Brookside High Prom Bulletin

Welcome to Brookside High's official blog!

This is THE place to experience student life at our school. Because this isn't just a place for me to express MY point of view - Brookside students and faculty also get a chance to post Tweets, texts and videos of their own.

Think of it as our school's living yearbook. Don't forget to subscribe! This is one club you're going to want to be a part of.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO MISS MOST ABOUT BROOKSIDE AFTER YOU GRADUATE?

  • “Everything! I love it here so much. The classes, the people, the teachers, everything. Everything except the second-floor bathrooms in the science building. Those are terrible.”
– Nova Prescott

  • “I don’t know. I kind of feel like I know everything there is to know here. Brookside’s pretty tapped out - all that’s left is crusty old teacher gossip.”
- Ali Gomez

  • “’l’ll miss seeing Mei coming out of Art class on my way to AP History . . . You know, that’s just kind of scratching the surface.”
- Justin Wexler

  • “I’m not about the past. I’m ready to move on, baby.”
- Tyler Barso

  • “I can honestly say I will miss that face Principal Dunnan makes when he’s angry, with the scrunched-up eyebrows and his eyes bugging out. That always makes me smile.”
      Jesse Richter

  • “I’ll miss hanging out with my friends the most. Hopefully we won’t all lose touch in college.”
– Jordan Lundley

  • “Pizza. People say they’ll have pizza at college, but I’m not so sure.”
          – Rolo

So maybe you didn’t have as much luck with the ladies this year as you’d hoped.

No? Just me?

Either way, I’m really looking forward to the future. At college, you can totally re-invent yourself. New people, new places, nobody remembering that time you wet your pants your freshman year, and best of all, nobody with photo evidence of it.

So here’s my advice on how to really step up your game in college and start off on the right foot:

  • On the first day of class, raise your hand to answer every question, even if you don’t know the answer. Then make a joke when the professor calls on you. Your professor will think you’re hilarious.
  • Refer to your new roommate constantly as your “fraternal twin”. Some people might find it cool. Some people might find it creepy. Either way – ice breaker!
  • Take up a new hobby and you’re guaranteed to meet new people! Research the hobby first to make sure they’re the kind of people you want to meet.
  • Treat High School like it was a dress rehearsal. Now it’s time to go on for real.

Brotegés, can you feel the Call of the Wild?  We’re talkin’ summer Locationships at the Beach!  Not just one or two, but more than your smart phone chip can hold.

The sun, sand and surf make the babes feel like they’re in some kind of on-screen teen romance, and you’re the supernatural force that doesn’t have to get all glittery in the sun.  You are Beach Ghost.  The apparition that disappears magically when the going gets too hot and the sunburns feel too real.

First, some ideas on how to meet and greet the ladies.

Get a job at the concession stand.  Every tanning lady gets hungry at some point.  Ask her if she wants an “extra side” of you with that order.  Gets them every time. As a rule of thumb, slip your # on her receipt.

Lunch break?  Take those 30 minutes to stroll the beach with a bottle of deluxe smelling coconut tanning oil.  Not the kind that smells like a dangling car air freshener.  The real kind.  Offer your services.  Every lady has a back.

Not a concession stand kind of guy?  Be a lifeguard!  Not only do you get a prime bird’s eye view of all those pretty towel loungers, you get to learn the fine (and life saving) art of mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Just make sure it’s not your Aunt or a Grandma. Weird!

Don’t know how to surf?  No worries.  Neither did the Hoff.  A wetsuit and surfboard makes you look mysterious in any situation though.

Mr. Steinman’s 3rd period History Class this year might have tried to teach us that the Summer of Love went down in the 1960’s. 

But we say the real Summer of Love is happening 2011.
