It is no secret that sequels often times are a let down and sometimes sully the name of a franchise. Sequels often seem like a cash-grab from big production companies that want to get money from the success of a movie that’s already been made. It’s not something that is viewed as having much artistic integrity.
Arguably the only sequel with equal critical acclaim to the original is the Godfather part II, and e...
What would you do for a Klondike bar or any ice cream for that matter?
Ice cream was a staple in all of our childhoods and it’s a treat that we still look forward to on hot, summer days....
Writing utensils: they unite us, stimulate lively discussion among us, and even cause tensions between us. Every student has his or her preferences. After 3.5 long years of high school, I too hav...
In late December, a report surfaced that the Trump administration banned the CDC from using a list of seven words, including “science-based”, “diversity”, and “transgender”. It was soon discovered that the Trump administration had nothing to do with the banned words and that this ban was self-imposed by officials in the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
According to sources, officials didn’t...
You might have heard that when a car leaves the lot it will lose almost 20% of its value immediately. Well, luckily that applies to almost everything. Buying used items can be a great way to save money.
Other websites like Ebay can have great deals and thousands of results, but there’s not too much quality control and you never get to see the product in person, so you could get scammed.
Websites like Craigslist have all...
Everyone, at one time or another, has gotten into trouble. Whether with parents, a teacher or even a friend, it's just human nature to break the rules every once in awhile.

Hi, I’m Reed.

Every year, new viral dances sweep the nation for a couple of months. Most fizzle
out but some are immortalized forever. When adults think of dances they may
think of the electric slide or the twist. Here, I highlight some of the best
dances of the younger generation’s childhood, and some that are generally new to
most people. These are all subjective of course, but not many people can argue
that all of these...
We have three dances, all a great amount of fun, but if it were narrowed down to just only have one dance, which would you choose.
Starting in the first quarter we have the Sadie Hawkins dance. Some may say Sadie Hawkins is the most fun. Sadie Hawkins is a laid back dance. No need for the boys to go out and be forced to find a tuxedo, bowtie, and cummerbund.
“It is my favorite because I can just go in my closet and wear...
Sleep-deprived, caffeine-dependent balls of stress. We snooze in class, doze off during homework, and sleep in past noon on weekends.
These are the words that describe the stereotypical modern teenager. With sleep deprivation becoming more prevalent among teens thanks to early school start times, this stereotype is only becoming more accurate.
I feel the effects of Broughton’s 7:25 a.m. start time every day. Over time...
Ho Ho Ho! It’s the most wonderful time of the year again. With the Christmas season back in town it is time to talk about my personal favorite topic, Christmas gifts. While these gifts differ from grade to grade, person to person, something almost everyone can agree on is that there is nothing better than coming downstairs to see that Santa Claus has taken a bite of your cookies, drinken your milk, and left you a few presen...
With Queen of Hearts quickly approaching, the typical Broughton student’s Instagram feed is filled with creative posters, food items, and other creative ways guys have asked girls to QOH.
