MARCH 20112 TEEN SCENE

By Howell DennisTeen Scene Editor

We’re entering the homestretch guys. I’m sure you can smell the suntan oil and the barbecue already but you still have two more months of work to do so let’s get fo-cused, buckle down and make it to the fi n-ish line in style. The beach isn’t going anywhere.

Congratulations to the Lady Pios and the Lady Dogs on great basketball seasons. On the boy’s side the Midland Rebels and the Gents were the cream of the crop in the parish this year.

I haven’t had a chance to see the Pio’s baseball team this year but from what I’ve heard they’re loaded. I was listen-ing to Kevin Foote’s talk show on 1420 AM the other day and he just went on and on about them. Need to check those guys out pretty soon. Another Pio’s state title in the near future?

So how bout this weather guys? This past week has been as close to perfection as I can remember. I spent most of the day yesterday (Sunday) mowing mine and my father’s yard and I can’t remem-ber the last time I’ve actually enjoyed doing yard work so much.

This is my fourth year of doing Teen Scene and I’m sure I’m starting to sound repetitive but you seniors need to be

focused. I wrote a bit about the disease Senioritus in the last Teen Scene but I’m going to mention it again today. With prom, gradua-tion and all the events that come along with it coming up it’s easy to get distracted. Don’t forget your grades come fi rst. I can un-derstand your excitement though. High school graduation only comes once a lifetime.

Things sure are crazy in the world right now. All one needs

to do is turn on CNN and see the tragic situations in Japan and Libya for a quick reality dose.

When it comes to Japan I am liter-ally speechless. An earthquake, a tsu-nami and a nuclear disaster are disasters of epic proportions in their own right. Having all three of them happen simul-taneously is simply jaw-dropping. In all disasters it seems you see something in their aftermath that is a triumph to the human spirit. On Sunday, an 80-year-old woman and her grandson were rescued after spending nine days trapped under-neath the rubble. They were very fortu-nate in that the room they were trapped in beneath several feet of debris had their refrigerator in it allowing them just enough food to survive during that time.

I’ll tell you something. I have never seen more shocking footage come one major news story in my life. The power that a tsunami has is simply astonish-ing. When I fi rst read that the tsunami was traveling close to 500 mph when it

hit the shore I thought it was a misprint. It wasn’t. Watching all those cars get tossed around like toys made me thank-ful that I don’t own any beach front property in California.

The problems they are having at all those nuclear facilities is another thing entirely. I’ve heard many different opin-ions from many different ‘experts’ but truthfully the world has never seen any-thing like this before. People around the world have been keeping the Japanese people in their prayers. I hope they are answered.

The Libyan crisis is another issue. Moammar Gadafi (I’ve now seen this guy’s last name spelled Kadafi , Quadafi and, most recently, Gadafi - would he please just pick one) has been a thorn in the side of the U.S. for a long time now and it would be nice to see him fi nally out of our hair. Now that the United Na-tions has shut down his force’s air space and bombed his military installations hopefully the rebels (who just want to live in a free society) can regroup and fi nish what they started. For G/K/Quad-ifi ’s sake I hope he has chosen which country with a no extradition treaty he’d like to live in. Otherwise we may soon see this guy swinging from a rope.

On a lighter note, I hope everyone had a great Mardi Gras and Easter is fast ap-proaching. I have to say I’m pretty proud of myself because for the fi rst time in re-cent memory I managed to stick to both my New Year’s resolution and have so far held fi rm with what I gave up for

Lent. I think the trick is to not choose something unrealistic. For Lent, I gave up carbonated drinks. It’s been nearly two weeks now since I have had a Coke and I can assure you that’s been the lon-gest stretch of my life. I have to admit to missing my daily 44 oz. Coke that I buy every morning on the way to work but I’m going to stick to it. Must admit though I’m getting pretty tired of the taste of iced tea.

As busy as you guys will be getting ready for fi nals, graduation and other ‘end of the school year’ events, we will be just as busy. Graduation time is al-ways crazy at the Post-Signal as we have to cover all of your awards ceremonies and commencement exercises. During the past four years I have covered Crow-ley High’s, Midland’s and Northside Christian’s graduations. I need to get out to Iota and Notre Dames ceremonies so that I can say I’ve covered them all. It’s always fun to watch you guys as you fi nally get rewarded for the past four years.

In closing, I’d like to mention once again how strange it is that I’ve watched some of you guys grow from freshmen to seniors. I know the last four years have seemed like an eternity for you but for me they’ve fl own by. As you grow older you will notice that time seems to pass quicker. I know that sounds strange but wait and see.

Look forward to speaking to you guys again soon. From the Crowley Post-Sig-nal. Over and out.

Stay focused guys, the beach isn’t going anywhere

Prom Season Is Here..... Are You Ready?

By Jeannine LeJeuneTeen Scene Writer

As one might guess, there isn’t much silver lining in unexplainable fevers, especially the ones that keep you up way late into the next morning.

But I finally found that one silver lining a couple of Saturdays ago. As some of you may new, Disney movies used to be awesome, or at least in my age groups’ eyes they were. Long since gone are the days of “Brink,” and “Alley Cats Strike” (which is likely the only movie to ever make bowling seem cool in the his-tory of television). However, since I was stuck awake half-cold, half hot (or as I referred to myself, a Katy Perry song) my friend stumbled across a 1:30 a.m. gem, a Disney original movie from 1999, “Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century.” For you youngins who are unaware of the greatness of this movie it is set in 2049. Zenon Kar is part of a community that lives on a space station, the Windcom Space Station–not overly inventive I know. Windcom has recently come on bad times and decides to sabotage the space station to collect the insurance

check, leaving it up to Zenon to save the day.But the plot really isn’t the point here. The point is

this, the likes of “Looney Tunes” and “Zenon” always seem to put me in a good mood, despite how terrible I may be feeling.

Ironically, I spent most of the next day watching TV and movies but the only one that managed to keep me awake and alert was the movies or television shows that I hadn’t seen in ages. I tried to make it through the “tosh.0” marathon, couldn’t last through two shows. I tried watching “Ocean’s Eleven” twice, fell asleep both times.

I think what really kept me awake was the memories of quoting these movies/shows for months after it’s re-lease.

In a way, you know minus the fact that it was two in the morning, it reminded me of when you are stuck at home sick as a kid and all you can really do is rest and watch TV. And I guess the over arching point is don’t be afraid to enjoy some guilty pleasures that you still may enjoy from your childhood.

Case in point, the other day “Space Jam” came

on television and I was adamant that it needed to be DVR’d in my home. Because you never know when you need a good laugh at how ridiculously simple, and yet awesome, some of the things you grew up with truly were. (Needless to say the next time I get sick for no reason, I’m set.)

It’s actually one of the things that gets a head shake from some of my coworkers as I have “Looney Tunes” or “Daria” or something along those lines on in the background as I work. (I can barely work in completely silence, particularly when my writer’s block starts act-ing up. I know it seems counter intuitive, but if you knew me, it would make absolutely perfect sense.)

That isn’t to say tastes don’t mature with any and all forms of entertainment. If they didn’t we’d all still be watching Power Rangers and Disney movies only or listening exclusively to boy bands all day.

What I’m saying is that it’s OK to like a variety of things. It’s OK to go from Lady Antebellum to Emi-nem, from football to “Glee” and from Zenon to “The Social Network” all in one day.

There is one other thing that exponentially helps

CHILDHOOD: Pop in old favorites

when your sick and, for a teenager, its usually the most painful to admit: a mom willing to help take care of you know matter how grouchy and annoying you become. So, despite the fact that by 13-14 we are all convinced we no longer need our parents, we can use them when we’re sick. So, be sure to thank them when they help you out the next time you get sick.

I leave you today with one last sound pieces of advice, the fact that you are

in high school means you do have a few sick days. Now while I, better than most, understand how diffi cult it is to recover from a couple of missed days, I recommend the next time you forced to stay home sick, pop in your favorite old television shows and/or movies. Just because you feel miserable doesn’t mean you should be completely miserable. You should be able to enjoy something while feeling bad. If not, there would be liter-ally no point in getting your tonsils re-moved.

Sometimes, ‘Mother Nature’ can be very cruelBy Jeannine LeJeuneTeen Scene Writer

It seems like each year there is some sort of event that shakes me to my core.

The strange part is that by now I should be rather desensitized especially in the media age where fi nding out in-formation and seeing things across the globe is as easy as a few keystrokes. But, every year something happens and I’m reminded how quickly life can change.

In my own life I’ve had small mo-ments, deaths in the family and whatnot,

that have done the same or very close to the same, but there is something about a school shooting or, as of late, natural di-sasters that leave you completely shaken.

The fi rst one that really got to me was, of course, September 11. It is the big national moment of my generation. I re-member getting home from school–I was in eighth grade at the time–and putting on my television and fl ipping back and forth between newscasts. I was in awe and heartbroken. It killed me to watch, but like most, I couldn’t turn away.

The next time I had this same jumble

of emotions was Hurricane Katrina. I was a senior in high school at this point and was only going to school half of the day. This meant that half of the day was spent at school and the other half was spent fl ipping back and forth from CNN to Fox News just completely dumb-struck. I also remember getting so angry at the logistical, political nightmare this was becoming. It was the fi rst time I real-ized something I should have known all along, everything is a political battle.

There’s your fi rst lesson folks. Under-stand now that part of the unfairness of life is that even though most of us see the world in a litany of shades of gray, most of the times decisions are made by those focusing on a spectrum that is only seen to have two sides with no middle ground.

The next time was the Virginia Tech shooting. That one was easy to pinpoint why it got to me. I was in my fi rst year of college and would be heading to the big school of the state, LSU, within months.

There’s lesson number two for those of you heading to college. Those places are WIDE open, most colleges now have emergency alert systems that incorporate many methods of letting you know if there is an emergency–e-mail, text mes-sages and now social media. Utilize all those that you can and all that are avail-able. If nothing else it will make your parent(s) feel better likely and trust me you’ll be glad did if there ever is an emergency.

Then, over the last two years, mother nature’s work has once again shaken me. There was Haiti’s earthquake last year

and this year it was Japan’s 8.9 magni-tude quake that led to a massive tsunami, multiple aftershocks, wildfi res, a whirl-pool, a nuclear emergency and more.

Japan’s quake didn’t just affect the country of Japan, however, as after ef-fects, including the tsunami wave that made its way to Hawaii then the West Coast and kept moving across the Pacifi c Ocean.

So instead of spending the day keep-ing an eye on basketball, like my Thurs-day was spent, Friday was spent with my eyes watching in horror as more and more video was released from Japan.

Locally, we were all reminded with the tornadoes that hit Acadia Parish Mardi Gras weekend, especially with the way Rayne was hit.

Even now, days later as headlines continue to change as quickly as our fo-cuses typically do, I fi nd it diffi cult to completely change my own focus. I keep checking the latest updates on Japan about as much as I check scores in the NCAA tournament. It’s diffi cult to get ourselves to a point of normalcy once we’ve been shaken, and that’s OK, be-cause it’s not like those affected by natu-ral disaster are anywhere near normal themselves yet.

There’s our fi nal lesson for the day, guys and gals; we are all one second away from our lives forever changing. We see it daily with a loss of a loved one, but something that massive in another country, or our own, is the grimmest and scariest reminder.

MARCH 20118 TEEN SCENE

By Jeannine LeJeuneTeen Scene Writer

Let me preface this for all of you who do not know me, I’m a sports fanatic, which means the fall and winter are ac-tually two of my favorite seasons. I’m no fan of freezing, but the winter sports are always fun.

OK, now that that’s covered, I can get into this piece.

Up until this season, I forgot how much I liked basketball. Perhaps it was because I was surrounded with it in high school, but when I got to college it was all about football for me. But this season as I covered a few basketball games on and off for the paper this year, it started hitting me. Then in the second round of the boys’ playoffs, I really realized it. In fact, I almost forgot I wasn’t a fan for a brief moment, and I think it is those types of games that draws sports writers, both aspiring and actual, to do what they do.

Granted, I always enjoy this time of year thanks to March Madness, but even that level of fan-dom has grown over the years. (And if my fanhood can survive last year’s disaster of a bracket sheet, it must be returning big time.) But, lately, it’s been more and more evident.

The game I referred to earlier is the Mt. Hermon at Midland regional playoff game. The Rebels had a comeback and a moment that you see on television all of the time. It’s those do-or-die moments that as a sports fan you love seeing. It was also that moment that made me love my part-time night job even more.

As I sat high up on the visitor’s side of the stands and score went from a nine point defi cit for the home team to only two points down by the time the third quarter ended, all the while the crowd getting louder and louder, a smile crept along my face.

You may be thinking to yourself, “Jeannine, you are very much sound-ing like a homer now.” Well, you may be right, but to me, it gives me hope that

as time goes on you truly don’t become completely desensitized to sports and it also leads me to believe that my love affair with basketball has returned. You gotta love a sport that even when you are 11 points down, it isn’t completely over, I mean unless there’s like one minute or less left in the game, but you get the idea.

Now, let’s not get it twisted, football is still my favorite sport, but I fi nally re-member why I loved going to basketball games this season.

So, for that, I thank you Iota and Mid-land (who I covered this year). Because there is something fun about reminding yourself something you should have known all along; and in this case I had a blast slowly remembering my love of basketball.

Now, if you will excuse me, I need to go start studying because I don’t plan on losing half of my Elite 8 in the fi rst weekend of the tournament this year and the only way I know to make sure that doesn’t happen is by going “study.”

After all, bracketology is one of my favorite springtime subjects.

Then again, the NCAA tournament bracket has always been more favorable to the Jessica Simpsons of the world who rely on jerseys and mascots to make choices instead of basketball IQ. So likely all the studying and comparing I did was pointless and by the time you all read this, I’ll be miserable, preparing to eat a lot of crow and will be forced to hear trash talk from all my friends.

But, there’s is the chance that my hard work will all payoff, that when you read this, I’ll be the happy one, I’ll be the one trash talking and be well on my way to bragging rights.

After day one of the “second round,” though, that isn’t looking so good (lost two Sweet 16 teams, one of which I had going to the Elite Eight and went .500 on the day).

Let’s hope I’m wrong and it’s the sec-ond choice that prevails. Otherwise, I’m going to owe a co-worker a lunch and my Facebook page will become unbearable.

Now I remember why it is that I like basketball
