What in the world just happened? I shared one of my passion projects with my new English teacher, and her response totally threw me off. It honestly reads like something generated by AI—there’s no way she writes like that! On top of that, her assignments and grading feel a bit […]

Someone was caught with a BuzzBall. So, when class started, we had to move to a different classroom because our teacher wasn’t at school yet. While we were leaving, two staff members discovered a BuzzBall can in the trash. They asked a couple of people if it belonged to them, […]
