May 23, 2019
I have to say, it really gets under my skin when people interrupt me in the middle of my sentence. I’m not talking about small commentary here and there to show interest in the topic - I’m talking about when someone is in the middle of a story and the other person blatantly cuts them off to tell...

Today is the Day: I Go to Prom
April 30, 2019
Prom is, in many ways, the biggest event of junior year. While I’m no longer a junior, I hear whispers about it in the hallway, the dreaded word coming up over and over: promposal. I hear it while I’m working in the art room or during orchestra. I scroll through my Facebook page to find that it...
Opinion: College Board – a very profitable not-for-profit
