Leaving their Lasting Impact on DALAT

By Anonymous
On May 21, 2018, from 7 o’clock to 8 o’clock, the Senior Class of 2018 played their prank on the school by spray-painting the old high school building. This building is going to be torn down this Sunday, so the students were allowed to spray-paint the windows, floors, ceilings, and doors.

“I spray-painted a panda unicorn on the outside of Mrs. Debbie Chinn’s classroom, and I also spray-painted chicken breast. I like chicken breast because makes it makes me strong and has emotional value,” said Aidan Frusher (12).

From inside jokes to elaborate symbols, there was not a single wall left untouched by spray-paint. Shannen Leong (12) spray-painted a beautiful rose, a cat, and a small stitch on the floor. Jesse Lohman (12) spent the majority of the night spray-painting the Spongebob Squarepants outside of the World History classroom.

While many of the students spray-painted their names on the walls, Mr. Larry Chinn spray-painted “Juniors rock” across from the Junior lockers. To advertise for the upcoming Senior Chapel event, Hyun Ji Kim (12) and Leong spray-painted “Come to Senior Chapel” on the floor outside of the Main Office.

Aaron Tan (12) and Richard Beak (12) spray-painted an outline of their bodies on the floor and left their initials within it. Asher Kim (12), Yigal Ang (12) and Beak watched as Simon Jeong (12) spray-painted a Korean flag on the floor outside of Miss Emily Grad’s classroom.

Sophia Ong (12) spray-painted an outline of the character Biggie Cheese from Barnyard. Jamie Ooi’s name and Instagram were spray-painted many times on the floor and walls of the old high school. “I found it funny that my sister became such a big meme amongst the seniors,” said Jerald Ooi (12).

At the end of their time, the seniors all gathered around a big “Class of 2018” design spray-painted by Kayla Ronning (12), Grace Chang (12), and Melynn Kendrick (12). The seniors then went home excited to see the reactions of the underclassmen the next day.

DINGBAT DALAT STUDENT SPENDS PRECIOUS TIME CONJURING UP SELF-REFERENTIAL SENIOR SCRIBBLE RATHER THAN GATHERING LEGITIMATE WORK

By Anonymous
Yusoof Monawvil PENANG, MA - As the deadline drew near and the stars aligned in the night sky above the majestic waters of the Strait of Malacca, one particular Dalat student—Yusoof Monawvil (12), despite a plethora of school events to select and report on—opted instead to spend a remarkably well-wasted 24 minutes staring at a blank Google Docs page, fruitlessly drawing up and shooting down brainstormed ideas.  In a moment of sheer and undeniable epiphany, Monawvil deemed it only fitting to self-referentially satirize his own ingrained incompetence and dingbattery. Commenting on the flash of insight, Monawvil quoted himself, saying: “It all just kinda made sense. I went on DISCourse to look at the little rubric thing Ms. Grad and Mr. Hieber posted, and I checked if I was following all of the guidelines... And I technically am/was; [N]ot like there’s any specific direktive [sic] prohibiting self-quoting.”  In a turn of events, Monawvil did come to find his self-quoting en...

"Spikeball, Swimming, and Sickness: The Remnants of Senior Sneak" by Ee Rynn Ong

By
“Guys, I think we’re here,” said Jonathan Ooi (12) as he peeked out of the lorry to catch the first glimpse of our Senior Sneak location. This year’s Senior Sneak was held in Nomad Adventure, Gopeng, and the organizers planned many activities for the Class of 2026, ranging from traditional games like congkak and batu seremban to adrenaline-pumping ropes courses and whitewater rafting. These scheduled activities proved to be some of the best highlights of the trip, but top of that, the seniors were also given some daily free time to chat, explore, and relax. Josh Stevens (12) had come prepared for this with two spikeball nets, which immediately attracted attention from people eager to spend time in the outdoor sun. The next five days saw spikeball veterans and newcomers alike, spending their precious one and a half hours daily around the unassuming circular net, smashing the yellow ball in hopes of a victory.  Caleb Evans (12) was one of the newbies to spikeball, learning how the g...

“I Miss Her” by Nikhil Pillay

By
While most people had a fun week for mid-semester break, whether it was spent with family, or with friends on impact trips, no one had a more emotionally confusing week than Judson Kenneth Robert Nosker (12).  In the light of recent events, Judson, despite all odds, had gotten in a relationship with one of his classmates, and as the break started, he had started to spend a lot of time with her. While with her, he started to experience a new level of joy and completeness that he had never felt before. In the words of Judson Nosker, “The first half of the break was good, but the rest of it was horrible.”  The reason for such a quote and the roller coaster of emotion was because half way through the break, disaster had struck. Judson’s girlfriend had gone on a trip with her family to Thailand, leaving Judson all alone. For the rest of the week, Judson was in a state of longing for her presence.  His friends have reported numerous occasions when Judson would be sitting with t...
