I remember that as a kid I went to a field trip to the “Dean House,” a place that is supposedly haunted by ghosts. When I was there though I felt nothing; no drop in temperature, no sudden movements, and definately no sense of anything paranormal. What I believe is the fact that most of…
So recently, cute quotes have been showing up on my Facebook about stuff that gives people hope. I decided to go check the links out. It was probably the most pleasant surprise I’ve had in a while. It was just so awwww. This is what it did to me: (Haha, no. I don’t have blond hair.…

What’s happening is truly remarkable – a mirage of a city is being seen across the Xin’an river from the city of Huanshan, in China.

The old-aged excuse of “I’m peeing on the bushes to help water them” is one step closer to becoming legitimized. Recently, Eddie Gandlemam released a new conceptual design for men’s urinals titled “When Nature Calls”. Rather than the conventional white porcelain urinal, Gandleman designed a sort of filtration system, equipped with four urinals. The idea essentially is that, when…
As we finish off yet another exciting year of school, we begin to realize just how fast we are all growing up. For me, it is the end of Grade 11 in high school. And soon, I will be embarking on another busy year, my final year of high school. The idea of growing up…

Letting pre-exam stress get to you? Maybe you’re stuck in a job you can’t stand when you’d rather be out enjoying the sunshine. Perhaps you’re missing the cold, snowy, winter days (*cough*, that was a joke). Or maybe you’re like me and are starting out the summer season with the flu. On one hand, you can probably relate to…
Recently I was browsing through YouTube, watching a few big name video bloggers when I came across vsauce. I’ve watched their videos before, but this certain video featured under most viewed for that day utilised the playlist function on YouTube. It literally allows you to lean-back and watch video after video set in order for…
So it’s that time of year again….Grade 12 Graduation! Words like: ‘diplomas’ and ‘prom’ are just some of the things on the minds of Grade 12 students across the city. Ok, I can’t really speak from experience as I won’t be graduating for another couple of years. My concert band however, has the honour of playing for…
In this video the Coca Cola seems to freeze spontaneously after the man opens the bottle. Apparently it’s a special type of Coca Cola that you can only get in certain parts of the world. [youtube j07SweYJTSM] The Coke is “supercooled” (when a liquid is brought below its freezing point without crystallizing). When a liquid…
Yes, that’s right, it’s possible that our NASA scientists have discovered a ninth planet in our solar system. It has been named “Tyche” pronounced tay-kee. 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…
Have you ever wondered what you would taste like to a cannibal? Now is your chance! No, I am not advertising a band of test-tasting cannibals that shall advise you on your flavour (as…um…fascinating(?) as that would be… :O). However, it is an interesting question. There is not any (if there is a minor amount,…
Everyone knows that the weather around here is absolutely crazy (would you believe it’s spring right now)!? It’s especially noticeable how weather is a mutual thing that binds all former and present day Calgarians together. However, it seems that this year particularly, the weather hasn’t been able to make up its mind and I think…
[youtube EK6kJVzt5g0] This week’s motivational song of the week is Demolition by Crow’s Claw. This song, in my opinion, is motivational because of the metal-esque guitar and just the atmosphere it creates in the listener. It makes you wanna get up in the morning and say “Hello world! I’m going to take you on today…
