Last Friday was the K.O.E. Picnic were students with good grades and good attendance go out on the track/ football field for food, games and prizes. It lasted 6th and 7th hour. I went to this picnic and had a good time. The weather was gloomy and cold, it had a light drizzle here and there otherwise there was no rain during the time students were out. There was question if the picnic would go on. Weather throughout the school day before 6th hour was raining cats and dogs. But we got lucky and the show went on. Did you go to the K.O.E. Picnic? Did you enjoy it?

So today was Senior Day, the day the seniors at FHN got to leave campus early today. I believe they left around 10:30. I heard some people saying it wasn't fair. But honestly i think it was definitely fair because they have put in their 4 years who cares if they get to get out early for one day? I think after all the seniors have gone at FHN the least they deserve is getting to leave the school early. What do the rest of you guys think about Senior Day? Let me know.

St. Louis Missouri is not the only place that is getting bombarded with heavy thunder storms, lightning and bad weather. China was hit with a earthquake on the richter scale 7.9 killing more than 18,000 people and still going up. 900 students were swallowed up by the earth while in school. There have been 30 after shocks all of which were 4.0 on the richter scale. Back to the USA Oklahoma was hit with a handful of Tornados that ranged from EF 3 to EF 4 ( the highest it can be is EF 5) The death tool for that is 19 and still going up. Now Missouri has gotten so much rain that we are 10 inches above average. This has been a wierd year for weather. I was in Florida and it got down to 30 degrees the coldest it's been in a hundred years. Some blame global warming. I think not my friends, I think it's just the same old same old, just this year it's worse than most. For more info on weather go to www.ksdk.com or go to www.cnn.com

    Usually the STUCO elections are a huge deal.  Posters and flyers cover the hallways and opponents are fighting for votes to earn their spot.  This year was pretty different though because all of the runners were unopposed andreceived their spots automatically.  Student Council leaders did an amazing job with everything this year so I can't wait to see what these guys have in store for us for next year!

The new Indiana Jones movie is premiering in theaters May 22nd. I don't know what to make of this release. I think that Indiana Jones has been so overused and too many movies have been made for this character. But I saw the trailer for this movie and I might just see it.

Well maybe you all can start a fun competition with on of your teachers. Let me know how you guys feel about the results.



There's the final Shave Off picture. The winner...with the loser! Maybe next time Charlie.

So every sports Rivalry has it's history and how it all began. For Missouri and Kansas it all began in the Civil War Era. With Missouri being a slave state and Kansas being a free state it caused problems big problems. See there was a so called path that ran through Missouri that slaves could go on that would take them to Kansas. So thus starting the Border War, Jayhawkers people who worked in the mines and stuff who chanted ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK while they worked would threaten Missourians if they touched a slave they would be killed. This caused a lot of problems, so eventually Slavery was abolished but there still was the tension between the Kansas people and the Missouri people. So all you Mizzou fans when you say KU sucks do you really mean it? I mean isn't like 3/4 of the Mizzou football team black, wasn't it the Jayhawkers who fought for the black rights? Think about it. I would love your two sense on this! For more info and all the facts about this go to www.americaslibrary.gov/cgi-bin/page.lgi/jb/nation/missouri_1

It's the month of May and only 19 days left of school! Many are going on vacation with family, go to camps, or work full time at work. Band season starts in July and other sports begin practice over the summer also. I know I can't wait for the summer, and I'm also sad that the seniors this year are leaving. It's a time to grow and gain new experiences if your a senior, a student moving up a grade or the new freshmen coming in. Lets all enjoy the time we have this year and don't forget any of it. How do you plan to celebrate the end of the year and have a good summer?

Every year the TASC members put on an assembly for the junior and senior classes the Friday before prom it is to educate the students on the results of drinking and driving. This year I think is by far the best it started out with us in the gym with a speaker who was amazing I think that he got the message though to the kids then we went outside for a mock accident, which I though was amazing. My favorite part I would have to say was the helicopter landing on the school ground. I mean I saw it flying but I never actually though it would land. I hope next years it as cool as this year I really think they got the message though. What was your favorite part? What did you think of it? Do you think it got the message to the students?
