Vending Machines

The machines are very helpful and useful for peoples thirst and hunger needs.You can find the vending machines around the cafeteria, near the gym area, and in the freshman academy.  Most of the machines have candy, chips, soda, or water, and also have the ice cream machine. The vending machines have pretty good prices for the stuff they have in them. They have at least one thing for someone in the school, because they have a variety of what is in them. Something they should do is add some vending machines in the upstairs area. One thing they need to do is keep the machines in stock better because most of the time people walk by them they have some things not in stock. The new machine that has ice cream has not been started yet and it has been there for a few months now. One of the machines says it doesn’t have anything in it and that doesn’t really make sense. They should add some different things to the machines because they could get more sales then they do now. Some people would say they aint good because they are not fully in stock, but even with one of them not fully in stock some of the machines still have the same things. To me the machines are kinda mixed on good and bad because they do have something for someone, they also aren’t always in stock so it’s kinda mixed.

Suicide Squad movie

The suicide squad movie was produced by DC films and director James Gunn. The movie in my opinion is really exciting, thrilling, and violent. The Suicide Squad is a group of villians trying to get rid of there prison sentence by saving the world and doing good deeds and if they dont there leader Amanda Waller will blow them up if they fail. The team consists of Harley Quinn, Bloodsport, Peacemaker, Colonel Rick Flag, Captain Boomerang, The Thinker, Sol Sorla, Blackguard, Polka dot man, Savant, Mongal, TDK, Ratcatcher 2, King Shark, Weasel, Javelin, and Amanda Waller. This movie is supposed to take place after the first Suicide Squad movie in 2016. In my opinion the second one is better than the first one. It’s better because the second villain was better in so many ways, the second one also was more thrilling and funny. The second one had a lot more known actors like John Cena, Sylvester Stallone, and Michael Rooker with many more. You can watch the movie on Amazon Prime Video, Vudu, Apple TV, Microsoft Movies, HBO Max, and YouTube. The movie is rated R because it has a lot of violence and some language. Some people would say that this movie is like all of the other superhero movies but this one is a lot different. This has more action and has different heroes and villains that haven’t been in any superhero movie before until now. Most of the characters haven’t been used in many of the comics and now they are gonna make movies and shows for some of the characters. In the movie there are some iconic moments that happen throughout the movie. All in all “The Suicide Squad movie” is really unique and exciting. 

What classes students like at Carter High

Students in the school have choices for what their favorite classes are, because there are so many more to choose from. One of the people named Nathan Shelley said his favorite class is welding with Mr. Sherrod. He said “he likes that class because the class is interesting and the teacher makes it fun.” Before you can take welding class you have to take a manufacturing class in the school.The other person I talked to was named Lane York. He likes the band class with Mr. Needham the most. He said “ I like it because I like music. In band you get to play instruments and play them at games and concerts. There are so many classes in the school it can be hard just to pick one class that is a favorite to some people. Some people have multiple  classes to like at Carter, because there are so many classes to choose from.

Profile of Prestan Thomas

Prestan Thomas is a fourteen year old freshman and loves to cook and create new things. He is a computer nerd and also a gamer. He corrects other students when they mispronounce a word. He has to be one of the most unique people I have ever met. I have seen with my own eyes him making cool objects out of just paper. He has done origami and has made a balloon and boat. He is the only person I have known to say the word “beans” at least twenty times a day. He is a very good gamer though he loves to play fortnite and has a youtube channel. He is one of the students of Ms. Wade’s cooking class.

They talk and watch presentations about mental health and teen pregnancy in this class also. There have been multiple times he brings food home for me and my nanny to taste and it is always something good. They have made red lobster cheddar biscuits and easy beef goulash. This week they are making vegetarian pizza. When they are not watching or cooking anything they have been doing crossword puzzles. Ms. Wade has told her students that she wants them to succeed in life and she shows them how to cook less simple foods because she wants them to be prepared when they are on their own in the future. Prestan had told Ms. Wade on Friday, November 5th 2021, “Ms. Wade, your class is probably one of the best classes that I’ve ever had”.

Opinion: Mrs. Chun’s class in the best

I think more students need to be interested in this class. The class is about the human body and also biology in animals. Most students may think that class is hard but it’s really not. When I took the class, it turned out to be my favorite class of all time. I love learning about biology and everything that comes along with it. You don’t just learn about animals, you learn about the body and a little bit about genetics. There is also a lesson on the genetics of people with disabilities. That lesson is showing what happened to the genetics of that person in general. Some students may be pretty surprised on what you could learn about in that class. This class may be able to help students like myself find out what they really want to do. So lets say that a student wants to know if they like biology or anything to do with biology they could take mrs. chunns class and finds out for sure. Mrs.chunns class is fun, even when you’re learning. The learning is what makes it fun, not only learning about what goes on in animals bodies but also what goes on in the human body. To me learning about genetics was the best part. I loved learning how genetics worked, and how they may affect some people in the world. Some of the students may find that this class is pretty fun and interesting at the same time.

Movie Review: Venom Let There Be Carnage

Title: Venom: Let There Be Carnage

Director: Andy Serkis

Starring: Tom Hardy and Woody Harrelson

Studio: Sony Pictures

Featuring production companies: Marvel Entertainment and Columbia Pictures

Release date: October 1st, 2021

Available: There are no platforms streaming this movie for now but you can see it in theaters depending on if your local theater is playing it.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage is a long-awaited movie by audiences all around. This movie has such a good vibe and story to it, but the movie itself feels like a filler movie to fill in the wait time for other upcoming movies. However, there is a very important scene towards the end that links to the upcoming movies. There is so much going on in the Marvel Cinematic Universe right now and so many upcoming films and shows that fans are very excited and thankful for. This movie is the most recent addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and if you get the chance to watch this movie, there are so many notes that you need to take and remember for upcoming movies, so it is literally a must-see.

This movie takes place after the first Venom movie and before Marvel Studios’ Eternals and Spider-Man: No Way Home, this movie featured many production companies like Columbia Pictures and Marvel Entertainment but Sony Pictures Entertainment is the company that released the movie, which featured Tom Hardy and Woody Harrelson.

 In Venom: Let There Be Carnage, main character Eddie Brock struggles to live normally and get along with alien symbiote Venom, while trying to deal with a situation with a serial killer, Cletus Kasady, who eventually becomes a host for Venom’s spawn Carnage, who gives Cletus Kasady more of an advantage to take revenge on the people who have done him wrong, including Eddie Brock. 

I think this movie is very astonishing with amazing animation and effects all throughout the movie, the storyline was a bit complex but it was understandable, interesting, and attention-holding, also another thing they did well in this movie was how they dived deeper into the characters’ pasts and how all the characters related through rough pasts and alike trauma, it’s hard to throw hard topics, like traumatizing childhoods, into movies, but they made it work nicely and this showed why each character had the motivations they had, so it made the movie and characters easier to understand, and also I think they did a great job at throwing in clues for upcoming Marvel Studios movies. The whole movie did kind of feel like a time filler movie to entertain fans while they wait for the bigger upcoming films that are coming out later in the year and early next year, and another thing in the movie that might be confusing to some is some pop culture references, for example, my parents didn’t like the film too much because of the references. Overall I loved the movie despite the rushedness and fast pace of it, it was very enjoyable to watch with my family and I would definitely recommend this to everyone. I would rate it a 9.5/10.

Mr. O’malley’s Markers Restored the Joy of Life

Many school items hold quality and function to prepare for the school semester; however none come nearly as close to as the quality of Mr. O’malley’s markers. The markers in his classroom offer a variety of education opportunities that create various versions of quality. The overall quality of these markers are bold and appealing to the eyes. The markers effortlessly glide across the board, giving satisfaction to those who use these outstanding markers. These are the perfect markers to get anything accomplished. I have never seen such objects of perfection that write with such satisfying precision. They bring warmth to my soul and give life the color it has long since needed.

The various markers shown here

The only actual issues with these markers would have to be that some are not of equal quality. Some of the markers are absolutely atrocious and should not have been brought upon the school. I have never found myself so pained to write with such infuriating markers. While most markers are one hundred percent functional, some of them have the short end of the stick. Never have I been more disappointed with the lack of quality from these atrocious markers. I’d never seen such terrible quality from an orange marker until now. It was an incredible and immeasurable amount of disappointment that came over me to see that the orange marker was terrible. A few other colors had also the worst level of quality I’d ever seen. I would have preferred an intense and permanent blindness over having to ever witness such a terrible quality from those few selections of markers. While these small amounts of markers were abysmal in nature, most of them are a form of perfection in hand held form. I would highly recommend these markers even if some have issues, truly the perfect markers to teach the people of the future. This is an overall perfect product that needed to be spoken of.

Review: Carter High School Food

Photo of a lunch served here at Carter High School.

The school food here at Carter High School has its likes and dislikes, but why is the food disliked so much? One reason could be that the fried foods are too oily, or the bread is stale. The biggest reason for me, is that it’s not very braces-friendly, I have braces, and the food options at Carter tend to always get stuck in my braces and pose a risk of breaking a bracket or bending a wire, but my main dislike is the how long it takes me to get all of that food out of my braces. Having food stuck in your braces can cause problems, like irritation or soreness in the area, which I have had happen to me many times due to eating breakfast or lunch at Carter. So many students have braces, so I feel like making school food a bit more brace-friendly would be nice for us students with braces.

The main concern for me is bready foods and stale foods. Bready foods get stuck in braces very easily and it is hard to get out depending on how thick or airy the bread is, and stale foods pose a risk of bending a wire or breaking a bracket. Breaking a bracket or bending a wire can lengthen the time you have braces which I don’t think anyone with braces wants a longer treatment, and this also might introduce more payment on the braces treatment depending on how many times it happens. In conclusion, school food isn’t all bad, it’s actually pretty good, but I recommend being cautious while eating it if you have braces because of the food getting stuck and also because of the possibility of breaking or bending a wire. From a person with braces, I would rate the food here at Carter, a 6/10, the food is still good, but it’s just risky for me to eat.
