Teacher vs Student Volleyball game


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.

No more Selfie's

Stop the Selfie Madness

Column by Adrianne B


#Selfie. It's everywhere. It's on Instagram, twitter, all those social media websites. Everyone does it, but nobody knows where it came from. It could have come from a crazy dude in a Santa hat lip-synching to Katy Perry, we don't know! And you, reading this, don't tell me you never took a selfie before! We all know you have. Tell me you have NEVER walked somewhere, saw your reflection, and checked yourself out than took a selfie? That’s what I thought. I bet you just scrolled through all your photos which consisted of… hmmm… I don’t know a million selfies? Now I’m not saying selfies are terrible, it’s just you can’t take them every three minutes!  You could be in New Zealand for all I know. So, let’s get to the point here. Do. Not. Take. Too. Many. Selfies.
Did you notice how I paused after each word there? Pretty cool huh? Yeah? No? Okay. So instead of selfies, do something else like: go roller-skating in the Grand Canyon, ride a Llama into the sunset, bathe in a tub full of oranges. Wait, don’t do the last one, it’s illegal. Anyways I hope I either made you laugh or realize how many selfies you take. Goodbye child. Wait that sounds creepy, I’ll just go for now. Bye!!
