Do you have time to
yourself?
By Kashleigh Redd
Does your life give
you enough time to relax?
Imagine your life with more
resting and less working.
Imagine more resting and
more breaks from school.
Would that change in your
life affect you in any way?
Comments on this topic indicate that some people have
an affirmative reaction to that
change and some people have
worries and/or stress about
the change.
Sometimes you have too
much work to even think
about relaxing. As long as
you get what you needed
to do during each day, you
should have time to relax.
Sometimes you stress and
worry about the things that
you did not do that is needs
to be done.
How do you balance all
the things you need to do in
an average day with the need
to sleep and rest? Well Troy
Ross said “My life gives me
enough time to relax. I have
baseball all the time, and
homework. But if you get
your priorities straight then
everything will work out.”
Troy has a point, if you
finish what you have to do
and work hard, it will pay off
in the end with relaxation.
Andrianna Bean, junior, said
“I think that it’s just the way
you handle your schedule.”
I have AP classes and
ALOT of homework. I just
find ways to relax while
working. How does that
work? Well easy, I LOVE
music, so while I work, I start
to listen to music. That seems
to work for me. I enjoy the
music, work, and end with a
very positive mood. You have
chances to enjoy life, you just
got to find the right moment.
If you can’t find it, then it’s
because you got too much
things going on and just got
to slow down or find a way to
escape like me.
Research shows that naps
in the middle of the day have
helped people improve in
their mood. When you are
cranky and do not want to
talk to anybody just because
you are sleepy, that shows
you are in a bad mood. More
sleep at night can help improve tour performance the
next day.
We have to be responsible sometimes, but is being
sleep deprived your fault?
What things can you change
in schedule to get more sleep
or more time to relax? Kyra
Love said “I think us students
should have enough time
to sleep in the mornings! It
makes you feel energized
and ready to learn! When us
students get 5 to 6 hours of
sleep that’s not enough we
need 8 to 10 hours to sleep,
and the teacher’s wonder why
us students don’t get enough
sleep or if we fall asleep in
class! Some teacher’s need
to lay off and let us sleep if
we pay attention and listen!
When us students don’t get
enough sleep they are not energized and they don’t want
to do anything!
Everybody has their own
opinion in getting enough
relaxation time. You do not
want to stress yourself when
you are young. As long as
your priorities are straight,
you should be straight. The
work you have accomplished
will not stress you out and
will eventually leave you
time to relax.
Continuation to relaxation:
Here are some tips on how to
relax yourself when you are
stressed and/or tired.
1. Sip Green Tea.
2. Slurp Some Honey.
3. Bite Into a Mango.
4. Chew Gum.
5. Munch on a Crunchy
Snack (such as chips, popcorn, apples, etc.).
6. Meditate.
7. Lay Your Head on a Cushion or Pillow.
8. Count Backwards (start at
10 or 20).
9. Give Yourself a Hand
Massage.
10. Give Yourself a Hand
Massage (or any small spherical object).

God of War III is an action
adventure third person video
game developed by Santa
Monica Studios and published by Sony Computer Entertainment and was released
on March 16, 2010 for the
PlayStation 3.
There is no video game or
series that I admire more
that God of War III because
of many reasons. The game
is loosely based on greek
mythology and set in Ancient Greece. God of War III
follows the main protagonist,
Kratos who, after he was
betrayed by Zeus, ascends
Mount Olympus to kill
the Gods of Olympus. The
gameplay of God of War III
is that of an hack-and-slash
game with Kratos wielding
dual short blades to defeat
enemies. The story picks up
form God of War II, with
Kratos taking on the God
of Olympus with the Titans.
God of War III is the dramatic conclusion to the God of
War series and to the end of a
console exclusive. In the end,
God of War III is a hack-andslash video game that proves
itself to be a pinnacle in the
world of video games.
When it comes down to it, everyone has different tastes on
everything, and that applies
to video games. For people
who play video games, there
is always a kind of game for
everyone to enjoy, from fun
and simple games to more
challenging and thought-provoking games. The point is,
if you love video games, just
stick to what you love.

Social(ly inept)
Media
BY AARON COLE
How one story of a man
losing it all gains more
knowledge from the dangers
of social media.
Social media has had a
heavy influence for the last
decade or as the internet has
evolved into the mega giant
platform: from Facebook,
Instagram, Kik, Snapchat,
and many other social media
giants and rising stars. It’s
almost reaching scary levels
of integration because most
don’t seem to understand
how to moderate the use of
it or worse put heavily personal things on there that
most would like to keep
private. In recent news, the
NFL Draft has been a major
part of drama recently due to
the involvement of one draft
prospect, Laremy Turnsil.
Laremy is a college football
player who has made major strides in his tenure and
impressed a lot of scouts with
it along with his stats during
his Pro day and combine
workout. According to a lot of
prospects, they predicted the
man to be a top 5 draft pick.
So what exactly happened
to him that day? Literally 10
minutes before the start of the
draft, on his twitter account a
video of him uploaded on it
showing him smoking using a
gas mask with a bong attached to the end. He immediately deleted his account
then soon reinstated it claiming there was a hacker on his
Social media accounts. And
soon after that another post
was soon uploaded to his Instagram account showing text
messages between him and
his coach showing him asking
for money to pay off bills his
mother was having. The situation had gotten so bad that
some beat writers wrote that
most teams took his name of
the board after the first and
second video became known
to the team. He eventually
did get drafted by the Miami
Dolphins who picked him up
at spot #13.
The massive drop in the
draft has decreased his value
so bad that he lost 10 million
dollars because of those two
posts. 10 million dollars this
man lost because some hacker posted those two incriminating things on his social
media accounts. These are the
consequences and dangers of
having social media accounts
or the very least not using
moderation to the fullest extent on them. Because events
like this, although the Laremy
Turnsil one has been marked
as a league of its own, there
are still other stories of equally negative stories of how this
has affected people.
The unhealthy use has
gotten bad that now companies are affectively looking
through employees (or those
who try to apply work at
said company) social media
accounts to find criminating
things posted on their Social
Media accounts. Examples
from the likes of use of drugs
like marijuana, Lean, etc.
Withholding things like firearms or just negative problematic things on there to use
against them. . Even if you’re
not worried about companies,
you still can deal with Law
enforcement using that data
and information against you.
What’s worse is that most
companies already like Google, Facebook, etc. use that
info for private matters such
as that or in order to sell you
products thanks to the free
info you’re giving them and
they won’t hesitate to turn
over this info if they want to.
Overall, it’s important to
realize that the use of Social
Media is completely fine as
it allows others to stay connected to family and friends
and be apparent of something
far bigger than the normality that others are used to in
their areas. But as it’s been
said, the negative use of it or
non-teachings about keeping
private matters to yourself
and being aware that the use
of things should not be a focal
point of said lives.

Sanders, Clinton, or Trump?
By Kashleigh Redd
Who do you want our
next president to be? It is very
important to know who is
running our country. As our
generation now, we need to
know how important it is to
vote. Everybody sure does not
want Trump to be our next
president. Why can’t Barack
Obama be president forever?
He has been a great president.
It is very important to vote
because we do not want presidents like Donald Trump.
Imagine it being your fault
because Trump won presidency by one more vote than
the other presidents. Presidential race includes Donald
Trump, Bernie Sanders, and
Hillary Clinton. Who do you
want our president to be?
Students around the school
had chosen who they wanted
to be our next president to be.
Bernie Sanders: 27 students
would vote for him
Hillary Clinton: 11 Students
would vote for her
Donald Trump: 2 students
would vote for him
Student Commentary:
Ashley Morgan said “If we
could vote Donald Trump off
of the presidency election I
would so vote for that.”
Students who would vote
for Trump would rather be
anonymous. I would want to
be anonymous too if I were
them.
Adrianna Bean, said, “If
any person would be stupid
enough to vote for Trump
might as well just suffer from
him being president anyway
because Trump is going to be
horrible at this.”

Set 1: 6-7
Set 2: 3-6
By: Kashleigh Redd
I, myself, Kashleigh Redd,
am a part of the softball team
and I have to say we did pretty well as long as we stuck
together and worked hard.
The softball team had a rough
start due to the weather. This
weather is so bipolar they
had to cancel the first few
games in the beginning of
the season. Once the softball
team had played some games,
it was a little stressful. The
teammates stuck together and
helped fix the mistakes we
made during the game.
As a team I have seen
some progress in our throwing, catching, and bating. Although “somebody” got hit in
the head twice with a softball,
but that is irrelevant. Coach
Battle and Coach Jackson,
varsity’s coaches, are good,
even though sometimes they
had their bad days. Coach
Becker and Coach McGriggs
are the Junior varsity (JV)
coaches.
The softball team is
fighting their way through the
season to win some games.
Sometimes it is not all about
winning it is about having
fun. “…as long as you all
play like winners because it
is not all about winning” Is
what coach Jackson tells the
girls on the softball team.
Throughout the season we
had a great time, we worked
hard, and tried our best. I am
proud of our team.
Allen Price wins the
match against the
