Gooseberry High

It is a good thing that I am not Head Boy, because if I were, and if I ever found out who said some of the things written on the anonymous post, I would have you in detention until I graduate. Vector would need to take my badge from me to stop the endless parade of punishment.

[Warded to Ravi, Wes, Sun-mi, Ty, Levi, Reece, and Cecil.]

I was supposed to keep this a secret until Ricardo could tell two of you in particular... but I do not care. Ravi, Levi, you are going to be invited to the wedding by Ric. Ty, Wes, I am inviting you as my two guests. Sun-mi, you are being invited as a family friend. Reece... you are coming for obvious reasons, and the following rules don't necessarily apply to you.

• You may each invite a date. Except you, Cecil. You are the date. I am making assumptions by including you without asking anyone, and none of you will stop me.
• It will take place over spring break (March 11th through the 19th) but the wedding ceremony/reception/event will take place the 16th though the 18th. You only need to show up for those dates.
• You may come earlier or stay that final night if you like, but it will just be me, doing what I normally do. Except this time, it will be in Mexico and it won't work when I try to remove points. [...] I might take you sightseeing. But I can't take you clubbing or partying. I would get in trouble.
• Travel, food, and accommodations will be provided. There will be an open bar, and no one is going to ID you.
• Suits or dresses will be provided as well, if you are afraid you don't have something to wear.
• There will be paparazzi. I am not famous, but my family is. They will still take photos.
• Everyone will be speaking primarily Spanish, but many of them know English as well.

Any questions?

[Warded to Leo]

I have two questions for you.

You know, when I decided to stay here instead of going home, I thought I'd be able to just relax and not worry about drama classes for a while. But mostly, except for the...interesting Christmas party, mostly I've been too bored with distraction to actually do anything productive.

Though I think I narrowed down my senior project to a couple ideas, so that's progress, right?

I underestimated how much I would miss the island though. Kele, tell me how beautiful it is.

I hope your party went well. I'm glad we could talk some.

Could we maybe stop caring about other people's appearance so much? And speculating about them, and saying horrible things like who is "easy" or not?

That would be great.

I'm glad no one ever talks about me in the anonymous posts because I'm pretty forgettable, but I hate seeing my sister and friends discussed. Hiding behind an anonymous filter is crappy. Talking about people like that is crappy.

Vee

I miss you.

Sly

Can we go smash things today?

WE NEED HELP!


We got caught sneaking out of the house to go to Tabs' party earlier this week and now our parents have us on LOCKDOWN. Someone who's better at sneaking out than we are, please advise! WE MISS YOU ALL! And we don't want to miss Cameron's party!

What are the chances of being able to leave Gooseberry to go to Cam's NYE party?

[Warded to Isaiah]

Hi there buddy friend Isaiah.

WHO: Anuhea Alapai and Penelope Vargas
WHEN: Friday, December 30th 2013
WHERE: An's dorm!
WHAT: Despite the fact that An and Penny historically were not friends, the two lonely girls who stayed over at Gooseberry for the holiday decide to get together and do *girl things* like paint nails and listen to music. Which An let Penny pick #sorrynotsorry. BONUS: Playlist here

( Who needed their old friends anyway? New Year, amirite? )

Personal statements are pointless. Does anyone care if they're actually meaningful? Does anyone even read them? The answer to both questions is No, probably not. I could make up the entire thing and nobody would know. "I want to be a Healer because my older brother was eaten by a Crup and his entrails looked really cool." "My first word was 'scalpel' because I was performing my first open-heart surgery at 16 months." "My dream is actually to stock boxes at Costco but I thought I'd try being a Healer first. It sounds like a cinch. lol."

In other news, who's going to Carney's New Year's party? Who's not? I'm trying to decide if my "those of you I want to see" list is going to outweigh my "those of you I don't want to see" list.

My turn: any chance you ~requested parental permission~ (apply sparkles as needed) for tomorrow night?
