Drama? Save It for the Playwrights.

No More Drama, Please. by Lushbunny
Life as a teenager attending high school and seeing the same people day after day can be quite a trial. One simple way to help you survive friend drama and common frustration is to find a stress releasing activity that suits you best. Mine is writing, so every time I get frustrated I stop and take a second to write before responding to the issue at hand. Some may find relaxation through music, so they plug in their headphones and block out the problem entirely. On the other hand, a good nights rest can help stop one from making rash decisions out of anger. All in all, my suggestion is to take some time to digest the situation and calm yourself with relaxing activities before the drama consumes you and you might just make it out alive.




The Big Freeze!




Back Breaking Snowball by Ryan Grimm 

Everybody wants to leave their own mark on the world. Don't you? I know I do and I'm willing to bet there are plenty more out there like me (at least in a different kind of way). So, what will you leave behind? If you have a perfect plan and instructions to follow through, then good for you, but if you're one who doesn't, then join the club. I don't know what kind of impression I want to leave behind, but I know I need to start on the little things in order to leave a bigger one. Just like a snowball, I will have to keep adding snow in order to make it last. This process may take some time, but I know it will be worth it in the end. For those out there with me, don’t give up, just keep adding some snow to make a snowball that can withstand the test of time.
