For Teens, By Teens
OFF THE WALL
Movie review
Mission accomplished —
reviewer says, film a hit Teen page new 'Citizen' feature
By Erin Roulston
Welcome readers! This is the first edition of The Norm Huron Citizen's
teen page. It's a page designated just for the teens of our area as well as
designed by teens.
We will feature interviews with teens, stories and pictures from our
readers, coming events, movie reviews, Letters to the Editor and anything
you ask for. You'll be able to find the page only within The Citizen every
other week.
First on our agenda is to find a name for our page. If you have a good idea
send it in, and if we use your name you win a prize (we haven't decided
what yet; we're looking for something really good). We need a name that
applies to teens, but nothing cheesy.
Secondly, the volunteer staff on our teen page is still rather small, so if
you're between 13 and 19 and are interested in journalism, photography, or
just need something to do, we'd love for you to join us.
And of course since this page is just for you, we need your input to know
what you want to read. If you have story ideas, someone you know who
should be featured on our page, or if you have pictures or a piece of writing
you'd like us to print, mail it to (Blyth and Brussels office, Box 152,
Brussels or Box 429, Blyth) or drop it off during office hours in Blyth or
Brussels.
I hope you enjoy this new feature and that you visit us again next time.

Will it be brain drain or social
pain?
It's exam week. How do you
juggle time with friends and still
try to make the grade?
Picture this: two classmates, one
out partying, the other in his room,
spending every waking hour
preparing for his English exam.
Maybe the first student is having
more fun, but who will have the
last laugh? This is not to say that
you shouldn't do anything but
study, but having too much fun can
lead to failure or mean cramming
the day before.
Since people learn different
ways, studying several hours a day,
seven days a week isn't necessarily
your best bet. It can give you
headaches, make you tired or
restless, or even make you forget
everything. Cracking under the
pressure of making honour roll, or
even passing, can be avoided by
studying the right way.
Have you been told to study
alone, in an area with no
distractions, and no music? Do you
find you have trouble concentrating
like this?
You could try turning on the
stereo or studying With friends in
that course. If you find it
impossible to study for long, take a

If you're like me you've probably
never even heard of the TV show
Mission Impossible. That's until
now, over three decades since the
original series aired.
Expectations are being set high
for this movie. Paramount is
expecting it to go into the highest
money making movies in all of
history. What is all the hype really
about?
Mission Impossible would all
PROFILE

Imagine having the chance to go
to Atlanta this summer for the
Olympic Games.
Well, not only is Steve
McCowan doing just that, but he is
also among the 22 physically
challenged athletes who will be
representing Canada at the
Paralympic Games which run
parallel to the Olympics.
Steve, who graduated from
Central Huron Secondary School
this year, is renowned for his
accomplishments in track and field.
Recently, at the Canadian games
for the physically challenged, he
won gold in the running long lump
and 4X100 relay, and silver in the
100 metre race. Such accomplish-
ments as these are what won him a
place on the Canadian Paralympic
Team.
To prepare for the games, Steve,
who has cerebral palsy, will be
joining the other team members in
Oklahoma from July 12 - 21, where
they will have a chance to train in a
first class facility with a similar
climate to Atlanta.
Steve, who will be heading to
Cambrien College in Sudbury in
September, hopes to continue with
his training there. His goals are to
compete in the 1997 and 1998
World Championships and the
2000 Paralympics in Sidney,
Australia.
When I asked Steve what advice
he had for his peers, all he said
was, "Set attainable goals, work
hard and have fun" — can't beat
that!
From all of us, good luck Steve
and we hope to hear about all your
gold medals from Atlanta.
around have to be the best movie
I've ever seen. It will have your
jaws drop with surprise, and that's a
guarantee. You'll probably only use
the edge of your seat for most of
the movie because of the sheer
suspense and the loads of action.
The thing I liked best was that,it
ignored traditional stereotypes of
men and women; the characters
played equally risky parts.
Tom Cruise and the entire cast of
Mission Impossible give some of
the best performances ever.
The writers did such a good job
adding plot twists and countless
surprises that at times you may
become confused. This movie will
definitely leave you exiting the
theatre asking questions, but these
small flaws are hardly worth
mentioning because the movie is so
good.
This is one film you do not want
to miss, so go and spend the money
and see it. You won't regret it.
THIS WEEK'S TOP 10
short break when you feel you're
losing concentration.
Go out with friends every once in
awhile; you don't have to kill your
social life.
Many who like to leave
everything to the last minute will
find themselves trying to cram an
entire semester's work into a 24-
hour study study period. Although
this works in a few cases, most will
not remember much more than they
could the day before.
Below is a random survey of
some students at F. E. Madill S. S.,
Grades 9 to OAC, on how they
cope with the stress of exams.
Although some ideas aren't
recommended, others may help you
cope.
TOP 10
How do you cope with
the stress of exams:
10. Study through the night every
day of the week.
9. Freak out.
8. Party.
7. Workout (exercise to keep
mind off exams).
6. Go Relax (eg. on the beach).
5. Take frequent breaks.
4. Hang out with friends.
3. Listen to music.
2. Study with friends.
1. Forget about exams, then
cram the day before.
