The school year continues to fly by, and we’re already on to second semester. Many of us in our psych-bio-stats
groups presented successfully at the showcase recently, as every club and
organization shared what they have been working on. While finishing our poster
for that night, Dale Winter and I met Mr. Wick’s daughter for the first time,
who found it hilarious to throw balls of aluminum foil at us while we
worked. As Terry would put it, “some
people’s children…”. Overall the night was a great experience; we spoke with
the incoming freshmen and their enthusiastic parents who wanted to know all
about incentives and test performance.
I believe I have finally found a
book in my AP lit class that I can easily read and understand. The Stranger by Albert Camus is able to
properly ignore all irrelevant information that normal novels seem to
accentuate, creating a simple read that gets to the point. As a person that
doesn’t really enjoy the fluff of normal books, this has been a great
experience. I would recommend it to anyone who spends more time playing
video games than studying to claim that you actually read a book. Also it has
some good morals or something. If the last book that you remember fully reading
is Animal Farm your freshmen year (I speak from experience), check it out.
College preparations continue to be
the highlight of this year, as my roommate and I begin to divide up the
appliances we will need to bring. While we haven’t fully decided who is
bringing what, it is very obvious that we will have the most technologically
advanced room on the campus. With scholarship applications and deadlines to
meet, seniors have been continuously bombarded with new tasks to work on. As
senioritis takes its hold on the school population, we continue to push through
our classes and try to enjoy the time we have left.
