First school newspaper came out. I love that. It makes me feel like I'm a part of something. A community within Summit that is its own family. I loved seeing people carrying a copy around, seeing people reading it, and hearing them talk about it. I loved the way people would ask me if I had seen this article or that, and I would just smile and nod. And humor their enthusiasm, as though I hadn't read through the article with a fine toothed comb in the editing and refining of the paper. It's like that one bundle of paper can draw the whole school together, if only for a few moments.
Alas, it seems a few moments is not enough. Summit played Bend High last night in a football match that we were sure we would win. Unfortunately, when student's egos get away from them, things tend to go wrong. 40-0, not in our favor. But on the bright side, at least that wasn't the Homecoming game. And just as a side-note, no matter what happens, the band always wins.
