Death by Tacos, O21, OR Magcon Boys

Death by Tacos, O21, OR Magcon Boys
Column by Adrianna
Picture by Kris
Part 1
           
Hey people who still listen to what I have to say even though I’m a freaking idiot…. *awkward silence*. Anywho! (Leans on chair attempting to be cool, but falls). I’m not here to rant about what’s annoying me. Awh don’t be sad! I’ll Probably do one next week. C’mon I know you’re not that grumpy. Smile! Smile like I pushed you into a taco filled volcano. That’s right, the best way to die, death by tacos. OK, let’s not talk about taco peasants taking over the world, but how O21 and Magcon boys are. Yes I just went there. First of all, who doesn’t die whenever Shawn Mendes or Jack sing!!!! Better yet, together. Like was I the only one who died a little when they posted that short Arianna Grande cover on Vine? I watch that video everyday, it’s not creepy. Nash Grier. Two words. His eyes. They are just *cries* perfect! And the way he acts with his little sister Skylynn is adorable. Tell me, when you watch them together that you don’t want him to be your brother… exactly. Now let’s just talk about Cameron Dallas and Matthew Espinosa. Literally 90% of the female population die over them. And I mean die as in they will literally try, key word try to jump onto a ship they’re on to get a selfie… A SELFIE…. However, they are both amazing individuals, their personalities literally make someone’s day. Hayes Grier and Taylor Caniff… I just can’t. OK, I literally like sound like Jack, you know thatsojack aka my favorite youtuber. I mean who doesn’t think it’s extremely cute when Taylor wears his bandana and if you don’t then go away. And when Hayes smiles, I die a little insid .eIt’s official, the Magcon boys captured my heart, locked it up, took the key and dropped into the--- OK, what am I saying. Anyways if you liked this, get ready to be invaded by O2l madness.
Part 2
Hello my people. So, you probably ready part one and decided and got a little taste of my weird and mental mind that you came back for more! That or you’re worried for my mental health. Anyways, you know about my obsession with the Magcon boys now I’m here to talk about my long timed, never can be cured obsession with O21. I SWEAR I’M LITERALLY OBSESSED WITH SO MANY THINGS. I THINK IT’S UNHEALTHY FOR MY WELL-BEING…EH. Anywhoo, let’s talk about my all time, chubby cheeked, penny board loving, favorite O21 member JC Caylen. He is one of the things I look forward to everyday his videos make me laugh so much that my brother came up to me to see if I was OK.  What about Connor’s little sound effects and oises he makes, it’s so adorable, creative and funny I literally can neverrr stop smiling or laughing while watching any of the videos. And Sam doesn’t know how much he inspires girls. When O21 hit one million Twitter subscribers, I screamed outside my house and cried in the street for like 10 minutes. OK, that’s all for now byee!!

After Romeo performed to educate students about bullying at TRP


By Ralph and Elizabeth:
Their vocals were entertaining. The girls were screaming for the. Their speech on bullying gave ideas to students to stop bullying, but it didn't really stop bullying. Their songs were catchy. If they were to come back to our school, we would want a more persuasive speech about how to stop bullying and more songs.

Frozen Movie Review



By Ralph, Kaylen and Elizabeth

Frozen is  a movie by Disney Pixar. It's about how two sister's face different hardships. The movie tells a great moral about siblings and that we should enjoy the time we have with our families because it's limited. The movie is funny, with lots of awesome music and funny characters.The song, "Let it go,'' was our favorite. This movie had more feeling compared to other Disney Pixar Animations.  We give the movie 4.5/5 Trojans because it's a good movie to see with your family.

The Conjuring Movie Review

The Conjuring Movie Review
By Zakk, Maureen and Marielle
Scariest part
Zakk’s Opinion-Overall the whole movie was pretty scary and interesting
Maureen’s Opinion-When the doll appears in the begging of the movie.
Marielle’s Opinion- When Carolyn was trying to stab Christine and attempted to kill April.
A good scary movie has great screams and scary music. We give this movie 4.5 out of 5 Trojans. This movie had excellent scary music and the details were realistic. If you’re going to watch the movie, don’t watch it alone because this is one scary movie.

 

Washington D.C. Trip 2014



Washington D.C. Trip 2014
by Alexia and Catherine
    This year, 8th grade students have the opportunity to go on an educational and historical trip to Washington D.C. Going on this trip can give children look at our country’s history and how our country was developed. Children can also get social studies credit for high school. As well as to being educational, the trip is really fun and you get to meet people from different parts of the U.S. The price may seem high at a little over $2,000, but it includes your child’s airfare, hotel, buses, admissions to museums, food, etc. Since the trip is during spring break, your kids wouldn’t miss school. Overall, this would be a great experience for your child.

Teacher vs. Student Volleyball Game
By Alexxi and Cathernie

In the Students VS Teacher Volleyball Rally, which took place on December 20, 2013, the students were the victors. It was a tough game containing three sets. The teachers won the first set, but the second set was won by the students. The third set was a tie-breaker, but surprisingly, the students came out with a win. The students finally beat the teachers for the first time in a while. We can’t wait for the next rally, which is the Students VS Teachers Basketball Rally.
