Issue No. 9 Vol. 4The Prom Issue 2011

bree

I can’t tell you how excited I was to guest edit the issue in your hands right now! Growing up in Ireland, where our version of prom is called a “Debs” (short for Debutante Ball) and lacked many of the traditions you have in America, I always wondered what it would be like to be crowned Prom Queen. I’ll never know, but I do have some wisdom to share…• Take lots of pics, with and without your date. Crazy as it seems now,

in a few years, you may not even remember his or her name.• Don’t spend a ton of money on your dress or tux. Best intentions

aside, you’ll only wear it once.• Ditch the drama. This night is about making happy memories.

Here I am at my Debs. Morto!

Bíodh spraoi agus a bheith sábháiltes! (That’s ‘have fun and be safe’ for those of you who don’t speak Irish!)Sarah Paddy O’Leary BreenFormer Editor-in-Chief of Ireland’s KISS magazine and current azTeen Irish Exchange Editor

Featured ContributorsTwo staffers give us their take on prom, school and working for azTeen

Prom? Well, longtime azTeen staffer and Corona del Sol senior Bree Purdy thinks it’s an overrated waste of money. Will she be skipping hers? Not on your life. The invaluable Special Projects Editor – ie, the editor’s right-hand woman, “adores dressing up and getting all pretty.” She is also ready for graduation and “to break out my flannel and take on the woods” of NAU as a journalism major. It remains to be seen just how azTeen will function without her, and she without the magazine. “Despite contrary belief on staff, I am not as scary as many may think,” she says. “I’m just a strict

enforcer of deadline. This is my last issue, though – four years of my life right here. I’m probably crying inside. Thank you for the amazing opportunities.”

Boulder Creek sophomore Elizabeth Hudy has her sights set on a future career as an official Vans Warped Tour photographer. Until then, though, she is happy to shoot some of her favorite bands – The Maine, Austin Gibbs, Fun and Vampire Weekend – when they play locally. “Nothing makes me happier than seeing my favorite bands and capturing that concert so I don’t have to rely on merely my memory to keep enjoying the music even after it ends,” she says. When not shooting pics, Elizabeth loves to draw, decorate cakes or otherwise explore her quirky, creative side. But as a sophomore, prom isn’t yet on her radar. “I can’t go yet, but I’m sure I will enjoy it when I do,” she says. “It’s a rite of passage… and I’m looking forward to getting an awesome dress.”

music

Some say that the secret to success is persistence, and for Joplin, MO., native Carter Hulsey, this statement is as

accurate as it can get. Committing himself to music at age 18, Carter started out as a solo acoustic act when he was left without a band.

Being alone at such a young age seemed at first to be an obstacle but turned out to be the key to his success. After his breakthrough as a solo artist came a record deal with Loveaway Records. Now with the current release of A Note In Your Pocket, Hulsey has created his own unique sound by mixing folk and acoustic styles and is taking up the industry by storm.

azTeen recently caught up with him to chat about all things relevant and less so.

azTeen: If you were a dinosaur what type would you be?Carter Hulsey: I would be a brachiosaurus because they take it slow, they enjoy life, and they have long necks.

azTeen: Where do you want to spend your honeymoon? CH: My future wife can take care of that. I don’t care where I am, I just want to spend it in bed.

azTeen: What’s your favorite flavor of Chap Stick? CH: I like the original Burt’s Beeswax.

azTeen: Why did you decide to do a folk-based album for the current release? CH: I’m tired of playing by myself and I have a lot of friends that are really talented. I also have always loved folk music and I just wanted to play music with my friends. Playing by yourself is boring and lonely.

azTeen: What’s the dirtiest thing you’ve ever done in public?CH: How public are you talking?

azTeen: I’d say, more than three people.CH: I pooped on the top of a building.

azTeen: Really?CH: Yeah, my friends and I were breaking into buildings at night and I needed to go to the bathroom. (Laughs)

azTeen: What is your guilty pleasure song?CH: Kelly Clarkson has this song called You Found Me, and I like it a lot. That’s as guilty as it can get—but it’s a great song so I don’t feel guilty about it.

azTeen: What’s the most epic death?CH: I honestly don’t know. I don’t really think about dying; let’s have Isaac (tour manager) answer this. Isaac Duncan (Live Guitar/Mandolin/Tour Manager): You’re on the top of a bridge, any famous bridge. You get piano wire at the lowest string you can get. You tie it around your neck, you tie it to the bridge, you superglue your hands to your face, you tie the piano wire to your head and you jump off. So basically the only thing hanging from the bridge is your head and your hands. Think about it, that’s pretty effed up.

azTeen: What is the last thing you think about before you go to bed?CH: That’s a great question. I think about why I play music and why I try.

azTeen: Short girls or tall girls?CH: I like them shorter than me but tall.

azTeen: What’s tall?CH: Like 5’’9’.

It’s not often a family has three redheads, much less three beautiful redheaded daughters, and even much less often three beautiful redheaded girls who can sing. But East Valley natives Melanie, Mackenzie and Madelyn Merchant, who make up the trio Firefly, fit the bill perfectly.

The girls, 23, 19 and 15, respectively, have been singing for as long as they can remember. It all started with a little help from mom and dad.

“We’ve been singing since we were little,” says Melanie, a Higley grad. “My mom taught a singing class.”

The band officially formed two years ago. Since then, the trio – think Taylor Swift meets the Dixie Chicks – has played for crowds as small as 10 and as large as 2,500, at February’s azValenTeens Bash, Justin Bieber’s outdoor pre-show and when they opened for LeAnn Rimes. The Merchant girls agree that no matter how many people are in the audience, the performance is valid and worth their while.

FireFly’s hometown girls bring alt-country to the Valley and beyond

sistersin harmony

Let’S get thiS Party StarteD!music to set your prom-night moodThe dress, the limo, the perfect date, the only thing missing is the perfect prom playlist to make that night one to really remember. So here’s one, with new songs and classics as well, to sing at the top of your lungs on the way to prom. It will pump you up for the night and keep the party going once the dance ends and the parties begin.

With a little help from his friends ex-soloist Carter Hulsey embraces

“If you can touch one person in the audience then it’s worth doing the performance,” Melanie says.

Mackenzie is a graduate of Basha, where Maddie still attends. The girls listen to a lot of country – Rascal Flatts, Keith Urban, Taylor Swift and the Dixie Chicks are favorites – plus Avril Lavigne and Michelle Branch.

Through the support of country station KLME’s Tim and Willy, the girls have gained fans in the country world. Firefly credits the support of the DJ duo with a huge part of the band’s success. The other major factor? The girls’ relationship with one another.

“We feel like we have a unique relationship with each other,” Melanie says. “We are actually from a family of seven kids. We love all of our siblings and feel like the relationship we have together makes it easier to create music.”Check ‘em out at IHeartFirefly.com.

SANTA BARBARA, CALIFORNIA

Picking a college that is right for you is a

MAJOR DECISIONdid you know…

The word “prom” comes from the “promenade,” a custom in the

Deep South in the early 20th century. Because dancing was considered to be naughty and downright sacrilegious by some religions, senior dances weren’t

held. Instead, young couples were allowed to take short walks – or promenades – around

the block under heavy adult supervision. There is no historical documentation noting whether or not any of the chaperones hummed Get Low to set the mood, but we think that it’s unlikely.

What do you think of prom – amazing milestone evening or overrated, expensive night of drama?

gavin

“When you’re a senior, prom is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, most definitely a memorable evening totally worth the money. It really shouldn’t be passed up, because no matter

how much it costs, the memories are priceless. I only plan on going once, for my senior year.” – gAVIN koWALSkI, gILBERT ‘12

chad

“I give props to my baby sister for always being there for me and lov-ing me when I felt that no one else was there. She’s there no matter what and it’s not just because we’re sisters, it’s because we truly care about one another. Mackenzie, I love you more than anything else in the world.” – kENDRA BAkER, MESquITE ‘11

Who: Nathan ShooksWhere: Fountain Hills ‘11What: BaseballWhy you should care:Nathan has started every game since making varsity his sophomore year. Last year he batted an astonishing .424 with 43 runs and 42 hits in 99 at-bats. With Nathan primarily playing center field, the Falcons won 24 games last season and were runners-up in their region and state semifinalists. What he says: “I have been playing all my life and have never had a dull moment while on the baseball field. I love it for everything, every aspect of the game, whether it be hitting, fielding or supporting teammates. Everything is outright fun and enjoyable.”

Who: Kaitlyn VenbergWhere: Saguaro ‘11What: Track/HurdlesWhy you should care: A four-year member of varsity and current team captain, kaitlyn has some of the best times in the state for the 100m and 300m hurdles. Her accolades over her career as a Sabercat include Rookie of the Year (freshman), outstanding Sprinter/Hurdler (sophomore), MVP, Highest Varsity Point Scorer and All-City (junior); her 4X100 and 4X400 relay teams both placed fifth in state last year. She has also been a member of the Arizona Elite track club for three years.What she says: “The things I love most about track are the competition, the friendships I’ve made and all of the things that it’s taught me about myself. I never thought I would be able to endure the things I have. Saguaro Track is special because after every meet, our coaches give out beads that you put on your shoelaces (when you achieve) personal records, wins and Captain of the Week.”

Who: Jack NielsenWhere: Mountain Pointe ‘11What: LacrosseWhy you should care: The ‘Stormin’ Mormon’ is used to hearing fans chant is name after big plays in lacrosse, where he is a defender and long-stick midfielder, or football. The two-year lacrosse team captain has won the Captain Award and the Players Award and is known for his big hits, collisions and power cradles. In addition to sports, Jack is active in Student Council and Eagle Scouts.What he says: “Lacrosse is an overlooked sport. It has the physicality of football, the hand-eye coordination of baseball, similar rules to soccer and some of the same strategy as basketball. It is all sports combined into one, making it the absolutely ideal sport – perhaps the best sport in existence.”


ones towatchA look at some of the winter and spring’s

top Valley athletes who are

lauded on and off the field

Who: Jade WeltonWhere: Centennial ‘13What: Track/Long Jump/High Jump/Triple JumpWhy you should care: This overachieving sophomore ran varsity as a freshman in the 4X100m and 4X400m relays and also finished 7th in all three jumping events. A cheerleader and outstanding student, Jade was freshman class president and is now sophomore class president.What she says: “one of the main reasons I love track is because running is my stress-reliever. When I’m worried, stressed or upset, I go for a run to think and get my mind off of things. Also, track always pushes me to improve, and it keeps me in shape!”

Who: Chase CromwellWhere: Saguaro ‘11What: Soccer/TrackWhy you should care: Chase goes above and beyond in three sports: football, soccer and track, earning Honorable Mention All Region honors in soccer this year after three goals and five assists for the season and an All-City gold medal and 8th in state in the 4X100m relay in 2010 (and, of course, two state championships in football). Chase is treasurer of both the senior class and the calculus club and is co-founder and vice president of the gentlemen Scholars Club; he also won the Charro Foundation Male Student of the Year this year.What he says: “I have always been gifted with raw speed, and sprinting in track gives me that perfect niche to just channel all of my speed into one event. That explosion and burst off the line, and the feeling of sprinting down the home stretch with all eyes fixed on you, is unlike any other. It really teaches you to be a perfectionist, but also just to ‘race your race.’ You can only control how you do, and every detail counts in a race that lasts just over ten seconds.”

Who: Danny LutzWhere: Shadow Mountain ‘13What: Baseball Why you should care: Danny lettered as a freshman last year and also plays on the Diamondbacks Scout Team. Although he’s adept at most positions, he primarily plays second base, shortstop and pitcher. In the 2010 season, he pitched 15 innings, with three wins and 18 strikeouts. An injury ended his season early, something he plans to avoid this year.What he says: “What I love most about my sport would prob-ably be interacting with other play-ers on the field. I love being out on the field where it’s just me and my friends, away from all the stressful things. It’s like my own little get-away place.”

Who: Dean MartinoWhere: Poston Butte ‘12What: FootballWhy you should care: Dean excels in the classroom as well as on the football field and baseball diamond. An honor roll student and member of the National Honors Society, he is on track to graduate with a Scholar Diploma. He was First Team All Region Varsity quarterback as a junior.What he says: “I play because I love the competition and the emotion that goes into the game.”

Who: Brianna ZamoraWhere: Apollo ‘12What: TrackWhy you should care: Brianna has been a varsity runner since freshman year and has earned a spot in Apollo’s Hall of Fame for the 3200m. Also a cross country runner and soccer player at Apollo, Brianna received the Dr. Voie Stuart Chase Coy Scholar Athlete/Activity Award. A member of the National Honor Society, she has completed more than 50 hours of community service.

Who: Stacy Davis, Tolleson ‘12What: BasketballWhy you should care: Stacy averaged 23.4 points, 10.2 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game this season, a continuation of last year when he earned First Team All Region and Hon-orable Mention All State honors. The “small” forward is 6-foot-7 and plays club ball for the Arizona Stars.What he says: “The one thing I love about basketball is that I don’t have to worry about anything when I’m playing. Whenever I’m playing, I’m not thinking about anything but helping my team get a win. If I have a homework assign-ment due or if I’m having girl troubles or something like that, it all doesn’t matter when I’m playing – it’s just me, the ball and my team, who are like my second family.”

Who: Aleeza Kanner, Sunnyslope ‘12What: TennisWhy you should care: Aleeza has won scores of awards, including 2009 Rookie of the Year, MVP 2010, third place in state 2009 and 2010, sec-ond in state in team competition 2010, and doubles champ in the Southwest Closed 16s last year. She has also won academic and sportsmanship awards.What she says: “Playing a sport is great for physical stamina, but by being a part of one, you will learn things about yourself that no one could have told you before. It will make you much stronger mentally. But, I think with the drive to be the best, especially with what I have seen at local and national tournaments, we have forgotten that a sport will always just be a sport. It’s for fun! Players shouldn’t lose themselves to win. Don’t forget to look at the bigger picture.”

my friends and watching the teachers dance on stage.” – ANASTASIA oVCHINNIkoVA, ARIzoNA SCHooL FoR THE ARTS ‘13

2 “With it being my senior year it was the most memo-

rable experience and I had so much fun.” — AMY guRRoLA, PERRY ‘11

3 “I loved being at my first Homecoming! It was awe-

some to see the event come to-gether.” — oLIVIA ARguE, CHAPARRAL, ‘14

4 “Why I’m looking forward to prom is to dress up and

have a great time with my

the wonderful memories I am going to make with my closest friends! There’s nothing like spending the day with the girls getting ready then dancing the night away.” — CLARA ANNE MCgARRY, MILLENNIuM ‘11

7 “I had a blast at homecom-ing because it was drama

free.” — JuLIE MCDoNALD, BIoSCIENCE ‘11

8 “Prom is really exciting be-cause of the build-up. First

it’s the dress buying, then it’s the shoes and accessories— which I like because you can just go all out. The whole plan-ning process with your friends makes it exciting with anticipa-

tion, which is why Christmas Dance 2010 was so much fun!” — RENA MILToN, XAVIER ‘11

pictures with friends and family before is a must.” — JuLIA PRESToN MouNTAIN PoINTE ‘13

am looking forward to taking a hot date and partying the night away with her. Heckakakaka!” — SAM LEVINE, HoRIzoN ‘11

11 “I think getting ready for the dance and dinner before

always sets the best mood for the

friends, to party it up with danc-ing and enjoy ourselves for one night. This is the one time where Prom is way better than Homecoming since you are with your grade only, rather than being with the lower class.”— SHELBY NELSoN, CHAPARRAL ‘12

5 “Before Winter Formal our group had an amazing

paint fight day date. We got bot-tles of paint and basically at-tacked each other. The follow-ing Monday we wore our paint-covered clothes to school.”— kATELYN BEAL, HIgHLAND ‘12

actual dance because everyone is just more upbeat for all the dancing the night has in store.” — ALEXANDRIA RuIz, MCCLINToCk ‘11

12 “I like going to school dances because you spend

weeks getting excited for it! You get a new dress and get your hair and makeup done. When the night arrives you are so pumped! What I like most is the moment you get inside and everyone is dancing and the music is blasting. It is such an amazing vibe you don’t get anywhere else. It’s nothing but fun with all your friends!”— SARA MoSEDALE, PINNACLE ‘12

13 “Homecoming was such a blast! It was my first time

going to a dance during my high school experience and I

actually went to my rival school’s game and Homecoming dance. It was fun just to dance around like an idiot without caring what people thought.” — kRISTA ALEXANDRA, ToLLESoN ‘12

coming. The theme was ‘Out of this World!’”— SHELBY CHuRNEY, CHAPARRAL ‘14

Prom can be a treacherous event, with peril around every corner. Decked out in their finery, our spies and villains prove that danger is no excuse not to look good.

Natalie: The golden girlNatalie gardner, Hamilton ’12, channeled generations of screen sirens to portray azTeen’s own stunning Bond girl.

How was the shoot? “So much fun! The anticipation had been killing me to know when I was going to get to appear in the magazine I have been reading all through high school. The location was beautiful, the models were even sweeter in person than on Facebook, and the clothes got me even more anxious for prom!”

Must-have spy gadget? “If I was a spy, I would like to wear sunglasses with mirrors so I could see behind myself in case a bad guy came to attack me. I would want high-tech hearing aids so I could listen to evil plans being made from miles away, and a watch that had a walkie-talkie built in so I can contact my spy sidekicks when I need backup!”

What else? “Although in pictures I appear to be a girly-girl with all the glitz and glamour, I will always be a tomboy at heart who loves to eat pizza, have burping contests with my two older brothers and race dirt bikes in the mud.”

Jimmy: Chillin’ like a villainJimmy Abarikwu, Chaparral ’11, managed to make a fresh felon at our shoot despite rockin’ the azValenTeens Bash the night before as our studly Cupid.

Prom this year? “I’m pretty much expecting the best night of my date’s life and another great day in mine!”

First song on your prom playlist? “Outta Your Mind – Lil Jon and LMFAo.”

Spy or villain in real life? “Spy, because clearly I’m too cute to be a villain. Plus, I’m not the rule-the- world type.”

Must-have spy gadget? “Rocket boots to fly out of sticky situations, or shades with a computer in them to tell me what to do.”

Destinee: Good girl gone badDestinee quinn, Liberty ’11, played against type as a Russian baddie.

Outfit of choice for the azTeen Prom cover? “I absolutely loved the red Sherri Hill dress I got to wear! Besides that, any dress that is pink, sparkly and princess-like, either long or short! The black wig made me look like a completely different person – not realistic, but it was still fun trying to be a Russian villain.”

First song on your prom playlist? “Just Dance by Lady gaga.”

Spy or villain in real life? “I would be a spy for sure! I remember when I was younger, my friends and I would play spy during recess. I was so excited when that little toy that was supposed to help you hear through walls came out. I didn’t work, but we all liked to think so. The spy always gets the better end of the deal.”

Xander: The O.G.Xander Cannon, Pinnacle ’12, was our suave and debonair rogue.

Worst part of the shoot? “The shoes that were two sizes to small that I wore for the whole five hours!”

Must-have spy gadget? “X-ray goggles.”Perfect prom outfit for the azTeen cover? “I would

probably wear a classy all-white tux like the one I wore in the shoot.”

Spy or villain in real life? “I’d be a spy like Bond and get the ladies.”

Morgan: Black beautyMorgan Jensen, Corona del Sol ’12, dazzled in a dark dress

Must-have spy gadget? “I would ask a genius to craft a time-freezing watch. It would stop everyone and everything but me, and then I could take my time in getting the job done. So say I get approached by a big scary villain, he has his brass knuckles on, his gun raised at my face… I push one button and I can calmly drag him off to jail before another second goes by. Plus, also a watch would have a button to turn me invisible.”

Perfect prom outfit for the azTeen cover? “I’d love to get to design my own prom dress and wear it on the cover. I’d be very proud to show people comething of my own creation.”

Spy or villain in real life? “Most definitely a spy. I could never be evil – I’d feel bad inside – but being a spy sounds enticing. I have a habit of eavesdropping and I notice small details so espionage is the way to go. I might be too tall to be sneaky, but that also means that no one would suspect me.”

Cody: Fond of Bond Connery? Moore? Brosnan? Craig? Those has-beens should stand aside, as Cody gibson,

Pinnacle ’11, puts the amateurs to shame.How was the shoot? “Long but a lot of fun. Not what

I was expecting. I thought I would throw on some good-looking clothes and take a couple quick pictures. That didn’t happen. The worst was standing in the hot suit, balancing a briefcase filled with ‘gold’ in one hand while making sure none slid out. But it was great getting to be in azTeen Magazine as James Bond, my childhood movie star obsession!”

Must-have spy gadget? “I would have to go with go-go gadget arms and a helicopter hat so I can reach anything at anytime and escape any bad situation. Plus, the remote-controlled car controlled by his watch. No more walking to the car – it would come to me.”

Perfect cover pic? “Me in the tuxedo with a comb-over… It’s already been taken.”

Spy or villain in real life? “Spy. James Bond always ends up with the girls.”

Anything else? “Being the youngest of three brothers, I skipped the whole Barney thing and went right to James Bond. I was the youngest, smallest kid watching James Bond movies … now I AM James Bond!”

vsection compiled by collegiate editor carolina lopez

EmmanuEll malDonaDoASU ’12; is majoring in Business“my first big surprise was that a high school essay of two pages was the best homework assignment you could ever receive... and totally missing from the college experience. better stock up on your paper supply. eight-page, 10-page, 15-page papers are very much a reality.”

HuntEr ScHwarzBrigham Young University ‘12; is majoring in Communications“i was surprised

at how hard it was to keep up with school. it wasn’t that it was too hard for me. i just enjoyed hanging out with my new friends without a curfew a little too much. there was always something going on, and it was easy to do that

instead of study.”

lulu contrEraSScottsdale Community College ’13, is majoring in Business“it was different in that i was expecting a wilder experience, more exotic and open-minded people, but i went to community college my first year, so none of these things were there. also i was surprised that i doubted and changed my first choice of major even when i loved it so much, then went back to it.”

corInnE SolHEIDUniversity of Minnesota ’13; is majoring in Biochemistry / Pre-Med and minoring in Spanish“i wasn’t really surprised by much when i went to college. i went in thinking that it would be different from high school, and it definitely was. i think one thing that surprised me the most was how much partying and drinking actually goes on. in high school drinking definitely happened, but it is much more large-scale and widely done in college. also, i was surprised to find that a lot of college classes are actually hard. grades are based on only a few test grades in many science and math classes, so you have to work really hard to get a good grade.”

rob StanforD University of Redlands ‘12; is a Philosophy Major with an Asian Studies minor and an emphasis on Pre-Law “my biggest surprise was how quickly my money disappeared. i looked up mid-January and it was nowhere to be seen. the silver lining in the whole situation is that i did my part to boost the economy and anybody that had stock in Jack-in-the-box.”

SamantHa ScHwartzUofA ‘12; is majoring in Physiology“the biggest surprise for me was probably that i now have to work harder to maintain good grades and that there are many distractions that come along. it was surprising living in the dorm my freshmen year, how hard it is to

share a room with someone you did not know till move in day. there weren’t any surprises that completely shocked me about college. it is just a new experience living on your own and having no one to give you instructions or help guide you anymore.”

lInDSay JakowS Pepperdine ‘12; is double-majoring in International Studies and Political Science “there were some classes that were significantly easier than i had thought they would be, and some classes that were significantly harder than i thought.”

marcEa DEckEr UofA ‘13; is majoring in Economics and minoring in Geography and the Japanese Language “my biggest surprises in my first year of college were how expensive textbooks were and how fellow students respected other students thoughts and opinions when they were shared in class. in high school i was so used to people thinking that speaking up in class was for show-offs, the teacher’s pet, or

nerds. in college, i’ve had a lot of participation-intensive classes where speaking up and thinking critically were demanded in the classroom. it’s so refreshing to have real discourse in a classroom without the fear that your classmates will make fun of you later. instead, you gain respect from not only the professor, but your classmates as well.”

azteen’s panel of collegians gives the

lowdown on campus lifeWhat were the biggest

surprises during your FirSt year of college? how was it different than you thought it

would be?

EmIly raDEr NAU ’12; is majoring in Political Science and Journalism “i was surprised that you actually meet your best friends in random places like the bathroom or the laundry room. i was surprised by the variety of foods you can make in a microwave. i was surprised that i no longer thought having school spirit was lame. i was really surprised that cafeteria food isn’t always lumpy and mushy and a weird gray color. i was surprised to learn that jocks can be smart and that geeks can love sports and that just because a person cares about how they look doesn’t mean they don’t care about anything else.

the most important thing i’ve learned in college is that looks can be deceiving, and there are so many different types of people in the world, all with good and bad qualities. i thought college was going to gradually ease me into adulthood, but there’s nothing grad-ual about it! after my parents dropped me off, it was all up to me to figure out everything. i thought college was going to be really easy for me. i thought classes would be a breeze, meeting people would be no problem, and that i wouldn’t mind being away from home. i thought i had everything figured out. i had the next eight semesters of classes planned. i was never going to change my major. until i did. twice. and then added a minor.

making plans doesn’t always mean following them—that was the biggest surprise dur-ing my first year. there were times when it felt like nothing was going right: i was homesick, i hated some of my classes, i really hated my major, and my roommate and i did not get along.

of course it hasn’t been all bad. overall, college has been this amazing growing experience for me, and i wouldn’t change any of it. even the bumps in the road have helped me to learn and grow. it especially helped as a freshman to know that every other freshman was going through the same sort of things i was experiencing, and that i was never actually alone with any of my problems.

it’s the final installment for this year’s panel. we’re looking for wise collegians to assume the mantle for the next school year, so if you know of a wise college student who will be at least a sophomore during the 2011-2012 school year, tell them to contact us ([email protected]) with a bio.

OMG…the food was delish, the price was right and we got to pre-plan our menu (so the dress will still fit). Since we called ahead, our group got a per-person price, no math was involved. It was the perfect start to a night we will never forget.

Corey eDWArDS, UofA “So my first semester of college was pretty awesome! I had a really good time with my friends and finally had the experience of living on my own. Although classes were a bit tougher than in high school, I studied and still pulled through with a perfect 4.0! Although I had a lot of fun at school, it was nice to be home to see some of my friends that go to different schools. We had some pretty fun times over break; in the picture we are celebrating a friend’s birthday with sparklers. Now that I know I can handle the responsibilities that come along with college and leaving home I plan to make my next semester even better. I hope to become more involved in some of the clubs on campus like Alpha Epsilon Delta and Flying Samaritans. I’m going to make my college experi-ence something I will never forget. I’m in the prime of my life and I’m going to live it!”

ZACHAry GASToNy, Texas A&M University

“Howdy, y’all! I’m not exactly sure where I left you guys off at, but I’ll go into the most recent developments. I’m now a couple weeks into my second semester of college, and things are starting to improve. I managed more par-tying than studying, ending up with a GPA that is under the required scholarship mini-mum I am supposed to keep. My academic advisors reassured me that this happens all the time, and as long as I improve my grades this semester, I won’t lose my scholarship. Since having spoken with them, I have gone through a complete overhaul and am doing my best to study nightly and go over notes from class. Don’t think that it takes up my whole schedule, though! I still manage to party on the weekends. Other news includes: I am officially ‘dating’ a local Texan girl (or was as of writing this), signed a lease for a new apartment with my two buddies here, and possibly getting a job at a local motor speedway. College life is finally settling down a bit, as the excitement of living on my own wears off a little bit.”

BrITTANy HArDy,Princeton University“At Princeton, we take our finals after our winter break. It may seem stress-ful for some, but I like it because we literally have no classes, minus ones with finals, until the end of January. I enjoyed my winter break at home with my family and my boyfriend in the warmth while my friends had to trek through the bad snowstorm that hit the New England area. I still had to get back in the mindset of school though. This semester I will be taking Sculpture, Intro to Language and Linguistics, Spanish Language/Culture through Cinema, and, last but not least, Caribbean Music. I chose a schedule that I liked and was flexible (Only Monday-Wednesday classes). I’m really excited for Caribbean Music because I haven’t studied music since middle school! I’m also running for the Communications Officer for the Princeton Association of Black Women, so I’ll be busy campaign-ing once I return to campus. In my last update, I mentioned how I wanted to change my major. My adviser and I didn’t end up talking about it because it is still freshman year, and I won’t have to declare my major until next year. I’ve officially decided I want to pursue soci-ology, so we will see how it goes.”

HILLAry BurGeSS, The University of Texas“I knew UT would be diverse, but I had no idea how many people of different backgrounds I would meet. I have friends from as far away as Australia and friends of every religion, and it’s amazing! I absolutely love my second semester classes – mostly sociology and advertising/PR classes – and am really busy with Texas Wrangler Darlins as Uni-

form Chair and recruitment committee. The bads? Well, as I write this it is 3 degrees outside with the wind chill, and when I walk to school tomorrow it is supposed to be about 15 degrees. This is not my natural habitat! Even though I knew it could get cold, I was definitely not prepared for this. The second thing is that because of money, Matt had to move back to AZ and now we are having to do a long-distance relationship. I re-ally miss him, but we see each other about every three or four weeks, so it will be OK. I’ve had such a great time meeting people that I’ve decided to rush a sorority in the fall. That’s something I never thought I’d do, but college is all about trying new things, right?”

their freshman year is winding down, and our 6 students are ready to pass the torch to a new group of freshmen. wanna take their places, seniors? tell us about your college plans and why you’d be a perfect freshmen to follow in 2011-2012 at [email protected].

eMILy PISKuLICK, Gonzaga “Having time off from school for a month was awesome, but I was thrilled to head back to Spokane to see all of my friends and start classes! It’s funny – I never could have imagined myself wanting to head back to freezing cold weather and snow, but I’m really happy about getting back into the groove of things at school. I’m taking English, Political Science, Psy-chology, Journalism and Religion. I also just declared as a double major in English and Public Relations, so I’m enthusiastic about digging deeper into the subjects I love the most. I’ve learned so much in such a short amount of time in college. I’ve learned how to dress for snow, deal with stressful days and friend drama, and how to handle home-sickness, on top of gaining some lifelong friends. I’ve had such a great time exploring everything that college has to offer and I can’t wait to continue to broaden my horizons during this upcoming semester. Go Zags!”

VIVIAN PADILLA, ASU“This semester I’m taking a class in Tempe instead of just downtown because I want to experience the ‘college town’ life since it is the main campus that most students attend. I’m also taking on two projects of working for The State Press video department, and (hopefully) the magazine por-tion as a photographer. It is incredibly exciting since I do want to pursue a career in photography. But, with the start of this new semester, I’m also trying to figure out if I should sign up as a double-major student. However, the prob-lem lies within what degree to follow – political science or photography? I’m leaning more towards a degree in political science, but then there is the question of becoming a double-major student, or getting a minor…”
