GINA PARDI - CLASS OF 2016 The month of May is a busy yet exciting one. School is winding down, the seniors are in their last few weeks of high school, and the warmer weather is slowly, but steadily, emerging. Overall, the mentality of students is transitioning from one centered on school and studying to one more focused on summer. However, if you are a junior at Falmouth High School, the month of May means testing, testing and more testing. Constant, various testing is preventing juniors from experiencing the lackadaisical, relaxed state of mind most students feel towards the end of the school year. MAX BRAUTIGAM - CLASS OF 2016 Excluding any unpredictable disaster that demands coverage, this will be the most important article I will ever write. This piece covers an idea integral to everyday life. It’s about how to live life happily and productively. It’s about how to overcome challenges that feel impossible. It’s about how to raise any children you may someday have. It’s about how to teach, it’s about how to learn, and it’s about how to become a better person. My only goal is to convey information I have learned as clearly and effectively as possible. ISABEL WOLFE - CLASS OF 2015 Do you want to ace your exams? Impress your teachers? Enter second semester with a clean slate? Of course you do! Fortunately, the traditional, tedious method of preparing for exams by studying has been replaced by a more innovative approach. Now, rather than being “stressed for success,” you only need to be “dressed for success”. New findings suggest that imitating a teacher’s style as you take their exam practically guarantees you an A, for several reasons. TANNER LESLIE - CLASS OF 2015 Let’s not be dramatic. However, let’s take a real step back and look at the times we’ve had as a class. From shenanigans in the late Maze-Craze, getting blasted with water at the fourth grade farewell, last day middle school cookouts, trips to Boston and Quebec and D.C., and Fall Fest with its charming madness (pre-2014), to today, we’ve done a lot together. No, I’m not about to get all sappy, but kids, we’ve grown up side by side, and now we near the end of that sweet adolescent bliss. BLAIR LINDBERG - CLASS OF 2016 When you have the flu, do you vomit on your friends? Or when you’re at a party--most likely you aim for an open space, rather than your best buds lap; so why do we regularly emotionally vomit on our friends? By the metaphor of vomit, I mean poisoning other peoples’ vibe--you’re mentally vomiting on your buddies by being a constant Debbie Downer. |
