The Art of Creating Problems
Vesa Debora Sara 11th Grade D We are born with no knowledge, no concept of time, nor space, only with needs and different purposes. Thus, we are firstly curious, wanting and trying to learn and understand as much as we humanly possibly can at the time, on matters that we’re interested in.

Breaking Ancient Post High School Stereotypes
Ursuțiu Miruna 10th Grade A Often, when reaching this tumultuous stage of our lives, everything becomes a game of Dominos. One event triggers another, and another, until all the pieces come falling down and suddenly, Hurrah! You’ve finished 12 th grade alive and in one piece. Although it would be a piece of cake to finish high school with a clear mind, what often troubles our intellect ever since 10 th grade are the people surrounding us constantly bugging us regarding what
