Travels with Frank<\/h1>\n[\/heading][vc_column_text]Yesterday I went to Green Valley. It’s a place in West Terre Haute where you can fish and drive your boat. It’s a small park with trails to ride in behind it. I always take my dirt bike on them. You can have deer stands, but it has to be at certain times of the year. In spring, mushroom hunting is permitted. You’re not allowed to swim or have any type of gas powered boat in the water; everything has to be battery operated. If you go towards the dock, There’s a dirt path that takes you to a big yard, but it’s gated. Across the field is a waterfall you can stand on and look down. Across from Green Valley, there’s another lake connected. It’s called John Scott Lake and you will see a ton of snapping turtles. There’s not a lot of spots to fish, but you will catch something easily. If you haven’t been to Green Valley you should try it. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n[\/vc_column_text][heading subtitle=”By Red Bell”]\n

The History of Stained Glass<\/h1>\n[\/heading][vc_column_text]Stained glass was believed to originate from the Middle East as a way to bring light into buildings even with the buildings completely closed. Stained glass was once used by the Romans and Egyptians, who shared their art of stained glass, which eventually led to stained glass being used in Cathedral Churches, who were the only ones who could afford stained glass, they had the most money. Churches used lead wiring (back then no one knew lead wiring was toxic) to create panels for the stained glass, these panels separated the glass into sections, that way if the window were to break, it would only break at that panel, and be easier and more affordable to replace. The stained glass windows were always biblical references, such as Jesus\u2019s Last Supper, Garden of Eden, Virgin Mother Mary, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

An architect named Frank Floyd Wright who made unique shaped buildings started making geometric stained glass in the 1900\u2019s for houses, schools, and museums. The difference between his stained glass and previous designs were his were see-through, they were made to be actual windows, while Cathedral Churches had stained glass you couldn\u2019t see through. Nowadays, geometric shaped stained glass is inspired by Frank Floyd Wright, who sadly passed away in 1973.<\/span>
\n<\/span>This article was inspired by an assignment I did in Mrs. Lindsay’s geometry class which sparked my interest, especially since I used to do little stained glass pieces back in middle school, so I figured I\u2019d share this history with everyone. (Thank you Mrs. Lindsay, if you read this!)<\/span>

    The Pressures of Being a Student-Athlete<\/h1>\n[\/heading][vc_column_text]\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0I have been a member of the cross country team for the past four years. I have loved <\/span>being a runner and making new friends. If I had to do it all over again, I would still choose to do <\/span>cross country, but I would have also prioritized myself more. In high school, there is all of this <\/span>pressure to get perfect grades and to take the hardest classes. If you want to take an easier <\/span>course like regular algebra two compared to advanced algebra two, you\u2019re told that you won\u2019t be <\/span>prepared for college. When I was told that I wouldn\u2019t be prepared for college if I didn\u2019t take the <\/span>hardest classes and would potentially fail in life, that caused me to freak out internally, and I <\/span>ended up taking mostly hard classes. Last year when I was a junior, was by far the worst year of <\/span>high school. Last year I would be lucky to get to bed by 1:00 am. If I had a cross country meet, <\/span>most of the time, I would have to stay up until 3:30 am to do homework or to study for other <\/span>tests I had, so I would only get three hours of sleep that night. I believe that students should be <\/span>given homework because you learn the material that way, but it\u2019s the amount of homework that <\/span>is overwhelming. <\/span>
    \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Last year I was taking a class before I had to drop it because of all the work. The teacher <\/span>would assign hours of homework each night, and the homework wouldn\u2019t be over the same <\/span>material in class. When I asked for help, I felt like I wasn\u2019t really getting the help I needed. I take <\/span>school very seriously and strive to get straight As, so when I had this class, my mental health <\/span>took a deep dive, and I eventually had to drop the class because I couldn\u2019t keep up with it and <\/span>my other classes.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 During the rest of my classes that year, I truly felt like I learned something and that in <\/span>college, I would be able to handle the stress of classes better, but I wish I had been able to <\/span>enjoy my junior year. At cross country practice, I would check out and not want to be there <\/span>because I was worried about completing my homework. All this stress led me to absolutely hate <\/span>cross country that season because I felt like it was a waste of time and that I needed that time to <\/span>do my school work. Even on weekends when I had races, I dreaded it because I knew that as <\/span>soon as I got home that there was homework, I needed to do. Eventually, my stress started <\/span>physically manifesting into full-blown panic attacks, or I would be so stressed that I physically <\/span>couldn\u2019t do anything except for sleep. I also started scratching my face and arms to cope with <\/span>the stress because I didn\u2019t know how else to deal with it, and if you tell others that you are <\/span>struggling, they just tell you to suck it up and get over it. <\/span>
    I know that I could have just gone to bed earlier on school nights, but if I did, I wouldn\u2019t <\/span>have been able to get my homework done, and I wouldn\u2019t have gotten an A on the test I had the <\/span>next day. Student-athletes like myself are expected to be perfect by many people. You <\/span>constantly have people telling you \u201cWell, why didn\u2019t you get a better grade on this test?\u201d or \u201cWhy <\/span>didn\u2019t your team win?\u201d or \u201cWhy didn\u2019t you run faster?\u201d When you feel like the whole world is on <\/span>your shoulders, expecting you to be perfect, it starts getting to you. At the end of my junior year, <\/span>I had straight As and was ranked 2nd in the class, but I spent 95% of my junior year miserable, <\/span>and the other 5% when I was happy was when it was Christmas and Thanksgiving break when I <\/span>didn\u2019t have school work to do. Come back next week to read about what it’s like being a student-athlete from the perspective of Preston Montgomery.\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][heading subtitle=”By Darcee Garrett”]COVID-19 Now[\/heading][vc_column_text]Do you remember what happened in 2020? COVID -19 had taken over our school year and we all got sent home. If you had to think about it, what all has gone on since COVID started? COVID has changed the way we do everything. The way we live our daily lives. From going to schools to stores. These last few months, COVID hasn’t been a big topic of discussion. After the low reports on COVID we stopped worrying about it as much as we did before. Now you can walk into your school and stores without wearing a mask at all. You now can go to football games and school events such as dances and mixers. Everything has gotten better. Mutations of the virus are getting weaker and our immune systems have gotten stronger.

    Top 5 Ways to Improve your Mental Health<\/h1>\n[\/heading][vc_column_text]\n
    \n
    \n
    \n
    \n
    ~ Connecting with other people <\/span>
    Forming good friendships can help you build a sense of belonging <\/span>
    and self worth. It gives you an opportunity to share positive <\/span>
    experiences. It provides emotional support and allows you to support <\/span>
    others.<\/span><\/div>\n

    ~Learning new skills<\/span>
    Focusing on new activities can be a great distraction from <\/span>
    problems going on around you but don\u2019t ignore them forever. <\/span>It can <\/span>
    be a confidence boost and build a sense of purpose. Some activities <\/span>
    can help you connect with others that may be having similar <\/span>
    problems.<\/span><\/div>\n

    ~ Being physically active<\/span>
    Being physically active can raise your self esteem and be a <\/span>
    confidence boost. Staying active can help you set goals or challenges <\/span>
    and achieve them. Being active can cause chemical changes in your <\/span>
    brain which can positively change your mood.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
    \n
    <\/div>\n
    \n
    \n
    ~ Take care of your body and mind<\/span>
    Eating nutritious meals and drinking plenty of water can make you <\/span>
    feel more confident and feel better about yourself. Treat yourself <\/span>
    with kindness and respect and avoid self criticism or putting yourself <\/span>
    down. Try avoiding smoking or drinking. People use alcohol and other <\/span>
    drugs to “self-medicate” but in reality, alcohol and other drugs only <\/span>
    aggravate problems.<\/span><\/div>\n

    ~Pay attention to present moments (mindfulness)<\/span>
    Paying more attention to the present moment can improve your <\/span>
    mental well being. Mindfulness can help you enjoy life more and <\/span>
    understand yourself better. It can positively change the way you feel <\/span>
    about life and how you approach challenges. Don’t dwell on the past, <\/span>
    focus on the present moments because the past is in the past you <\/span>
    can\u2019t change it now.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    Art at West<\/h1>\n[\/heading][vc_column_text]\n
    \n

    \n
    \n
    There is always something one enjoys doing, whether it be playing video games, reading books, <\/span>or writing their own stories. Knowing though in this modern age with technology, a lot of the younger <\/span>generations have forgotten what it was like to get up off the couch and do something more productive <\/span>than focusing on keeping their Snapchat streak up with others. I think we all fell under the same spell <\/span>
    when it comes to technology. Especially after all the stuff that happened with COVID. Having to be in <\/span>quarantine, wearing masks, and not being able to attend school in person every day, was a mess. People <\/span>have learned to adapt to COVID\u2019s limitations and have found ways to express themselves. My favorite way has to be by doing art. There are so many things that others don\u2019t realize that one can do with art, there is really a lot of potential. I asked some fellow peers that enjoy doing art as well to give you an idea of what it means to them. Who knows, maybe I\u2019ll convince you by the end to begin doing art yourself! Art is a broad term used to describe many things like painting, sculpting, and drawing, but for some it has deeper meaning to them. Katie Anderson, a freshman that enjoys drawing, described it as \u201ctherapeutic.\u201d She also stated, \u201cTrying to get your emotions out can be very difficult for somebody, so drawing it out can be helpful with coping.\u201d Guerin Doty, also a freshman that enjoys spending time drawing, stated, \u201cIt\u2019s a great way to relax, and a neat party trick.\u201d Everyone at one point enjoyed doing art when they were young, sitting on the living room floor with all their crayons across the<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    ground drawing what was supposed to look like a dog on a sheet of paper, but came out looking more like <\/span>an abstract cow. As people grow up though, they may lose interest eventually. Some get inspired later in <\/span>life and a spark gets lit. The desire to perfect their art skills nags at them, so they decided to take <\/span>action. Alex McKinney and Guerin Doty both were inspired around the time COVID hit. For Katie, she <\/span>
    was inspired around 13 by her art teacher\u2019s drawings and wanted to be like her. Having good art skills <\/span>takes time, so it takes a lot of patience with yourself. Alex stated that drawing proportions and depth are <\/span>the hardest things for him to do. Guerin talked about how it\u2019s hard to draw characters in poses without a <\/span>decent reference. Criticizing yourself has to be one of the biggest mental challenges one will face when <\/span>drawing. I myself struggle with that when drawing something. You may think your drawing looks <\/span>absolutely horrible. Mr. Hutchins, the previous middle school art teacher, always said, \u201cThere are no <\/span>mistakes when it comes to art. You can always find a way to make the drawing look even better.\u201d <\/span>Art is how you define it. Alex said, \u201cDraw what you see, how YOU see it.\u201d Being an artist means <\/span>
    you get to be the captain of your ship. Katie stated, \u201cDrawing can be beautiful and unique in so many <\/span>ways, just like the artist. Even if it\u2019s a simple doodle, you can express yourself without being judged.\u201d <\/span>You can be you.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”2\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][heading subtitle=”By Mallorey Fischer”]\n

This year it is being held at West Vigo High School. In previous years, it has rotated around all the high schools in the Vigo County District. You have to be a junior or senior to attend this year, but they are trying to get it where freshmen and sophomores can go in the future. You don’t have to plan to go to college to attend this event.<\/span><\/p>\n

    According to our counseling department, the fair helps students connect with colleges, trades, industries, law enforcement, and many other post secondary opportunities. The career fair was created about 4-5 years ago. It was made to help the students connect with the careers they may want to go into and maybe even discover an option they didn\u2019t know existed. The colleges that are involved are from all over Indiana, both public and private including Saint Marys, Indiana State University, and Ivy Tech . There are over 30 colleges . The Vigo County School Corporation runs the Wabash Valley Career and College Fair.

    Vikings Question of the Week<\/h1>\n[\/heading][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0This week’s question of the week was, what is your favorite animal? We had a total of 131 <\/span>responses as this is being written. The winning animal was the dwarf goat. Dwarf Goats are <\/span>small friendly goats that are based out of Africa. They produce dairy and have just recently been <\/span>approved by the U.S. Agriculture Department as a livestock diary goat. This means that they <\/span>are now eligible for youth 4-H and FFA projects. The second highest vote was a dog with 6 votes <\/span>and in third place a cow with 5 votes.\u00a0 Overall, many people think that the dwarf goat is the best animal.

against South Vermillion. The Lady Vikes won the game 5-1. The boys team played beforehand and unfortunately lost. Having the boys play first left the girls to play under the lights\u2026..FINALLY! That night was also senior night; the girls team only has one senior this year, Katelyn Fennell. Instead of the girls calling it senior night they called it Fennell Night. As a freshman on the team, I will tell you this about Fennell, she never fails to make the team laugh and makes even the hardest games or practices worth it. One game day, the coach was trying to get us girls hyped up by saying it’s game day! Fennell has now made it something that when we break it down, that’s what we scream. On Fennell Night, the girls got shirts that said \u201cIt’s Game Day ”. \u00a0 Players wore them as we warmed up for the Fennell Night game. <\/span><\/p>\n

    Even though <\/span>both teams lost, the Vikings fought hard in their games. Both teams went against North <\/span>Putnam on Tuesday September 6, 2022 the girls were away while the boys were at <\/span>home. The girls won their game 11-3. The boys lost their game 1-1.
