Christmas in Summer

Jung En Seo

Christmas is only 34 days away. Although it will not be a 'white' Christmas, considering this is Penang, everyone is looking forward to this celebration. CB asking has started this week.

CB, an acronym for Christmas banquet, is bringing out a lot of excitement in everyone. It is an event planned out by StuCo, and it will be held on the 8th of December in the Paradise hotel ballroom. Students are signing up and filling out their forms, as all of the CB requests are due on the 23rd of November. CB is the main student event at Dalat that celebrates Christmas and, therefore, is a meaningful and memorable event.

Girls are looking for perfect dresses for the occasion, within the dress code, of course. Others are searching for a present that they could give to their dates for CB. Curiosity is rising among students on who has been asked for a date. Aidan Frusher (12), requested Mikaela Steinkamp (11) for a date in front of the basketball court after lunch. 

"I was really nervous walking up after lunch right before I asked. Then I signaled to my little sisters holding the signs, and, after that, it's all a blur," Frusher said. 

However, many students still prefer going to CB with a friend or two. “It is my last year of high school, and I want to make good memories with my friends before I leave,” said Harin Park (12).

Students are also excited about the events that will be taking place during CB: D.A.B. Ugly Christmas Sweater. Students can choose a song and up with a choreography. They can win prizes for developing a good dance and having an ugly Christmas sweater.

For a long time, CB has been an event that everybody can enjoy and get comfortable with talking to people around them. Many students, especially the freshmen, are looking forward to it.
