(Above) After Eid prayers are finished, everyone goes outside and wishes, "Eid Mubarak" or, "Happy Eid" to each other. This is where Muslims are able to meet with their friends and celebrate Eid together. At my local mosque, after Eid prayers occur, there are usually tons of food and treats outside. There is also toys and games children can buy, and that is when I go home and we give each other Eidi, or money, as a gift. According to bbcgoodfood.com, "Eid is all about feasting since it comes after a month of fasting (Muslims are not permitted to fast on this day). Whilst there is no set menu for what should be on the table, dishes prepared are always rich and decadent."

The green colored glass pieces are supposed to represent bushes and vines, while the other colors are different types of flowers, fruits, and vegetables. Louis Comfort Tiffany’s goal for this piece was to show the visitors the full and best view of nature. The statue behind the door panels is supposed to represent the perspective of walking through that beauty of nature and how nothing is holding back that beauty.

Mardi Gras, which means “Fat Tuesday” in French, has roots that go back to ancient times. It started as a way to celebrate before the season of Lent, which means they fast. People would eat fatty foods on the day before Lent to use them up before the fasting began. It was brought to America by French settlers, and overtime became a big festival. Today, Mardi Gras is known for its grand celebrations, especially in New Orleans, and is a huge event before Lent begins.

It’s always good to show the kids new skills and making them try something new. So in the future, hopefully they will stick with it and love it as much as I do.” After talking to the athletes they started to follow his instructions after watching an example of what to copy. With more practice the athletes began to finally under- stand the importance of coordination whether it is playing together or just practicing by themselves.

The usage of vibrant, stark colors and graphic designs makes the interior not look drab and bland like some other fast food chains. It creates a welcoming environment that fosters a dine-in experience just as much as a drive-through experience. Today, it is common for most places to be more of a drive through kind of restaurant due to the lack of atmospheric aesthetic and cost that dressier interiors require.

(Above) While the Pride is one of only three professional women’s sports teams in Florida, it isn’t the last. With Orlando Pride, the USSSA Pride, Florida’s professional softball team, has inspired young women in the state to pursue their athletic careers after their establishment in 2009. This is seen by the addition of the Orlando Valkyries, a professional volleyball team, that started their first season in January. Similarly, the United Soccer League is starting the first season of their Division I Super League (USLS) this coming August, with two Florida soccer teams joining—Fort Lauderdale United FC and Tampa Bay Sun FC—and teams from Jacksonville and Palm Beach joining USLS in 2025.

Athletes began right off of Amelia Avenue with a 2.2 mile loop through the business district, did three 8.8 miles loops through the Milk District, and finished at Lake Eola. The run included long, flat, straight stretches which gave athletes a more even playing field.

However, it was not until the 1990s when a focus on healthier and more balanced diets, accompanied by many Vietnamese immigrants, produced pho restaurants that began popping up in America, primarily in California. Now, pho can be found in nearly all metropolitan areas, such as Orlando’s Mills50 District.

(Above) In Autumn, Wekiwa Spring’s wildflowers flourish. The dry ground found on the latter end of the White Trail loop provides the perfect soil for composites, or flowers in the daisy family. These yellow buds also support the migrating butterfly and moth populations, especially Polyphemus moths. The purple flowers, dense gayfeather, however, are native to the summer-time and die in the fall and winter months. This cycling of plants keeps Wekiwa Spring’s soil fertile and provides necter for pollinators. Two years ago Lake County Parks and Trails and the Florida Wildflower Foundation teamed together to develop pollinator habitat Wekiwa-Ocala Greenway. By planting small trees, shrubs, wildflowers, and, most importantly, milkweed, they hope to raise the bee population which has seen a dramatic decline in the past years due to the increase use of pesticides in nature.

(Above) Concerts are undeniably crucial to the vitality and essence of folk music. Folk music, at its core, is an art form rooted in community and human connection. Live performances are the lifeblood of this genre, as they provide an unparalleled platform for artists to engage with their audience in an intimate and authentic manner. Folk concerts, or better yet, festivals, offer an environment where stories are shared, traditions are preserved, and emotions are conveyed with raw sincerity. Folk concerts also serve as a way to promote cultural heritage, allowing artists to pass down oral traditions and keep ancient songs and stories alive. This is seen best through not-so-mainstream artists such Creole folk singer, Bo Dollis’s concerts before his passing in 2015. Through concerts, folk music finds its truest expression, preserving its authenticity and reminding us of the timeless importance of storytelling and shared experiences in the human journey.

(Above) The cosmetic industry plays a significant role in fueling ageism by perpetuating unrealistic beauty standards and promoting products that promise to reverse or prevent the signs of aging. Many companies within this industry capitalize on society's obsession with youth, often employing marketing tactics that reinforce ageist stereotypes. For instance, beauty brands like L'Oréal have come under scrutiny for campaigns that seemingly celebrate older women but still emphasize their products' "anti-aging" properties. Similarly, companies like Estée Lauder market their products with phrases like "turn back the clock" and "age-defying," further contributing to the notion that aging is something to be feared and avoided at all costs. Like plastic surgery, topical remedies for aging won’t transform you. Billion-dollar companies aren’t dedicated to making the world look younger. They’re preying on easy insecurities, and we fall for it every time. In 2021, the global anti-aging market was estimated to be worth about 62.6 billion U.S. dollars according to Statistica, and this number is expected to increase significantly in the next few years.

Since the introduction of women in the F.B.I. in 1972, the agency has worked hard to ensure equal representation among men and women. As of May 2023, 58.4% of the professional careers in the F.B.I. are occupied by women, and 23.5% of special agents are women according to fbijobs.com. The increase in diversity is also reflected by the trainees on the Lake Highland track.

The line between cruelty-free and ethical is blurry. For example, the brand behind the Benefit Brow Bar in Ulta, Benefit Cosmetics, claims to be cruelty-free, claiming, “All Benefit products undergo very strict tolerance tests using non-animal methods during the procedure of each product,” on its website. However, what the company fails to mention is that animal testing can occur after the product is created such as pre-market testing and post-market testing. The old status quo of whether a brand was cruelty-free or not was if it sold products in China, but since recent laws now let “general cosmetics” be imported into China without animal testing, the line has become even blurrier. Benefit Cosmetics’ hair dye and freckle remover fall under the category of “special cosmetics” and thus require animal testing. To bypass the confusion entirely, I recommend that you stick with brands that are undoubtedly cruelty-free. My favorite ethical brands are Native, E.L.F., Glossier, and Rare Beauty.

(Above) The fan project that has dominated the Eras’ Tour has been trading friendship bracelets, which is inspired by the lyric, “So make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it” from the song, “You’re On Your Own Kid” on Swift’s newest album, Midnights. Fans, such as Kathryn Hudson, grade 11, and Isa Tapia Arocho, grade 11, pictured here, traded before and after the show (or in a McDonald’s like the transaction I saw prior to the doors opening). Another thing that was featured on most fans’ hands was the number 13. This comes from Swift’s affinity for the number as she was born on December 13. In an interview with MTV back in 2009, Taylor Swift explained why she always draws the number on her hand before a show, noting, “I was born on the 13th. I turned 13 on Friday the 13th. My first album went gold in 13 weeks. My first #1 song had a 13-second intro.”

(Above) Following a year of development, the Filipino ice cream parlor, Sampaguita, finally opened its doors on Colonial Drive at the beginning of the new year. Sam- paguita, translating to Arabian Jasmine, is the national flower of the Philippines, and is used in herbal teas and remedies. The restaurant is the sister store of The Greenery Creamery, and with 12 Filipino-inspired flavors, Sampaguita almost serves as a sweet gateway to Filipino cuisine. I visited during its soft opening. Even though I arrived fifteen minutes early, the line already stretched past two of its neighboring stores and, by the time Sampaguita opened, past the block. Selflishly, I hope the demand stays (I could do without the line though). Sampaguita, in all of its trendiness and retro interior, provides much needed representation in an area teeming with other Asian restaurants.

When you walk into Buc-ee’s, the brisket hits you first. The smell, at times nauseating, lingers with you even after leaving. As for the taste, the overall consensus of my family was that it left something to be desired. The meat was dry, overly seasoned, and not worth the hype. Buc-ee’s also sells, “Beaver chips” which are kettle cooked potato chips. They have a similar thick texture to Chipotle’s tortilla chips except smokier, and made up for the brisket.
