LAST MEMORY OF MY SENIOR YEAR!

Wow! Time has surely gone by so fast. Just yesterday I can recall myself walking through the halls of Piper as a little Freshman. Now I'm a Senior and off to bigger and better things. One of my last memories would have to be the "Prom" I attended. Me and my friends decided not to go to the real prom, but instead make one of our own. We all decided to go to a Big Chutney Concert in the park. We didn't have to worry about spending hundreds of dollars on fancy dresses, crazy up-dos, new shoes and acrylic nails. We were able to spend our money wisely and at a place where we enjoyed the music and knew almost everyone there. After the concert we all went clubbing and I got to shake hands with one of my favorite Trinidadian artists, Ravi B! It was surely a night to remember! The things we did that night were unbelieveable, but we made the best out of everything and it's an event I will never ever forget!! CLASS OF '09!!!

WHERE IN THE WORLD...?

I would love to go back home to Guyana! I was born in Gerorgetown, Guyana, but left when I was only eight months old and never went back. Guyana is located in South America, right between Suriname and Venzuela. I've never been able to explore my home country and to do so would be a dream. I would finally be able to say that I lived life like how they did back home. In Guyana, there are many farms and each family usually has a cows, chickens and many other animals to tend to. It would be cool to actually take part in doing those things. Also, I could go and visit the gold and diamond fields as well as Katieur Falls. There would be so much to do and so much to explore if I ever get the chance to go back home!

FIRST DAY OF FRESHMEN YEAR

The first day of freshman year was mortifying! I was scared out of my mind to go a school where I heard there was about 3000 students attending it. My middle school teachers would tell me that Piper High was like a mini city. Back then I was very shy and barely spoke to anyone. So the thought of being amongst so many students wasn't very pleasing. Before school started me and my mom came to Piper's Freshman Orientation to get acquainted with the school. I found out where my class was and went to go find it that same day, so when the first day rolls around I wouldn't be scrambling to find it. Finally, the first day comes around and I get dressed in my new clothes and shoes wanting to look good and try to fit in. As soon as my mom dropped me, I went straight to my class and just waited for the bell to ring. To my surprise, no one took me as a freshman. A majority of the students thought I was a senior! The first day was a good one. I found all my classes, got to know my teachers and even made a new friend. But as I look back, I've seen how much I've grown and matured and will never have to relive that day again. Well, at least until I get to college!

MY FIRST DAY OF KINDERGARTEN

The first day of Kindergarten was horrific. The day before I was all excited hearing about all the fun I would have in school and all the friends I would make. My cousins made it seem like the best place in the world. When my mom and I arrived at school the next day and walked me to the classroom I began to ball!! I don't think I ever cried that much before! I cried and cried and cried. The staff, plus my mom tried there best to keep me calm and quiet, but no I was a rebellious little girl and I continued on with my tantrum. I remember I kept telling my mom that I don't want to stay here and that I want to go home. But eventually she had to leave and I was all alone with all these other kids and adults. It took me quite some time before I stopped crying and calmed myself down. When I did I was finally able to get used to the idea of school and ended up having a pretty good first day =)

INTERESTING NEWS: 7 HOSPITALIZED AFTER OFFICE FRIDGE CLEAN UP

In San Jose, California an office worker was cleaning out a fridge full of rotten food. With all the food combined, the smell became so intoxicating that seven co-workers had to be sent to the hospital. Many others became ill. Firefighters had to evacuate the AT&T building and a hazmat team was called in. Crews found an unplugged refrigerator packed with old moldy food.
According to authorities, an office worker decided to clean out the fridge and placed all the food in a conference room. He used two highly smelling chemicals to scrub the fridge down. The mixture of the old food and disinfectants caused about 28 people to need treatment for nausea and vomiting. Authorities even say that the woman cleaning out the fridge couldn't smell a thing, she had allergies.
