By Tiger ShiWeb Content Contributor “Would you please turn on the night light?” Seven-year-old me asked my mother this after she tucked me into bed and was about to leave my room. I had one reason most children have for doing this: scared of ghosts. Now I, as an adult, am still scared but skeptical. However, I don’t use an energy bill-racking light bulb to face it.

By Tiger Shi Web Content Contributor We all know that feeling. Whether it was a memorable Super Bowl game, a tense presidential election or an award-winning movie …it always went down in history.

I just don’t see the point of printing them when the digital age […]
By Tiger ShiWeb Content Contributor *Heads up, Spoilers Ahead* I grew up watching the shows “The Clone Wars” (2008-2020) and“Star Wars: Rebels” (2014-2018).

I grew up watching Yao Ming play […]
