Volleyball player perseveres despite others' skepticism (5/07)
Written by Helene Servillon   
On Sept. 17, 2004, Barry Bonds hit his 700th home run and joined an exclusive group that includes baseball’s two finest players, Hank Aaron and Babe Ruth.
 
Individuality overlooked in public education (5/07)
Written by Aaron Kingon   
The purpose of school is to build bridges — create opportunities for young people by providing them with the education and tools necessary to be successful in life.
 
Studying abroad teaches a broader sense of peace (5/07)
Written by Madeleine Anderson   
Sitting cross-legged on my rug, I close my eyes and breathe through my nose the way a yoga teacher once instructed me. I try to relax and find peace within myself, but the flow of thoughts clamoring for attention prevents me from doing so. Shoot — another failed attempt at meditating.

 
YMCA gladiators not timid with taking revenge on weaklings (4/07)
Written by Hannah Safford   
They come relentlessly, armed and ready to battle. Their imposing presence and defined physiques strike fear into the hearts of the bravest challengers, and their steely stares convince all of their lack of fear. Who are these fighters?
 
Asian wants to be seen as more (4/07)
Written by Weina Zhao   
I have been the victim of name-calling. As cute and harmless as names like “twinkie” and “banana” sound, their meaning is less appealing.
 
Despite anxiety, skydiving brings serenity (3/07)
Written by Katie Wheeler-Dubin   
There’s nothing but blue horizon ahead of me. To my right are the Sierra Mountains. To my left, I can see Monterey Bay. There’s a roaring in my ears so loud I can’t hear myself screaming in exhilaration.

Flip-flpos are flippin' out the fashion world (3/07)
Written by Eve Denton   
Thongs they’re called in Australia. In New Zealand, they are known as jandels. Here in the States, we recognize flip-flops.
 
Advice to you men: If you can braid that hair, shave that hair (3/07)
Written by Mellina Stoney   
Dear Guys:

Since the beginning of time humans have had hair. However, it seems that over the past ten thousand years, nature — or God — has decided that body hair is less necessary. Men have shed most of their body hair, yet some still cling to their primitive past, flaunting leg, arm, chest, stomach, back, chin and shoulder hair.

 
Life-long memories outweight swimsuit wedgies any day (3/07)
Written by Sanyee Yuan   
“Butt-glue me!” An exasperated voice rises shrilly over the clamor of girls fluttering around a cramped room. Sequined tops are hurriedly yanked off and multicolored miniskirts fly in all directions while the scent of fruity hairspray pervades the air.
