Senior and Sophomore Bonding

By

By Sammy Jung

Last Friday the Seniors set up a party to bond with the sophomores at the Dalat campus. The senior ExCom came up with this idea in order for seniors and sophomores to bond and also get to know each other as well. The party consisted of dodgeball, color wars, and many more activities and fun. This was truly a night to remember and for both classes and with that came the opportunity to get to know each other better as well.

They played knockout and charades first where the classes were able to bond through competing but also working together as a team. 

After knockout and charades, the two classes went into the main gym and played dodgeball. They played free for all dodgeball first where it was every man for themselves, but there were alliances that consisted of three groups which were the senior boys, sophomore boys, and girls. The entire gym was chaotic and loud with students running around and throwing dodgeballs at each other. After the free for all dodgeball the two classes played normal dodgeball with just two teams going against each other. First it was the seniors against the sophomores where the game ended in a draw. Then it went onto girls against the boys where the boys won. Finally, the last game was against two teams that were mixed, consisting of both classes. The game had to include a doctor and a general where the doctor was able to revive the players while if the general got out it meant that the team immediately lost. 

After dodgeball the students went out to enjoy ice cream and drinks. There the students were able to bond with each other through talking and mingling with each other. 

Finally, the last part of the night was the most chaotic and fun, as Drew Worten said: “It was a fun time bonding with the sophomores by throwing color at their faces.” At first the sophomores were forced to sit in a circle and the seniors surrounded them and threw colors at them which gave the seniors a head start, but after that the entire place was chaotic with students just throwing colors at each other no matter what class they were in. This caused students from both classes to look like clowns and jesters. 

All in all, the sophomore and senior party was an unforgettable night with many students from both classes bonding together while also having a lot of fun and excitement. Through this event students from both the senior and sophomore class were able to bond and get to know each other better. This event was a true blessing for both classes and students from both classes hope to this again one 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

“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...
