One Week Down, So Many To Go

Student Stampede

Yes, The great institute of learning named Firebaugh High School has had it's first week of active school. Freshmen tread the new environment that will be their school for three years; Sophomores still don't know what to do; Juniors prepare to be the top dogs next year, and finally the people who matter; The Seniors are preparing for a headache filled year.

The school has physically not changed much. The buildings and rooms are all the same, but they are clean. Which is one of the few things I expected from the school coming back. However one new physical aspect of the school is the motivational quotes scattered and mostly concentrated in the entranced of the school.

 As you can see some of these quotes are a bit childish, but all in good fun. The first week has been pleasant; although getting use to late start Wednesdays will be hard. A new motivation program was unveiled, although a similar program was reveled last year and it was a complete failure. Cool merit buttons are being given away. And we finally have scanners for our IDs for lunch; Yessssss.

So lets keep this up yeah!!!!

First Week Of New School Year

Good first week of school. Another year of school another year to learn. School may seem as a prison, as a escape, or just plain boring. But lets us see the objectives. School was establish to bring an vast array of knowledge in one convenient location. Basically, it's just the ideal way to get smarter. Then why is it that people tend to have a sense of resistance towards education. Is the fault of students, the teachers, or maybe the society as a whole.
    
Therefore, we as students must fight against our own feel for resistance and not just listen to the teachers but go beyond that and learn from different sources and perspective. We have to remember that our future is in our hands. A good education is vital for our possibility to succeed. Take advantage of all the resources at school:

1. Teachers
2. Computers
3. Lab
4. Textbooks
5. Novels
6. Food
7. Sports

And best of all they are offered to you for free.
So as this year begins lets try our best to be our best and truly strive for a better education.

Last Post As An Eleventh Grader

Cool Falcon

 I know I did a similar post earlier in the month, but I don't care I'm going to do this post anyways; rules are for fools. No need to worry though I am going to say new more relevant things this time around. Instead of foreshadowing my possible future as a senior; I will reflect upon my majestic venture as a junior at Marco Antonio Firebaugh High School.

Severus Snape

A True Hero

Snape (from The Harry Potter movies) is made out to be one of the villains in the movies, but he is a hero. Once I saw the first six movies, I was thinking that he is only trying to get back at Harry for what his dad did to him in the past, but it was a complete misunderstanding. He was protecting Harry since he was a baby, when Harry's parents were being targeted by Voldwmort no one wanted to help them, but Snape tried to help. He asked Dumbledore to help them, but he said no as well. Even though Harry's dad bullied Snape and married the girl that Snape loved, he still tried to save him and his wife. 

In one scene in the last movie, Snape was talking to Dumbledore in the past (when Harry was a baby) and Dumbledore said that one day Harry will have to die for the greater good and this infuriated Snape. He said "So your just raising him to be a slaughtered pig." When Snape said that I was thinking that he is the true hero of the whole series because he fights for Harry safety. I have never seen a character like this in any movie and was shocked when I saw Snape's past. I have misjudged him and all the other characters I thought to be heroes.

When I saw Dumbledore save Harry a couple times I thought that he was the Hero, but that was all just an illusion because he planed to kill Harry later on. Harry was even shocked to find out what Snape has done for him his whole life. Snape deserves the title of a True Hero for the things he has done.

Oh School

Today I returned to school; no not for actual learning purposes, but for an orientation. This orientation is some sort of tradition for the school because we do it every year and they say the exact same thing every year. I saw some old faces that I would have preferred to have seen later. I received my I.D.( the picture for it was awesome), had a very ORAL orientation, and received my textbooks. Yes I know very exciting stuff, but I survived. This fun-filled day started with arriving to school and heading straight to the gym.

So instead I am just going to enjoy this moment; It's a good day to be a Mexican. All I want to say to the national team is thank you and you guys have just made history; enjoy it fellas.
