Group S: Sadly this is my last blog :[

The top five best things to ever happen in Online Publishing:

1.     I’m sure we all heard this one before. It happened last year in Online Publishing, but it never gets old. Mr. Currin walked in and yelled “Best Class Ever!” like he usually does, but this time his spit went crazy and hit Amber Breyer in the eye. Amber’s eye twitched closed because of Mr. Currin’s spit hit her right in the pupil. That was hilarious and I will always remember that.

2.    This one happened too fast to even understand why it happened in the first place. I wasn’t sure if Austin Hopcia was getting up to leave or getting up to talk to Mr. Currin, but his leg got caught between chairs and fell face first into the carpet. It’s quite embarrassing when people get hurt in front of others; mainly because I will literally laugh my butt off at you. I find pain quite hilarious. I broke my ankle once and laughed. I’m awesome like that.

3.    Another moment that I will never forget is when Mr. Currin had glitter on his upper lip. If it wasn’t for Joe White pointing it out, I wouldn’t have noticed it. I asked him if he just got done partying with Ke$ha. He didn’t even deny it, so clearly he was. It’s moments like that when I realized that this class is pretty legit.

4.    This moment was between Shannon Purdy and I. It was for one of our blogs. I think it was a choice one and I decided to be a creep and write about the love I had for Shannon. I wrote how I creeped on her and how I’m going to spend my life with her and our cat Creamsicle. Seriously though, I’m really getting an orange and white cat and naming him/her Creamsicle.

5.    The final best moment that has ever happened to me is that fact that every loves the cupcakes I make! I don’t know why they are so special. I mean, you can go to the store yourself and make them. I think it’s just because I make them with love. That’s the secret ingredient. ;]  

Group S: Literally, The Best Class Ever!

I’m very glad about my decision to take Online Publishing this year. I mean, I’ve taken it for two years now. That hardest part is saying good-bye. Mr. Currin makes that class quite entertaining. If he wasn’t the teacher, then I don’t think I would have continued to take it this year. I love writing and all, but you need someone in the group to make it worth-while and Mr. Currin was that guy. He kept the “best class ever” thing going from last year. He made us sit wherever we wanted as long as if we worked and didn’t joke around the whole time. We’re able to have fun and in some side classes that we have to take we aren’t able to do that. Some teachers are too strict and we have to be quiet all the time, but in Online Publishing I don’t think there is ever a dull or quiet moment. I’ve made some new friends. I even started talking more to the kids in my senior class. I have more friends outside of my senior class than in it. Anyways, I feel myself change every month that I’m in this class. I wrote about all of that in my final article. I’m definitely happy at the fact that I always end my day with this class. Last year I did and this year I did. Sometimes I have those moments where the block feels like it literally drags on, but I’d rather be here than in any other class. Hopefully students keep taking this class because it sure is worth it. You do have moments where you get frustrated because you don’t know what to write about, or the blogs are kind of stupid, but you can’t help but wonder what your life would be like if you never took Online Publishing.   

Group S: Merp :[

I love Online Publishing, and I don’t want to change much about it. I just think we should have more freedom when it comes to writing articles. I mean, it’s awesome to always write about what’s going on in Alden, but sometimes I think people don’t read The Bulldog because it’s a tad boring. How much goes on in Alden, really? I think it would be better if maybe next year the students could write one article one week about Alden and then the next article can be something unrelated to Alden. That could always help The Bulldog get more readers because it’ll be entertaining. I also think we should be able to sit where we want to. I hate the fact that we have permanent seats. I hate where Mr. Currin sat me also; right in the corner, where I have a butt in my face every time Austin Hopcia needs to walk by. I’m sure like every regular human being, they don’t like butts in their face. I would like a different spot, thank you very much. For future times, you should have more office parties. It’s a good way of all the students to get together and eat food. Food is legit. So, I really don’t know what else to say. Maybe when it gets warmer out, Mr. Currin can get the laptops and go outside for a class. I mean, if someone is having a rough time coming up with something to write about, maybe something outside with spark something within them. Mr. Currin should also tell Mr. Turton to change the way the computers are positioned. I don’t like having my back to people. I already have back problems, so turning around every five seconds for Mr. Currin when he talks, kills me. I had fun though. This will always be my favorite class.
