Articles
Olive Branch
By: Emily Gao (Peacemaker)
Hey Tiff,
I wanted to write to
you about that dungeon article. Yeah. You know...that one.
My immediate reaction
to Dan's article was to go and search for you.... And I creepily did by looking
for you through the most recent yearbook. But alas, I couldn't find you. I
believe you’re a new freshmen. You know, for a second I had a moment of
hysteria where I thought you didn't exist....but woohoo, you do! Anyway
onward with my point—I'm sorry about the way Dan responded to your article.
If Ryden Nelson
(he was a senior at the time I was your age) wrote to me like that I would have
wanted to stick my head into the earth ostrich-style. I'm truly sorry
you had to face that
sort of treatment from the DU and hopefully that doesn't downgrade your opinion
of the publication too much. I promise that for the most part we are made up of
really kind, quirky upperclassmen who really like to write and attempt to be
funny.
Before I close, I'd
like to also commend you on your valor. You've got balls bro. I know people even
in my grade, seniors too who are scared of submitting to the DU. It always
surprises me when you realize how many people truly do read what we put out.
Powerful stuff really. I'm going to assume that you didn't know how Dan was a part of the dungeon before you sent
that in. Even so, you're still brave. If you did know those things then my god
you are even more brave than I expected. Right on bro. It takes guts to
do what you did.
I hope I can finally
see you in person sometime soon! Sorry I had to use this rather impersonal
method of communication. Anywho, I hope you're okay and please do not be scared
of submitting in the future. I stand by my belief that the DU is a
phenomenal mean of communication and witty expression plus, as we all know, is
read more than the Tower (;D). Totally not just saying that because I'm a
loyal staff member....heh.
PLEASE say hi to me in
the hallways! I'd love to give you a hug. If you have any further comments or
questions feel free to email the DU back. Or write another article, eh?
Yours,
Em
The
Perks of Being Short
By: Alexandra Tsai (Fun-sized Bishop’s
Student)
Every
day, I find myself staring with a longing look in my eyes as my brother reaches
to grab a jar of peanut butter conveniently located on the pantry’s top shelf.
Although being “vertically challenged” has put me through a myriad of
difficulties (such as being used as an armrest), I have discovered that being
short is actually a wonderful blessing.
As a short
person…
1.
You can save money by shopping in the children’s clothing
aisle.
2.
Your friends will be impressed by your limbo and hide and
seek skills.
3.
The chronic problems of blankets being too short to cover
your whole body and your feet hanging over the edge of a bed are nonexistent.
4.
Your legroom on airplanes is absolutely superb.
And at
Bishop’s, being short definitely has its advantages.
5.
You will have guaranteed admission into the Cute Things
Club.
6.
When taking class pictures, you will most likely be
positioned front and center, allowing you to be eternally remembered when
classmates look at yearbook photos 20 years into the future.
7.
Because of some strange optical illusion, your uniform
skirt will always seem longer than it actually is, which will prevent the
dreaded UV.
8.
When sitting in all-school assemblies during a tiring week, you can
sometimes take advantage of the taller students sitting in front of you and
hide behind them to inconspicuously catch some Zs.
9.
You will be able to maneuver around congested areas such as the
cafeteria tent, dodging students and teachers carrying plates of hot lunch.
10.
Although you may not look
intimidating, like the small but deadly piranha you can act fast and strike
quickly – on the field, in the pool, or on the court.
Enjoy the perks… until you are mistaken for a
middle schooler!
