Pep-Per Rally

Today I witnessed yet another attempt of pep evoking mania by the Active Student Body. Throughout the presentation I could not help but notice a repetition of the same formula used to cook up these pep rallies. The previous two classes did the same music plus games plus candy equals a pep concoction.I don't want to put too much emphasis on this sole pep rally, but it could serve as a precursor of...

The Plight Of A Senior

They always told me it was not going to be easy, but they sure didn't tell me it was going to be this frustrating. I have official been a senior for about three weeks and I have completely gone bonkers. As of now I have about a million thoughts a second being process by a brain that has been on stand by for at least two whole months. My computer has become my only friend; working with me for countless...

First 5 Days

This first week has been a little mundane to tell the truth, but it was alright I guess. I got to see my friends again and it was pretty exciting to first step into school as a senior.
