Down the rabbit hole

As a result from the amount of pressure placed on them, students experience a toxic shift in their "grind" mindset. “We’re all teenagers, we don’t really have habits yet. I mean I think we’re all messes deep down but then also there is just so much work that's being expected of us,” senior Helen Kangus said. All the pressures students experience impacts their mental health.

Productivity pressures

Taylor Swift sings “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?” on night three of the Paris shows, her third time after debuting “THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT” two nights prior. She levitates down stage on the rover, which is driven by a crew member from inside.

End of the eras

LEGO offers a large collection of Star Wars themed sets. This year is the 25th anniversary of LEGO Star Wars, according to lego.com.

LEGO’s lasting legacy

As girls in gen alpha follow trends popular with adults and teenagers, girls in gen z follow more nostalgic trends. “I feel like so many girly aesthetics have become popular again because social media is so widely used now and when girls see other girls online having a certain aesthetic, they’ll tend to want to do the same,” senior Merna Jazrawy said. The difference in the opposing trends that became popular between both generations suggested how social media negatively and positively affected trend cycles.

Sign of the times

Sports

Senior Isaac Ammori and his family are at Lambeau field in Green Bay, Wisconsin, to watch the Lions take on the Packers on Sunday, Nov. 3. This was Ammori’s first time at Lambeau field and one of ten games he plans to go to this season. “It was an exciting game because I've never been to Lambeau Field, and my dad's always wanted to go since he was a little kid,” Ammori said.

Sunday night super fan

Weston Szudarek and other graduates huddle up together watching the introductions. With nerves taking over they stand there and acknowledge the event that's happening. "I was nervous, it was my first year of hockey but the seniors helped me through it and calmed me down." said Szudarek

Season of Redemption

Preparing for the upcoming season, Eisenhower and Utica High School’s bowling teams merge to bolster their numbers. The bowlers are joined by new head coach John Mazza as well as Taran Heersma and Mark Harden. "Both programs were very good last year, and we're basically taking a mix of the best of both programs and putting it into one team," Mazza said.

Merging lanes

The varsity basketball team is lined up for the national anthem prior to their home opener on Tuesday, Nov. 26. “There were a lot of nerves and many guys were playing for the first time. You simply can’t win with that many team fouls,” senior Alexander Edgar said. The Eagles lost 70-54 against Roseville but look to bounce back in their upcoming matchups.

Heart over height

Seniors Jack Bullock and Bryce Hurley walk off of the field for the last time in their high school careers. "It sucks but I wouldn't trade that season for anything," Bullock said. Both players were awarded MAC Red All-League Honors, with Hurley winning MAC Red MVP.
