One of the most important things I learned in the past 5 years is how to respond to an apology, something you may not have even thought about before.

"It's ok" is now safely reserved for those moments when someone...

February has come around once again. For the past couple of weeks I've seen people complain about how long January has been and how they can't wait for it to be over, and yet I've had an amazing month filled with fun things.

But this year, there was a huge youth turn out in the general election. Young people are interested in politics, and what is going on in the country and the world.  We use this...
