By ISabella F. Whether it is a school play, concert for an arts class, or a dance recital, performing for an audience can be both exciting and nerve-wracking. Here at Airport High School there are many opportunities to step on stage with our art department. This means that stress for performers can build before, during, and after a performance. Without being managed, stress can cause physical and mental harm such as shaky hands, self-doubt, and, eventually, burnout. Learning

By Natalee O. One popular subgenre of TikTok accounts right now is running content.  Several TikTok accounts focused on running are currently trending, especially those sharing running tips, motivational content, race highlights, and creative workout challenges. Accounts like @the_runners_corner , @runningwithcody , and @marathonmom  have gained popularity recently for their engaging content, fitness advice, and personal running journeys. Running-related hashtags like #Runnin

A 2023 Pew Research Center survey found that 53% of U.S. adults report having between one and four close friends, 38% say they have five or more, and 8% admit to having none at all. If these numbers hold true for students at AHS, this makes me think that students have far fewer friends than we realize--and of those friends, how many are genuine versus fake? Being in a fake friend’s territory can be scary. But after having an experience with a fake friend once before, I’ll be

By Emily H. Making slime is a popular craft for kids. It is easy to find the ingredients around your house and cheap to make if you have to go to the store and buy them. Making slime is also a fast simple process that keeps kids entertained for hours. I’ve made slime many times myself and  with kids, so I know what works best. This recipe is one I’ve used over and over and it is very simple and always turns out great. Unlike a lot of slime recipes out there, this one uses onl

By Marvin P. and Kam B. Many people could say, “Hair could tell a story,” and personally, I agree. Some might even argue that dreads hold the most memories. Dreads, or locs, are a personal statement and, for many of us, a cultural connection. As a high school senior who’s been through the awkward phases, the “Give up” or “They’re so ugly” comments, and the moments of wanting to quit, I get it. But trust us—they can change a person, and if you want to change, tap into our arti

By Bryan W. What is a strategy game?: Strategy is a genre of games where players use decision-making, planning, and tactics. Unlike other games which might rely on luck such as Candy Land, strategy games are entirely about skill and using your brain. Find a strategy game: Strategy games aren’t for everyone. Don’t feel like you have to jump right to chess just because it’s popular, feel free to start with simpler games like Exploding Kittens or Connect 4. Learn the basics: Whi

By Jahmarcus W. Hiya folks! You know giving criticism? That thing where you actually give a work a fair shake, with an open mind and respect for what the creator was trying to do? Yeah… that’s totally  rampant in the community. People have definitely been giving everything the respect it deserves, never dismissing animations as “just for kids” and therefore Oscar-ineligible, or knocking a game’s score because the reviewer couldn’t get past the tutorial level, or writing somet

By: Alma Mendez A lot of girls don’t have an older sister who could teach them or their moms never thought their daughters needed makeup because every girl is beautiful in their own way. In my case, I never wanted to learn to do my make up but as I got older I wish I could have learned so then I could teach my little sister when she's at the age appropriate to start wearing it.  While it’s easy to watch a Youtube video, it could be hard for your makeup to come out exactly lik

By Jailyn R. For years now, I've seen people tracing art, using AI, or stealing art and claiming it as their own, when people can create their own masterpieces simply by practicing their skills and growing their experiences as an artist. Becoming better at art can significantly benefit students in general by fostering creativity, reducing stress, and improving cognitive functions. I know how hard it can be to do art because I have been doing art for most of my life, and it ha

By Harper M. Although deer hunting season is complicated and differs based on the type of weapon one uses and where in the state the hunting is taking place, for licensed adults, the season began on October 11. But deer season isn’t all about killing. The work doesn’t stop after the deer is harvested; there’s the cleaning and processing that still need to happen. For a hunter, the moment after a successful harvest is often a race against the clock. The difference between spoi

By Madilyn B. and Maleah H. Makeup has been a way for women to express themselves for many years, there are many different products and routines that anyone can follow. Makeup has been trending for many years and has been one of the things that are constantly evolving, along with makeup evolving so do the people who discover makeup and have a desire to learn about makeup.

By Maleah H. According to a 2018 study by the American Veterinary Medical Association, about 326,000 U.S. households own at least one ferret. However, my anecdotal experience leads me to consider them one of the lesser-known pets—ones that many people may be curious to learn more about. Are you thinking about getting a ferret, or do you already have one but aren’t sure how to take care of it? Whether you're a first-time owner or already have some experience, this guide can he

By Jamarion L. & Morgan M. Since GTA is about to release next year, it is very fresh on everybody's mind. This is why we are writing to help you get money within this game. We have been playing GTA since GTA III, and in the current GTA, we have a combined 83 million.
