From Sherry: “What could you give your boyfriend for his birthday?”
She said: I don’t think it’s necessary to buy him something expensive. Just buy him something simple. You can just spend time with him and give him a surprise. The most important thing is spending time with them and just having fun. He knows that you care for him and that he has you and that’s the best gift he could receive. It doesn’t matter what you buy or what you get him; what matters is the memories that you create. From Sherry: “What is a good gift to buy my boyfriend for his birthday?” He said: It’s not as hard to buy a guy a gift as everyone thinks. You could easily buy him a piece of clothing from a brand that he favors (Nike, Hollister, Adidas, etc). There is always the option of taking him out to a popular restaurant. My favorites are Buffalo Wild Wings and Hooters. Romantically, you could cook him a nice home cooked dinner. Don’t try to cook if you know that you aren’t good at it though. You’re trying to make him happy, not lose him. Cook something that you know that you’re good at and something that he’ll like. Trying to make something for the first time might be setting you up for failure. Honestly guys don’t really care about how expensive the gift is that you buy him. The appreciation comes from the value of the effort that you put into making that smile sneak on our faces. We just want to be reassured that we are prized. From Pancho: “Is there a way to break up with your girlfriend without hurting her feelings?” She Said: I think you should just be straight up and tell her that things have changed. Don’t hurt her with a lie; tell her the truth. Creating a lie will only hurt her more and sooner or later the truth will come out. If you explain to her she will probably understand. Look at it on the bright side, maybe you guys can be friends after the break up. Either way there isn’t a proper form to break up with a girl without hurting her feelings. From Pancho: “Is there a way to break up with your girlfriend without hurting her feelings?” He Said: The only way to break up with a girl and not hurt her feelings is to pay her a million dollars to not cry. If you’re in Hubbard, then I’m pretty sure you can’t afford to do that. Truth is, there is no real way to break up with a girl who actually CARES about you without causing pain in her heart. Just try to let her down as easy as possible. The most disrespectful way to break up with a girl is through a text message or to send someone else to tell her your business. That’s like asking “Hey! How can I get you to hate me?” Don’t be a coward. You just have to man up and do what you have to do.

By Maria Gonzalez THE BELL HAS RUNG! Four minutes! The hallways are overcrowded. With more and more students entering each year, there is more shoving, pushing, and pulling in the hallways to be on time. The passing time has changed again this year and a minute has been reduced. No more conversations with your friends and less time going to your lockers. Students are now under pressure of being swept with a minute less to get to class than last year. Nancy Alvarez, Div. 506, took the time to share her experience with the new bell schedule. Nancy said, “I felt pressure because of the new hall sweeps. Also, I have to go quicker to my locker and have less time to have conversations with friends.” She also said, “It should be removed because it would reduce the pressure on students to be on time. Hall sweeps also take up to fifteen minutes of our class, especially during first period. I think the school cut out the one minute to teach students to be on time more often.” The advice she wants to give is students shouldn’t take those four minutes for granted although it feels like we only have two minutes to be on time to class. They should consider that time is no joke and being tardy can badly hurt their attendance and grades. By Angel Segura
The schools detention policy has to be the most painful concept ever. They do so much to have these students serve detention for cuts and tardies. However, this whole idea works if you actually think about it. Once a student has not shown up to any detentions during the regular school day or if a student has too many cuts, Mr. Crotty has to give the student a Saturday detention. Mr. Crotty said, “The main cause of Saturday detentions has to be tardies or missed morning detentions. Saturday detention has helped to decrease the out of school and in school suspension rate considerably. Nobody wants to come to school on a Saturday.” They give the option to bring your own work or they can give you work to do there. Not showing up makes things even worse; they give students in-school or out of school suspension. Wendy Hidalgo, Div. 512, said, “Honestly, I do not think cutting or being late was worth it because I had to wake up at 7:30 on a Saturday morning just so I can be at the school at 8! You basically just sit in a chair until 11 am when they release you. It’s the most exhausting and boring 3 hours of your life! It’s literally the only time in your life when a chair is your worst enemy!” Even if Saturday detention is the worst of them all, just looking at how many students never want to serve detention on a Saturday morning proves that the whole detention process works. |
