Hope all is well!
Sitting in lunch/journalism.. and kind of bored.
So I read this book called Chasing Brooklyn, it was AMAZING. And, in it this girl (Brooklyn) writes letters in a notebook to her boyfriend who died, and I kind of took the idea, and spun it. I decided Im going to use a blank notebook I have to write letters that will never be sent or seen by other people, whether they're to no one, "1.15" a.k.a. my crush from freshman year that I can't seem to push out of my head and my heart, or anyone else, I just think it's a cool idea. I've tried journaling and it just wasn't for me, but I really like this letter thing. Most of them so far are to 1.15, but what can I say, I can't get him out of my head.
February VACATION is this week coming up, so today is the last day before I'm out of here!!! Unfortunately, I have a Pre-Calculus test today. Actually, he's making our whole class retake the test we took MONDAY and TUESDAY.. so annoying, but hey, at least I'll get a better grade. It doesn't feel like vacation should be this close. I don't know why, but for some reason it feels like we just got back from a vacation. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. I just sometimes wish we had march and may vacation rather than February and April. It would just be better in my mind for some reason.
[rant]Beverly High School's mascot is the Panther. We are all very proud of being the Panthers. We LOVE it. And, we are getting a new high school next year. In the main lobby they want to put a 5 to 10 foot emblem. Now, you'd think they would put a panther paw or head, right? WRONG. Our superintendent wants to put a picture of The Hannah. A boat. One of the first in the US Navy. Now forgive me, but that has nothing to do with the high school. He also said, he didn't want a panther because that only represented athletic students. NOT TRUE. MYTH. The Marching Band plays at every single game, and consider themselves panthers. The Music department this year, ordered sweatshirts with a music note turned into a paw. EVERY ONE IN OUR SCHOOL IS A PROUD PANTHER. He said that it doesn't incorporate us, yet he never asked us. On top of that he hired an artist from CALIFORNIA to draw it up, when we live in Beverly, home to Montserrat, one of the best art schools in the nation. HELLO, it's called supporting a local artist!! A few students started a petition, and we have hundreds of signatures from students and teachers saying we want something panther related or nothing at all. If we don't get a panther paw or head we'd rather have the 36 THOUSAND dollars go to bettering the education of students. [/rant]
that's what's new here.
