The Election

Hello boys and girls, I'm back and it's the final post of the year. Focusing on one of the final events of the year, the election. The candidates are: William Yu and Cydney Chan, Rebecca Nguyen and Damon Lundy, Kenar Bannister and Ayotunde Summers, Daniel Padulo and Andrew Burgers, and finally yours truly, Oscar Orellana and Joanne Yu. A lot of choices, I know. I could tell you who not to vote for, but I'm not gonna! I haven't heard any plans  of change for the school from any of them. But they all promise the  same thing, change....

Its basically about a death metal band called Dethkolk, they're a band in real life also. An animated band on Adult Swim, that is the worlds best band and they are rich as all hell. They all rock and are totally brutal, but they're not the smartest. It is rated TV MA, because ...

Award Shows

There’s a variety of Award Shows that come on every year for movies and music. My personal favorites are the VMA’s and the Billboard awards. A lot of us have been watching award shows since we were little because of Nickelodeon’s Kids Choice Awards. I think award shows are very entertaining because all the famous actors and actresses attend and there are always interesting little skits and performances that are on. Usually these award shows choose funny, comical people to host. Sometimes if you’re lucky there will be some dramatic incident like...

Tomb Raider

The game starts off with as a scene in which the destruction of their ship - the Endurance - occurs, landing them on an island...

April fool’s Day- DIY

Who doesn’t like a good joke? I recently learned how to make fake blood, so now I can have all kinds of fun! Since it’s made out of edible ingredients, you can eat it too. But be careful because it can stain clothing (if you add detergent it won’t stain, but you can’t eat it). With April fool’s day coming up, this could help you with the great practical joke you had trouble thinking of! What you need: Chocolate Syrup, Corn Syrup, Red Food Coloring,...

The Knife Game Song

The Knife Game Song Hello ladies and gentlemen, I'm still here, kicking with a new blog post. This one is about a fad that's been out for a while, the knife game song. The rules are simple, put your hand out on the table stretched, get a knife, and stab the spaces between you fingers while staying with the beat of the song. Also, don't miss the spaces, because your fingers may come off, and if they do they'll start to bleed. And I can imagine that's no fun. But, the game is. Now, usually people go and say, "that's stupid" or "dangerous", or...

Hi everyone, I was able to watch a few movies over the four day weekend (some from the movie theater, some from Netflix), so now I'll be able to review them for you guys! :'D The first on my list of movies is Rubber, "a 2010 French comedy film about a tire that comes to life and kills people with its psychic powers" (summary taken from Wikipedia).

Video Games Updates

SimCity 5 was released a few days ago and already it’s a failure. After all the hype SimCity fans have built up after so many years, the game ends up being unplayable at the moment because of EA’s decision to make it so that the game can only be played when players are online. Their servers weren’t able to handle the number of players online playing the game and so the game crashes and causes loss of save data. Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag has also been announced to be released on October 29 on the PS3 and Xbox360. The game will also be available...

Ouidad-Hydrafusion Intense Curl Cream

I received a sample of this in my Birchbox awhile ago. It was really cool, something that could enhance my already semi-curly hair and define the curls so they would look better. I've also noticed that it makes my hair softer and there is no "crunch" to it like some gels do. One of the main ingredients is water, which means its very hydrating, yay! No frizz! I don't know if it works for people who have naturally straight hair, but I do know that...

The Amazing Spider Man Movie Review

This weekend my parents and me were bored and decided to watch the new Spiderman Movie “The Amazing Spiderman”. When I was a kid my Dad took to see every one of the Spiderman movies in the theatre but I never watched the newest version of the classic movie. I thought that the new version was pretty good and is a decent take on the original version. I enjoyed watching the movie it was very action-filled and there was nothing boring about it. Certain...

Fun in the Snow

Remember the good old days before we had all of our prized electronics such as laptops, cell phones, iPads? Back when we actually went outside to play for fun.

Justin Bieber on Saturday Night Live

On February 9th, 2013, pop singer Justin Bieber was a guest on Saturday Night Live and was the host and performer.  Bieber appeared in many different skits that were in my opinion hilarious.  He starred as a Californian runaway on the segment called "The Californians".  He also played a southern boy who visits his girlfriend's family in which his girlfriend has a very obnoxious brother who teases him because he messed up on a greeting.  The skits were all very entertaining and introduced a new side of Justin Bieber.I thought...

POKEMON X AND Y

They went and made another damn region, with a new game and new pokemon. And you know, people thought the Unova region was bad, this... this is just disappointing.  These starters just look ridiculous. A frog, some chihuahua, and a chipmunk looking thing....

End of the season beginning of the Playoffs

The regular season for the girls basketball team is coming to an end and the playoff season is just around the corner. As most of you guys may know we've been in the playoffs every year and we are going to continue that tradition. Although we fell short against Norman Thomas, the game that would determine our seating in the playoffs, we knew that we have to practice so much harder for the playoffs. Our game on Friday was cancelled against Hunter. It was disappointing news since all of the players were ready and determined to get this win...

Crunch Time

As the final weeks of regular season basketball began, the Boys’ basketball team had one thing in mind: getting to the playoffs. As hard as it sounded, we knew we had the potential and determination to win, and to be recognized as a team that could win. Our first game of the week was against East Side Community. Back in our first meeting, the Blue Devils fell short, losing by 6 in the final, crucial moments of the game. But with a new mind set, we easily set off to a big lead, and never gave up the lead, easily striding over East Side Community,...

Physical Education

Greetings students of Baruch, I come to you with a post of some what attention. We all now the deal with gym, first half is the physical unit. Mainly for exercise and preparing for the fitness test. But then we're cut off and forced into some dance unit. And why? Because we have to just because it has been shoved into our curriculum. Well, I don't like it. This class once meant something, an opportunity to exercise. Another opportunity actually, I do exercise on my own. But that doesn't  make anything better. And...

Garnier Fructis- Leave-In Conditioner

This was one of my first products from Garnier Fructis, and I’m really happy with it because I feel like it does do what it claims. There has been a lot of discussion on which is better, leave in or rinse out conditioner.  It depends on the hair type; leave in conditioner is better suited for people who have dry hair, because when you use the rinse out conditioner you’re rinsing out the moisture. I think this is one of the best leave in conditioners...
