Belevie. Beleve. Beli. Believe. Autocorrect will take over before the backspace is even pressed. The tool has taken over the keyboard, with red and blue underlines correcting mistakes before anyone can fully process them. For senior Grace Zheng, such technology has complicated her relationship with writing. “I feel like my spelling has gotten a lot worse because I’m so used to autocorrect, and I find it more difficult to remember certain words when I want to use them,” Zheng said.

I recently went through a much needed deep cleaning of my bedroom, and I was delighted to rediscover some prized souvenirs from previous trips: an autograph book from my first visit to Walt Disney World, a t-shirt from Austin, postcards from St. Petersburg, and a mug from Holiday World. I was immediately brought back to some of my favorite travel memories. I know the situation all too well.

How did you start gardening? Growing up, my family has always had gardens and indoor houseplants, so it’s always been in my life. As I grew older, I gained a deeper fascination for nature and plants, and was even one of the counselors in charge of leading activities on the farm at my summer camp last summer. So, gardening has always been a part of my life, and as I’ve grown older, I’ve gained more appreciation for it and have become more involved in it. What is your favorite thing to grow?

Walking into the theater to watch “Saturday Night,” I wouldn’t consider myself a “Saturday Night Live” (SNL) fan. I have never watched an episode in its entirety, and could probably name only ten cast members if I was asked to. Despite my lack of knowledge, I left feeling like I had a newfound appreciation for a show I had never seen. “Saturday Night” sets out to tell the events leading up to the first-ever broadcast of SNL, specifically the 90 minutes before going live.

Upon release, “Megalopolis” saw mixed reviews from critics. Some viewed it as an absolute masterpiece, while others viewed it as the worst film of the year. When I sat down for my Friday night showing of “Megalopolis,” only one other person joined me in the theater. I hoped for the best. Unfortunately, what I saw that night could best be described as a disaster. “Megalopolis” is the brainchild of famed director Francis Ford Coppola, who has attempted to get the movie in production since 1982.
