March: Full of Enjoyment for Seniors!

By

 By Sean Park

Boom. Seniors were gone. March was an exciting month for especially the seniors because they had their senior sneak and mid-semester break. When seniors came back from their sneak, they only had one week of school, and they dove right into their one week of mid-semester break. The mid-semester break was full of a lot of different events.

Despite having a break from school, the seniors were still excited for the mid-semester break. “It was so relaxing, and I was even more excited to hang out more with my friends following my senior sneak. The one week of school felt very different because I was already ready to be done,” said Ally Kim (12).

Despite being restricted in many activities, people were able to enjoy their break in many different ways. One primary way was Easter. Families were able to glorify God and celebrate Jesus rising from the dead; churches had small gatherings. Some of the Dalat Senior boys with some underclassmen had the chance to play against the Penang State U19 Team and Penang Panthers, the best youth soccer club in Penang, last week. They got the win for both games, and these games were highlighted by many Dalat parents.

“Both games were of high quality; the games were fun. We got the win for both games, and I feel delighted; hopefully, we can continue this and get more victories,” said Sumin Lim (12).  This is not the end for them, and they still have more games against them.

T-minus around two months. It is almost time for the seniors to start the next chapter of their lives and leave Dalat. Senior students have different views on graduation, but all of them have one thing in common: they are trying to get the best out of what they can do and leave with no regrets.

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...

One exceptional athlete who was in soccer, basketball, and track, where he broke multiple ACSC and school records for his sprints—the Male Athlete of the Year, Kyle Tang.  The following quote is what Kyle Tang (12) had to say about his achievements: "Winning athlete of the year is an incredible honor, especially with the amount of sacrifices I've spent improving myself ...

“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...
