Other
than what’s going on for our athletics and other activities, in English class
we started talking about a writing essay called, “Patriot’s Pen.” Which is a contest that our
towns local VFW Hall holding for anyone that wants to get a chance of
winning a reward if they have the best essay. It has to be
written as a persuasive paper. The theme is, “What Would I Tell America’s
Founding Fathers?” Mrs. Troester
had us go to website called wall wisher, where we could post our ideas
for the whole 8th grade to see. It was hard to choose just
one topic because there were so many of them to choose from. I picked
the flag. I picked it because I could tell about what the colors really
stand for, and it's also important to my family. But anyways, today we
finished our essay map and
started our first draft. They have to be at least 5 paragraphs and
between 300-400 words only.

Also,
we got our school got our 2nd Lip Dub done! There were girls dressed as
bumblebees, guys
in suits, science teachers with skeletons, my friends and I with boas,
and much
more dancing to the Gangman Style. Some of the JH basketball girls took
pictures of ourselves on iPad and switched the iPad’s with each other to
make
it look like we had different faces. The video is on YouTube with almost
300 views and it was posted today at 8th period. The Lip Dub that was
made 2 years ago has got over 40,000 views!
Our school has many things going on that get all of us pumped up for the
coming year. The lip dub was a great way to start the fall break off,
and get ready for play-offs. Even though there is so much more going on
in the school, that sums up a just one day at O'Neill JR/SR High School.
