Bussin”g” butter Chicken and Smooth Landings

By Moriah Winsor

On Saturday, September 10th, the juniors planned an After-Sneak Dinner for the class of 2023. Being the first major junior-planned event, there was little evidence of what type of evening it would be. The general consensus? The juniors did a fantastic job. The airplane-themed decor and costumed juniors made for a lovely and realistic air travel ambiance. 

Kai Ru Bok (12) said he "felt like it was a real airplane." 

The hyper-realistic 12-winged airplane wasn't the only unique experience of After-Sneak dinner; some seniors faced frightening encounters with the junior class security. Senior Lauren Worten was interrogated by Kathryn Boyd before entering the lounge and said it made her feel "weak." 

Similarly, Haylee Douglas was escorted off the aircraft for inappropriate behaviour and said she "felt [her] honour was broken down, insulted and ripped away." 

Other seniors fell victim to intensive security checks, and many were accused of being part of the terrorist organization ExCom. When asked what made her behave so horrendously, Haylee Douglas claimed the butter chicken made her lose control. It was too bussin', and her body ached for more than she could consume. Many other seniors agreed the butter chicken was top-level, and Lauren Worten even felt inspired enough to make a toast in its honour. 

Overall, the juniors did a fantastic job providing a great meal and a fun time for the seniors’ After-sneak dinner. If anything, their well-planned dinner has made for a good indication of what JSB will be like, and it seems like it will be a night to look forward to. Yay to the juniors, yay to butter chicken, and yay to a smoothly played-out After-Sneak dinner.

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

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...

“I Miss Her” by Nikhil Pillay

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...

This was when people who had joined a Varsity sport would get acknowledgment for all the blood, sweat, and tears they sacrificed to fight for Dalat.  Many amazing athletes got the recognition they deserved.

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 ...
