Don't relate the afrocentric school in Toronto to...
Kids of all races are allowed in and it’s up to the parents whether they want their children to go there or not, therefore it’s not segregation, at least not like how it was historically. Now, whether the black-focused school in Toronto was the greatest way to handle the “40% of black kids drop out” situation or not is an entirely different story. If the kids enjoy it and...

…because I haven’t started studying for French (exam on Monday) or geography (exam on Tuesday). I’ve been too busy studying the parts of the science textbook my teacher oh-so-graciously didn’t bother teaching. Normally I wouldn’t go out of my way to learn more by reading a textbook, but the fact that every other science class got a review page with stuff on it that my...

6 things I hate about what you're wearing
I’ve been pretty disgusted at what I’ve seen people wear lately, so I figure I’ll let you know what I’m thinking. It’s a personal blog, without a comments section, which means I can talk and you can’t publicly disagree with me. Win-win! 1. American Eagle Knockoff Uggs/Emus - Uggs are uggly.

11 things we learned watching Cloverfield
(via onlymagazine.ca) 1. All big, city destroying, human eating monsters kind of look the same. Gone are the goofy days of Godzilla or the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man (not to mention that if the Ghostbusters had been around this kind of shit would have never happened), now they all just look like the monster from The Faculty/Starship Troopers/Mimic/The Host/Men in Black. 5.

Corey Delaney ARRESTED!
Remember Corey Delaney? Well, no one’s allowed to use his name in articles any more because he’s been arrested for public nuisance and producing child porn (read: drunken sixteen-year-old girls). Too bad everyone knows his name already. A lot happens overnight, especially when in Australia, it’s already tomorrow. Many of the news articles available yesterday have been deleted...

Meet Corey Delaney from Melbourne, Australia. This past Saturday he decided to take advantage of his parents being away, and threw a party. He promoted it to his friends through MySpace, Facebook and text messages. In the end, almost 500 teenagers showed up for his party (most drunk out of their minds), causing $20,000 in damage. But would he do it again? “I would do it this weekend if my...

Juno completely ignored by the 2008 Golden Globes
This year’s Golden Globes… erm, press conference was incredibly boring. Due to the Writer’s Strike, it consisted of 60 minutes of four hosts making comments about winners and oh-so-fascinatingly guessing who would win upcoming awards. Of that hour, approximately 20 minutes were commercials, many of which were network ads promoting TV shows and other events on NBC. So many...

Apparently April Pearson, 18, who plays Michelle and Mike Bailey, 19, who plays Sid, will not have their contracts renewed. Producers are hoping to persuade...
