All our stories, in chronological order
It cannot be denied that 2011 was an uh-mazing year and during last week’s #RAGEchat, we discussed the most memorable things that happened throughout the year. @AcahMadinah: ATTENDING MGMT’S CONCERT. Haha, that was one of the BEST 2011 moments ever! @peitzeKristin: Most memorable? Went to the National Service @ Kem Nilam Ehsan, Bidor, Perak & […]
By VIVY YUSOF alltherage@thestar.com.my I am sitting on my bed, but only a tiny portion of it. What’s taking up the space? My clothes! To welcome 2012, I wanted to de-clutter my room. With a neat and organised space around you, your mind becomes more at peace. Plus you don’t waste time having to search […]
We’ve all been there before – making our lists in January and telling ourselves that things will be different this year and that we’ll actually stick to our resolutions. But sometimes it feels like the only sure-fire way to fulfill your New Year resolutions would be to resolve to NOT fulfill them. What exactly is […]
JUST like that, 2011 has passed us by and so much has happened in the technology world. Both of us can hardly keep up with what’s been happening, given the break-neck speed at which things changed and developed all year long. More significantly, technology has shown this year that it matters beyond the world of […]
The Malaysia Youth 4 EcoGreen Initiative hopes to inspire a green lifestyle. By TAN CHOON SAM alltherage@thestar.com.my IMAGINE a world without pollution. How wonderful would it be to behold the beauty of lush green all around you? In reality, it is a fast fading picture. To save our one and only beloved planet, we have […]
Exciting new gadgets THERE were many new compact cameras and DSLRs released throughout 2011 but if I have to choose one that excites me the most, it definitely has to be Canon’s latest flagship DSLR, EOS 1D-X. Canon revolutionised the EOS-1D series camera with the introduction of EOS 1D-X, set to replace both EOS-1D Mark […]

By ZAIN HD alltherage@thestar.com.my THE common thread running through 2011 for me was education. That’s my takeout when I look through the various chapters of 2011. I took part in initiatives such as the campaign to encourage people to vote UndiMsia, discussions on the teaching of Maths and Science in English (PPSMI), and the Bersih […]
Young people can be catalysts of change. By NATASHA IMAN alltherage@thestar.com.my YOUTHS are often reminded they are the future decision makers, future destiny shapers, our future leaders of tomorrow. With such great things expected of us, it is indeed distressing to hear of debates as to whether the youth population can bring positive change and […]
Many of you young ‘uns reading this column will probably not remember the simpler times in football. When I first started watching football, “diving” was the apocalyptic force threatening to destroy the beautiful game, and David Beckham wearing a sarong was the most sordid story of the decade. But now, we live in a rather […]
By SHARMILA NAIR alltherage@thestar.com.my IT IS hard to believe that the year is coming to an end already. It seems like only yesterday everyone was making resolutions for 2011 (how much do you want to bet that most of us are still carrying that extra 10kg we swore to lose then?). Well, if you’re going […]

By TAN CHOON SAM alltherage@thestar.com.my One word to describe Nick Seah Tze Chyuan is passionate.

It was that passion which drove him to win the grand prize in the inaugural Berjaya Youth Short Film Competition recently. Nick, 24, is […]
I AM 17 years old and recently sat for my SPM. I was in a relationship with H few years back and it only lasted for about three months. I continued loving and caring for him even after he left me without saying anything. My love towards him grew even more when I was no […]
The Malaysian Philharmonic Youth Orchestra knows how to entertain. By TAN CHOON SAM alltherage@thestar.com.my The Malaysian Philharmonic Youth Orchestra (MPYO) was in fine form last Friday, presenting an almost sold-out concert themed Friday Night Is Music Night.
