I ran barefoot at a cross country meet
November 7, 2021 — by Lynn Dai
Among all the possible injuries for ultra-dangerous sports — football, baseball, horseback-riding and gymnastics, to name a few — what’s the worst that can happen in a relatively safer sport like cross country? Losing your shoe. No, I’m not kidding. It happened to me at the 2.23-mile meet at Lynbrook on Oct. 28 after my […]

This Thanksgiving, try something new: Prepare a whole turkey
November 4, 2021 — by Lynn Dai
Picture this: You’re rushing through the grocery store when something catches your eye — a fridge of full-sized turkeys, selling at just 29 cents a pound, or $5 each.

Top 10 places to cry
November 4, 2021 — by Andrew Lin
10) The vegetable aisle at the supermarket. Bonus points if you include onions in your routine.   9) At home, listening to music. Those slowed + reverb remixes hit especially hard.   8) Inside a bathroom stall. No one is going to notice more fluid traveling in a downward direction here.   7) In bed, […]

‘Starcraft’: the hardest game ever
November 4, 2021 — by Aiden Ye
I started playing “Starcraft” in hopes of gaining some extra brain cells and perhaps even more agile hands. I soon realized that the only organ that got bigger through playing “Starcraft” was my heart, through increased blood pressure.

My ‘losing things’ streak
November 2, 2021 — by Victoria Hu
If someone were to take a tour of my work space at home, they would see my binders and books scattered haphazardly on the table, with a thin coating of scratch paper layered across the room like a sheet of new snow. The sign on the door leading to this messy habitat is labeled “Do […]

Why can’t I make decisions?
November 2, 2021 — by Nikhil Mathihalli
It’s time to eat dinner. I open Netflix on my computer (because the TV is somehow always occupied) and ask the question I fear the most: What should I watch today? I watch only about 30 minutes of TV per week — but not because I’m responsible or because I dislike watching TV (I’ve binge […]

Pitbull concert really was the time of my life
November 1, 2021 — by Meher Bhatnagar
Lights flashed, Pitbull’s voice blared through the microphone, people were jumping up and down and I couldn’t hear anyone next to me. Onstage, cannons blasted white gas into the air and confetti fell over the crowd. The concert was everything I had hoped it would be. Though I had never been to a concert before, […]

November 1, 2021 — by Sam Bai
“BRINGGG BRINGGG!”  At 7:30 a.m., the alarm on my phone goes off, startling me from my slumber. Half asleep, I pry open my eyes and pick up my phone, squinting at the snooze button. I press the big orange button and pull my warm blanket over my head. Just a few more minutes, I think […]
