigs In 17th century Europe kings, nobility and aristocrats could be recognized by their large, powdered wigs. This trend began when King Louis XII was mocked for being prematurely bald. To conceal his head, he used a sizeable curly wig to demonstrate his status. It soon became a fad all over Europe, as it displayed…
YouTube is one of my favourite websites to date. You can find so many cool things there. You can learn how to Tibetan throat sing, fake an Irish accent or how to do your hair as if you were in the 1920s. You can also find a lot of cool people! They could be beauty…

Have you ever sat back and just thought about where your life is going? Not the typical, “Ahhhh what am I gonna do with my life and myself and my everything??? AHH. High school is almost over.. ahhhh,” type thoughts, not those. More so the thoughts along the lines of, “Where is the human race…
