Sleep longer, watch TV, Do anything you want, you are free!

“Unforgiven,” a movie review by Abhi Sukhdial, 12

Post Published April 15, 2020 by Abhi Sukhdial

I wake up to rustling, like a lost mouse Scurrying from an invisible threat. Dad is getting up early to go to the store. But why, I ask, Why can’t we go to Starbucks Like we always do?

We’ve raided local stores, abandoned empty shelves upon empty shelves, and stockpiled our pantries with milk and toilet paper. We take lengths to avoid the news or we read every last article we can find.

Unrest in Hong Kong by Daniel, 10

Post Published April 12, 2020 by Daniel Zhu

I set roadblocks.” Seven years ago, this would not be something a typical Hong Kong citizen could say truthfully. However, in 2014, everything changed.
