BTS’s recent comeback
album cover After being gone for a long four years, BTS returned from their hiatus this March. Their comeback featured many interviews as well as a comeback tour and album. Being one of―if not the world’s biggest K-Pop group, BTS’s fans (also known as Army) had high expectations for this album. But is it really that good? After listening to the entire album, I have some thoughts about it. DISCLAIMER: ALL THE RATING AND REVIEWS FOR THIS ALBUM IS STRICTLY MY OPINION ONLY. I WO

Vanishing wildlife
Art by Emaline Varava Animal Extinction: A Growing Global Problem Animals have been going extinct for millions of years due to natural changes on Earth. Today, however, extinction is happening much faster than normal because of human actions. Deforestation, pollution, climate change, overhunting, and illegal wildlife trade are destroying habitats and reducing animal populations around the world. When animals go extinct, ecosystems become unbalanced, which can affect entire ec

HL's Kitchen: part one
Art by Jarisse Nabung Eagle Rock High School has long been a peaceful place. When you enter campus, it is as if you are stepping into a mystical garden of whimsy and joy. But do not be fooled by the school’s tranquil exterior, as the forbidden garden is riddled with snakes: feuding teachers. As of last semester, twelfth grade teachers—specifically those associated with the IB—were required to create a schedule for their student’s IAs. However, their interests clashed… schedul

Fall on campus: an ERHS photo essay
This fall, I found everything in this school so beautiful, the green in the trees, the grass, the cold air, and especially the views farther out of view. Reflecting on those moments, it would be nice for the soft morning air to circulate back into this season, but I find it better to enjoy the place that I’m in now. Not because I will eventually be back to the cold fall air, but because I can learn to grow through these seasons. When you’re not in your best state, or going th

Conformity Gate: When theory-making goes too far
Art by Ondine Mitchell **SPOILERS FOR THE FINALE OF STRANGER THINGS** Ever wonder why so many Stranger Things fans basically became conspiracy theorists after the season one finale? Well, since the uproar for the series’ end has pretty much died out by now (much to Netflix’s dismay, after a lot of promotion), the epidemic of people analyzing cryptic clues hidden in episode "The Rightside Up” has been somewhat forgotten. However, instead of focusing on the lackluster finale a


The best places to eat afterschool!
Art by Afreen Majumdar Any student at ERHS knows right after school, kids rush over to various afterschool spots to get food as soon as the bell rings. But which one is the best? I ranked ten of the most popular spots, so you know where to go next time you're out! Every place I ranked with the same criteria, which included: average price, taste, seating, wait time, how busy it is, and distance from our school. Since this criteria wasn’t based solely on taste the rankings migh
