In Your Daughter’s Shoes Night by Sheirra Harris

On the 15 of September parents attended the In your daughter’s shoes night. Where each parent were given a copy of their student schedule and had to go to each of their child’s classes. It was very interesting because parents were very confuse and didn’t have no idea where to go. But their were many students who stuck around for the night to help parents around the school. Every class was about 7 minutes long which mean parents had to get to their next class before they were late. Many parents complain about the number of stairs they had to climb especially if they had to go to Ms. Mary art class on the fourth floor. On another note many parents enjoy this night it was like they were in High School all over again.

Elections

Elections are one of the toughest things that many people go through whether its voting for the president of the USA or the president of the student body. Students who were running for student council were mostly seniors, which is a good thing because this is seniors last year at Tepeyac and they wanted to go out with a bang. So the students gave their speeches at church during Monday morning meeting. After that eveybody went back to school and waited in each class to go to advisory to vote. Students were really confused and didn’t know at all who they were going to vote for, but each student voted for who they believe who be great for each position. Eventually, students were told who won at the end of 6th period some were sad and some were happy. Now Tepeyac new president is Mariana Buzo, Vice President is Taylor Shufford, Treasure is Chante Jones, Secertary is Jazmine Jones.

Big sister and Little sister

Celebrating big sister/little sister, it is an exciting tradition. It’s a time for fun, a time where two classes come together and have a celebration by having a little sister/big sister. It’s a chance for many to get to learn about each other. During this celebration the big sisters(seniors) get to dress their little sisters(freshies) as babies, games are played, food is given, and afterwards seniors are able to take them out. Asking some of the freshies how they feel about the event, many say their excited and some what anxious to finally find out who their big sisters are. Asking the seniors feel about it, they also want to know who they have for a little sister, and many are excited to take their sisters out and getting to dress them up. Many of the seniors want their little sisters know that they can help them or be there for anything that they need. So on September 23rd the seniors will get to finally find out who their little sisters are. And on October 7th will be the actually celebration. Hope the seniors and freshmen enjoy the celebration.

Club Day

Club Day is to take off this Wednesday, and some students are excited and some, not so much. Club Day is every three weeks each Wednesday in which the students, instead of leaving at 12:50, stay until 3:00 p.m in each of the clubs. Club day is an opportunity to interact with some of the girls in another grade or just someone new to add to the “friends list”. There are 10 clubs, among some of them are cooking, forensics, intramural sports, & environmental. Aerial Chambers, a senior, says, “I feel that that Wednesdays should be our day to relax, and where we get to leave early. I think its dumb and unnecessary to be honest”. A lot of students have the same opinion as Aerial does but another senior, Melissa Sepulveda, says she enjoys club day, “Its a chance to hang out with my friends and just have a good time doing whatever activity is given”. Club day happens regardless, so might as well enjoy it and take full advantage of it and have fun!

Book Review: Venomous

This book is basically about a boy trying to deal with his anger that has developed a personality of his own who’s named itself “The Venom”. Since he was young he has had but one friend, other than that he was alone, Until now that is. He’s gotten a girlfriend of his dreams and a group of Friends that adore his all thanks to The Venom. But things ago awry as the Venom changes things up to his own will. Now Lock needs to find a way to figure out a way to clean his partner in crime’s mess. there are also comic strips of Lock and The Venom working side by side as a Gothic and dark super hero like Batman.

Venomous is a really good book that has a lot of teenage hardships that many other teenagers can relate to. I've read this book voluntarily and was amazed by the story and how they add little comics of Lock Vinetti (Main Character) and his anger working side by side as a super hero and how it can be related to his life now.

Venomous is available in almost every library. I got the book from the Chicago Public Library: Toman Branch and it's also available in Amazon for $13.25. This book was published in 2008. It's recent which means that its more easier to relate to the characters and make comparisons from the book to your own life.

So far I do not know anybody who actually read this book, but that's only because I don't know that many people who like to read as much as I do.This book is a great way to see your life from another perspective, most of you can actually relate to Locke and his anger issues because of the fact that we all get angry and they way that the author of this book characterizes Locke's anger into "The Venom" is original and relate-able.


Happy Reading,

Top 3 Box office movies

Going to the movie theater is a fun way to distract yourself, but deciding what movie to see can not always be easy. Students enjoy going to the movies, here are the top three movies that are worth watching Contagion, The Help, and Warrior. The movie Contagion is about a deadly epidemic that is spreading very quickly and the medical community is trying to find a cure.

A review of the movie by Tony Macklin: “Contagion is a clear-eyed vision of a potential, modern horror that shows science in battle. The direction by Steven Soderbergh is deft and sharp. The screenplay by Scott Z. Burns is intelligent and not exploitative.”

The Help is about a women writing a book about the life of house wives but in the helps point of view. A review for The Help by Rebbecca Berry Hill “It's a feel-good, revenge-seeking satire, the kind that makes you want to shout 'go girl!' from the cinema aisle.” Warrior a movie about two brother whom relationship is not close, both are MMA fighters, and will have to settle their differences in the ring. A review for Warrior by Jeff Bayer “'Warrior' makes you cheer, sweat, laugh and in a completely shocking twist, cry just a little bit.” Everyone has their own opinion and taste in movies, and might not find these interesting. There are other movies to also enjoy. So, take a trip to the movie theaters and have a good time.

Monday, April 18, 20011, was their Senior Ditch Day. April 16, 2011 was their prom. May 11, 2011 is their last detention day. As a junior of the school I can honestly say that all of the seniors will be missed. Not just by their little sisters (fresh-women) but also by their families at home, and by their Tepeyac family. It is their time to go but as Juniors of the school we will follow the traditions and be the best Seniors we can be. So goodbye Seniors.!

Old Lady Tea. -Ciera

Selena Gomez Was Seen Hanging Out ALONE With Her EX Nick Jonas!

Selena Gomez was spotted "hanging out" with her ex-boyfriend, Nick Jonas, despite the fact that she is in a relationship with teen heartthrob, Justin Beiber. While Justin may have landed in Israel ahead of his “My World gig” in the country, his girlfriend Selena has been seen with the Jonas Brother star, who she dated back in 2010. Selena had said this: "I try to be a good person and a good friend to people. That’s something that’s very important to me. Nick is a very good friend. He’s a lovely guy, we’re good friends and I enjoy his company!”

We wonder what Justin Bieber would say about this! Selena and Nick's meeting has filled up reports that she has decided to "cool things" with Justin after this whole incident.

you can call her principal noonan

After the cancellation of our regular Monday morning meeting, Tuesday morning we all gathered in the church for the week's announcements. This week was different, there were way more announcements than usual. The worst announcement of them all - Mrs.Thompson will no longer be principal after this year. The church erupted with chatter, some saying they hoped that Ingram would be principal. That dream was soon shattered by Thompson saying, that Ingram wanted to stay in her position as vice Principal. The few seconds of speculation ended when she announced that our new principal will be Ms. Noonan. Good luck with that.
