Election2012YouShouldKnowThings
Ignorance
may usually be bliss,
but as many of us are tran-
sitioning into the adult world, it’s
kind of important that we know things.
If we hope to survive as artists in a heavily
competitive nation, we need to know how to make informed decisions,
both in everyday life and in politics. This year, that principle rings
especially true as we are faced with the choice between
two starkly contrasting Presidential candidates whose
visions for the United States point in almost exactly
different directions. Are you still reading this? Look,
all right, I admit that listening to people talk for
more than 30 seconds without some kind of
dubstep remix or reality show testimonial in-
terrupting them is really boring, but come on.
We’re picking the President, you guys! Lit-
erally, the most powerful person in the free
world, we choose. Would it kill you to maybe
read about the differences between the two
men we have to choose from? That means
actually understanding which candidate
holds which positions, not making a deci-
sion because your parents vote one way
or because “uh...the economy,” or because
you heard some homeless guy on the bus
say that Obama is listening to our conver-
sations through microbes in our food. You
also can’t play the “I can’t vote so it doesn’t
matter” card, because if you’re at HSPVA,
you’re either 18 or will be by the time the next
election rolls around, and it will help to see
whether the winning candidate this year lives
up to his word over the next 4 years. Paper*
has made this really easy for you guys: We’ve
laid out the positions of both candidates on a vari-
ety of issues. Please read them.

2. HSPVAMockElection
Art and politics: the two are so dif-
ferent, yet they are intrinsically linked. For
years, the two have battled it out as polar
opposites on the intellectual spectrum: One
is idealistic and pure, seeking to change
things, however slightly, for the better. The
other is politics.
Now the two will finally meet at this
school’s mock election, as the artists are
forced to consider politics, and cast their
votes for president.
This is not to say that politics is a for-
gotten part of the daily life of a PVA student.
Perhaps more than at any other school,
politics, awareness, and genuine concern
for actual issues are in the forefront of every
students’ actions: While other high-school-
ers (apparently not a real word) would be
comparing shoes, the average PVA student
can be found discussing a political debate or
the issue of funding for education.
I would like to say this mock election
is a tossup (apparently a real word), but that
would be a lie; most of our population sup-
ports the Democratic Party. There are defi-
nite exceptions, but they are few and far be-
tween (or whatever that saying is). I predict
that our current pool of voters would con-
tinually re-elect Barrak Obama if they could.
Not to say that the students aren’t thinking
about their decisions, but it is not as easy as
you’d think.
From the students that I asked, sur-
prisingly, 4 out of 12 students considered
themselves independent. When asked to
specify, they said that there were definitely
good points made by both candidates and
both political parties. Neither is perfect, and
both are far from it. They said that their vot-
ing decision was going to be tough (not mak-
ing this up), but all of them favored Obama
over Romney. Another 7 out of the 12 were
hardcore liberals, and the last of the 12 said
that it did not matter, and that he was not
concerned.
However this unnamed student feels
about the election, he is definitely the minor-
ity in the opinionated student body of the
school, a fact I am proud of. It was great talk-
ing to my peers about the election, because
they know what they’re talking about, and
you can’t fool them. They will make great, in-
formed (slightly art-biased) citizens one day.
Until then, “Mock on, mock on...”

debt by $200 billion in ten years.
• Requires larger companies to have health insurance plans for employ-

• Makes health insurance equal and inclusive, with no discrimination
based on gender, race, income, etc.
• Provides and subsidizes insurance for people with pre-existing cond-
tions and includes children with these conditions (like chronic illness) on

What’s impor-
tant here is that you un-

implications of this act:
It will affect your life.
It’s a divisive issue that
touches almost every
resident of the U.S. It
is already a law. Keep
yourself updated and
informed--don’t take
my overly simplified
word for granted. Go
read about it! Look and

not you find this new
policy a step forward or
backward.

GettingInsideofObamacare:
First, a few basics: the phrase “Obamacare” can
be broken down to Obama and Health Care (or, if you’re
the campaign’s twitter manager, “Obama Cares”). Most
of you are aware of this. The term refers specifically to a
bill signed into law in early 2010: The Patient Protection
and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). This mini article is go-
ing to try and take an enormous issue full of nuance and
detail, and compress its legislation into 10 bullet points
for your reading pleasure.
I want to preface this with a warning: I have not
read the bill itself. It’s made up of more than 900 pages
of jargon and mish-mashed information about specific tax
codes and income levels. Frankly, I doubt even the politi-
cians who voted it through Congress have read the whole
thing. I gathered information from unbiased, government
resources, but also looked at propaganda from the lib-
eral and conservative perspectives. I’m going to attempt
a very simple, relatively unbiased breakdown of the most
important and close-to-home parts of this act, things that
you and your family should be aware of, and which will
most certainly affect you in one way or another. So here
goes!
VOTE:
SilenceIsConsentByEllisaBray
With the upcoming
election, not a day goes by
in which politics is not the
topique de jour, whether it is
in the news, on the radio, or
even in our own homes. How-
ever, with extremely low vot-
ing percentages in America,
many people’s voices simply
aren’t being heard. Not only is
voting one of the best ways to
inform local and national rep-
resentatives of public opinion
on issues that directly affect
constituents, it is a citizen’s
duty to his country to vote.
Especially in an age when
decisions made on a national
scale have a lasting effect on
people’s rights and freedom.
The United States was
built on the premise that gov-
ernment may not act without
the consent of those being
governed. The desire for
this method of government
was one of the fundamen-
tal ideas that sparked the
American Revolution, and
the guarantee of this right
is now held in the Twen-
ty-Fourth Amendment. In
the present day, however,
people have gradually de-
clined to exercise their
right to vote for various
reasons: apathy toward the
government and/or politi-
cal policies, lack of educa-
tion about today’s politics,
or simply the belief that
knowledge about politics
does not matter until one
is old enough to vote. The
truth is that eligible voters
between the ages of 18-24
vote the least of any age
bracket, and are the least
knowledgeable about politics.
Another fact is this: While
our generation is the least likely
to vote, we are the most likely to
be affected by political decisions
put into effect. Soon it will be our
tax money that pays for higher
education for the next genera-
tion and our decisions that will
determine the world our children
will live in. Regardless of which
politician you support and which
issues you feel are most impor-
tant to you, the government can-
not support your opinion if it is
not made known. Being able to
speak and choosing not to do so
is a disservice that has lasting
repercussions, not only for you
but also for others. Not voting is
silent consent, and we cannot be
silent about matters that will de-
termine the fate of our world.
ImportantThings:
• Requires all citizens to have some sort of health insur-
ance. This means that if you are not covered by Med-
icaid (for folks with low income), Medicare (for the el-
derly), or an employer-granted health plan, and are not
exempted by special circumstances, you must obtain
some form of government-approved private health insur-
ance.
• Allows kids to stay under their parents’ insurance poli-
cies until they are 26. The kids don’t have to live in their
parents’ home or be financially dependent on them to
receive this benefit.
• Raises the Medicare tax by .9% and creates a new
3.8% tax on unearned income (inherited, property value,
etc.) for the very wealthy.

4. This recipe is one of our all-time fa-
vorites, and it’s a great one for fall! We rec-
ommend eating these scrumdidlyumptious
cookies right out of the oven. You can use
the microwave to reheat them if you need to;
warm is best. They taste like a profession-
ally made mixture of caramel and chocolate
inside of a cinnamon sugar coated cookie,
when actually they are
nearly EFFORTLESS.
Before we made them
the first time, Gina was
nervous that the combi-
nation of flavors wouldn’t
work, but now they are
her favorite cookies!
Don’t be afraid of this
unique recipe.
You’ll need:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup shortening
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
extract
2 3/4 cups all-purpose
flour
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
A 12 oz bag of Rolo candies
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Cream together butter, shortening, 1 1/2
cups sugar, the eggs, and the vanilla. Blend
in the flour, cream of tartar, soda and salt.
Shape dough by rounded spoonfuls into
balls.
Mix the 2 tablespoons sugar and the cinna-
mon in a plate or bowl. Wrap dough around
a Rolo (one Rolo per cookie). Roll balls of
dough and Rolos in mixture. Place 2 inches
apart on ungreased baking sheets.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes, or until set but not
too hard. Remove immediately from baking
sheets.
Enjoy thoroughly :)

1963: Hundreds of thousands march on
Washington where Martin Luther King Jr. de-
livers the historic “I Have a Dream” speech.
1971: People across the United States
march in protest against the Vietnam War.
1989: Half a million protest in Tiananmen
Square in China against the country’s Com-
munist regime. Hundreds are killed; thou-
sands are injured.
1995: The NAACP organizes a “Million Man
March,” which brings to the political forefront
the economic and social ills plaguing the Af-
rican American community.
2001: Demonstrations are held all over the
world to pay tribute to the victims of the Sep-
tember 11th attacks.
2012: Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day is held;
everybody eats at Chick-fil-A.
On July 2, 2012, Chick-fil-A President
Dan Cathy was interviewed by the Biblical
Recorder, a faith-centered weekly newspa-
per based in North Carolina. The interview
highlighted Chick-fil-A’s policy of basing its
business on biblical principles. During that
interview, Mr. Cathy was questioned about
the company’s support of the “traditional
family.” He responded: “We are very much
supportive of the family -- the biblical def-
inition of the family unit. We are a family-
owned business, a family-led business, and
we are married to our first wives. We give
God thanks for that.”
This was the catalyst for Chick-fil-A-
Gate 2k12, a national uproar in which ev-
eryone with access to a social networking
soapbox felt an incredible compulsion to
state his opinion on this pressing matter.
All other stories were rendered irrelevant.
2012 presidential election? Boring. Higgs
boson discovery? Psh. Nerds. A fast-food
restaurant that’s closed on Sundays doesn’t
support gay marriage? Event of the millen-
nium. And so began the two-to-three weeks
of the most free publicity Chick-fil-A could
ever dream of. Supporters of LGBT equal-
ity boldly chose to spend their 5 dollars at
some other fast-food restaurant from that
point on (and post about it on Facebook). In
response to this, supporters of Chick-fil-A’s
position gathered together and instituted a
“Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day” to be held on
August 1st. When that day came, the afore-
mentioned supporters also made a bold
statement by... eating fried chicken. In fact,
August 1st set a new record for Chick-fil-A’s
sales.
Welcome to America, where your po-
sition on the political spectrum is defined by
what fried chicken you eat.

6. All of us have ideas of these grand
things we want to do, but I recently learned
that one of the most rewarding things you
can do is actually live these ideas out. Back
in April, I remarked to a friend: “Hey Chris
we should write plays and produce them.” A
simple sentence, but one that grew. Before
long, our plays had been written, then sum-
mer came and we casted the plays and had
directors. Before we knew it, we had begun
rehearsing. The idea had taken off and burst
into reality. “What should we call this event?”
“Two plays on a roof!” “No...” “Explosion of
theatricality!“ “Where are you getting these
ideas?” Eventually we settled on “Leave the
Lights On: An Evening of Sordid Sophistica-
tion.”
We found an old storage room, cov-
ered in trash, where we rehearsed these
works that exclusively belonged to us. There
were problems, so many problems. Problems
and problems and problems. The set was
breaking; an actor wasn’t memorized; I hadn’t
had my coffee yet. But in the end, it was all
so unimportant; in the end, we had two solid
pieces of art that had never been seen
outside of those who had put it togeth-
er. And when opening night came, I sat
on the roof where we were performing
and looked up at the blue moon. The
Houston skyline that hovered over us
reminded me that, although I am just
a small piece in the puzzle, I can still
create this grand product. My advice
to you: Go out and do it; don’t just talk
about it. Make it happen no matter how
big “it” is. It is the most rewarding thing,
creating your own play or concert or
event or whatever. Don’t let fear or la-
ziness get in your way. No one ever did
anything spectacular by sitting on his
couch.

Are you a senior, junior, sophomore, or even
freshmen looking at your past wardrobe
thinking, “Did I really think hipster glasses
were cool?” or “I can’t believe I dyed my hair
firetruck red!”? I’m here to tell you to em-
brace those embarrassing moments! They
made you feel cool and they’re helping you
now as well. You may wonder how these
torturous thoughts that keep you up at night
helping you in any way. Well, they are slow-
ly but surely evolving you into the cool per-
son that you are. I personally love all these
supposedly called “mistakes” people make
because they make PVA, well, PVA. I know
I’ve had my share of raccoon eyes, Con-
verse that I try to make worn out and cool by
purposefully throwing in mud, and blue and
pink colored hair extensions, so I could say
I’m in the same boat as many of you.
Some people reading this might be thinking,
“I’ve never had feathers in my hair or put a
tail on my pants just to use as an every day
accessory. Is there something wrong with
me?” No, nothing is wrong with you except
that you won’t have the experience of sitting
and laughing (or deep inside really scream-
ing in utter terror) with your children while
looking at your old high school pictures they
found hidden underneath your bed. What
I’m trying to tell you to do is go out there
and experiment with your true style. Wear
all the clothes you like and feel comfortable
in as well as things that you love but are
too scared to wear. So go into your closet
when you come home and take out that cool
sweater you thought was “too loud,” those
cool boots, or those colored pants and wear
them tomorrow.

DearHSPVALove,
Coming here to HSPVA, I left a lot: everyone that I loved,
including my boyfriend. Now he rarely texts me, and when I go see
him at his school he’s never super smiley about it or happy I came.
But he’s a shy person as it is. He says he just doesn’t have a lot of
time anymore, but he still has the same feelings. We are really good
for each other though, and I really don’t want to give up and lose all
that we had. I’m just not sure what to do. I just want to see him more
and be happy again but without seeming high maintenance. Am I
clingy? What should I do?
Sincerely,
HopelesslyConfused
DearHopelesslyConfused,
Hey! I’m Ze SA (Cassandra Galindez), and can say that I’ve
been through the exact same situation. It seemed hard and con-
fusing, but to tell you the truth, it was actually a lot simpler than I
thought. All these feelings that you have bottled up are totally nor-
mal, and he might be feeling the same way as you. The best thing
to do is to talk to him. You should both communicate with each
other and just be honest. Communication is key. You might find that
talking it over will leave you with a confident decision: To stay or to
leave. You can stay and work it out little by little (communication is
key!), or you can put it to rest for now and see if you guys wanna try
again in the future.
ZeSA
P.S. In my issue, I decided to move on because the guy I was with
was also very “unsmiley” about it, and for me, I felt as though he
didn’t care or attempt to try with me as much as I would have liked
him to. So, I ended up with Robert (Bobby Earth, who is also doing
this column), and I must say I’m much happier now. Sometimes this
stuff happens for a reason.
DearHSPVALove,
My friend is dating some other guy, but I like her. How do I tell
her I like her without ruining our friendship or making it awkward?
Anonymous
DearAnonymous,
If it’s a strong enough friendship, then it won’t be ruined. Alas,
it’s an awkward situation to begin with, so I’m not sure if you can
really avoid the awkwardness, but you should still tell her ASAP if
you really do like her. The sooner the better because the longer you
wait, the more your feelings will continue to eat you up inside ev-
ery time you’re with her (and THAT would be some-
thing actually harmful to your friendship). Plus,
you don’t want to beat yourself up about it
later on as she continues to further the re-
lationship she’s just started. Speak now
or forever hold your peace.
BobbyEarth
P.S. Don’t ever lose hope,
but never lose yourself
either. There are plenty
o’ monkeys in
the jungle.

Bob Dylan returns to the music scene with his latest album,
Tempest. (Yes, that is the title of Shakespeare’s last play.) In this
album, Dylan returns to his grassroots with songs reminiscent of
“Nashville Skylines.” Although his voice has
grown old and gravely, there’s still enough
tone to make a melody. One song off this
album that will make you want to turn out
the lights, grow a beard, and grab a bottle
of whiskey is “Soon after Mid- night.” With
its soft brushes on the snare drum and its
heart wrenching lyrics of soli- tude and ob-
servation, it can put anyone to sleep under
a Nashville skyline. This album is great for
anyone into 60’s Country/Folk and Root music searching for good
songs with a modern, mature touch.
Edward Sharpe’s sophomore al-
bum, Here, has brought a new world of
male falsettos, group harmonies, and
campfire hymns to the ever-changing
music scene. The opening song, “Man on
Fire,” sounds like Leonard Cohen spent
a week with a hippie commune, where
he met a young Nick Drake, who went to
dinner with Pete Seeger, and then they
all got thrown into a time portal which
landed them here to make this album (all
with luminous beards, clothes made of
hemp, and acoustic guitars of course). The Zeros didn’t leave us
waiting for too long after their first album, Up from Below, and they
still managed to create an all-around cheerful, well written group of
songs that make up the new album, “Here.”
Animal Collective really is the definition of a modern psy-
chedelic band, and Centipede Hz is an album Roky Erickson
would have written if he had been born in 1980. A few tracks in,
I wasn’t too impressed--that is, until “Rosie Oh” started playing in
my headphones. With little common mu-
sical structure to the untrained ear, and
with the utilization of synthesizers and re-
verb, “Rosie Oh” will make you feel as if
you’re floating through the mind and con-
sciousness of Venus. If you’re looking for
an acoustic record that you can relate to
and understand every word of, don’t buy
this album. If you’re looking for a pure
psychedelic trip with music and melody,
this is a must buy on all accounts.
Breaking news! The biggest Yeezy fan in the school is not blown away by the
new G.O.O.D. Music release. Sidebar for the uninformed: G.O.O.D. Music (Getting
Out Our Dreams) is both a record label and an all-star collective of artists (Pusha
T, Big Sean, KiD CuDi, Common, etc.) signed under Kanye West. Now I wouldn’t
go so far as to say I’m
disappointed, simply
because Cruel Sum-
mer is exactly what I
expected: a compila-
tion of mostly trap mu-
sic, catered to the cur- rent state of mainstream hip-hop, but disguised as
something greater because, duh, it’s G.O.O.D. Music.
Consequent- ly, this mainstream rap album sounds like one that
will only be worth lis- tening to in 2012. The bandwagon fans should be
thrilled with this one; true Kanye/G.O.O.D. followers like me won’t have
so much of a field day. Sure, Kanye and the gang do trap music better than
the originators; sure, there are a select few “exception” tracks on the al-
bum; unfortunately, neither of these factors could save Cruel Summer
from my not-so-cruel 2 ½ out of 5 paper clips.
Standout tracks:
- New God Flow.1 feat. Kanye West, Pusha T & Ghostface Killah
- The One feat. Kanye West, Big Sean, 2 Chainz, & Marshia Ambrosius

9. iSideWith.com might just be the best
thing to happen to the internet--ever. On
iSideWith.com you can take a quiz that de-
termines which presidential candidate you
side with most! After the quiz you’ll be given
a breakdown of your results that includes
how similar your views are to those of each
candidate and each party. The quiz is a little
bit long, but if you take the time to rank how
important each issue is to you, look at the
“Choose another stance” option, and click
“Show more questions” every time, you are
going to get a much more accurate result
that really reflects your political views. It is
the perfect website for absolutely everyone,
and here’s why:
-This website is perfect if you really
just don’t know much about any of the can-
didates, and you’d like to see which ones
have the most similar political views to you.
The website makes it very easy for people
with little knowledge of politics to get a feel
for where they fall on the political spectrum.
-If you’ve been raised as a Democrat
or a Republican, but you’re not really sure
how much that truly aligns with your person-
al political views, this website can help you
see just how much of a Democrat or Repub-
lican you really are.
-If you dislike both of the main party candi-
dates in this race and wish that there were
someone running with views more similar to
yours, this website could help you find that
candidate!
And if that doesn’t persuade you,
the website also has a “Compare the Can-
didates” section that puts the views of any
two of the candidates side-by-side (includ-
ing candidates from the Libertarian, Green,
Justice, and Constitution parties). It is a re-
ally fast and simple way to find out how each
candidate feels about almost all of the main
issues.
No matter if you are a political junkie
or totally indifferent when it comes to poli-
tics, you should go on this website and take
this quiz. There’s no reason not to! Take the
quiz and prove to the world that we’re not
just another generation of “apathetic” teen-
agers.

CNN wins out for me as far
as straight up hard hitting facts
are concerned for the election,
but what’s important to realize is
that the mainstream news media
can’t be completely relied upon.
We have so many news sources
to get our information from these
days that it has created this race
to be the first to have the story
out, regardless of what the real
facts are. It can get overwhelming,
never knowing who is telling the
truth. But never fear! Most news
stories are easy to fact check; just
enlist Google and dig a little deep-
er. Never take someone’s word for
it; always do your own research
before cementing an opinion.
What Fox does well:
Economic issues are
definitely the strong point
of Fox News. They provide
logical and often times emo-
tionally removed reports and
theories that really do sup-
ply just the facts. Fox also
famously and controversial-
ly supplies us with a large
number of strong, highly
educated female commen-
tators and anchors. (Don’t
let the massive amounts of
make-up and pageant hair
fool you, these women are
killers.) Fox also has quality
hard news, but it does often
leave a little something to be
desired. Another main focus
of Fox News is domestic is-
sues, which is great during
an election year!
What Fox doesn’t do well:
In theory, Fox News
really does do a relatively
good job of balancing their
programming with both
conservative and liberal
commentators and guests;
however, Fox News does a
terrible job of controlling their
guests. Their “political dis-
cussions” become full blown
wars that result in more time
being spent breaking them
up than actually providing
valuable insights.
What CNN does well:
For hard news, CNN is the
place to go. They deliver timely and
accurate news updates with little to
no bias involved. Like Fox News, they
are large and respected. Thus, they
have the connections to get stories
out fast and to give exclusive inter-
views with the individual candidates
as well as other important leaders.
What CNN doesn’t do well:
CNN has invested much more
time and energy into expanding their
international programming than their
domestic, and they’ve done a good
job with it. Unfortunately, domestic
stories are often times lacking be-
cause of this, and in an election year
those are the most important.

Eh. I guess…let’s be real though,
this is just a really bad TV se-
ries with tons of sex and mystery
added on to make you feel like
you’re not wasting your time. I
mean, really, a story centered on
a haunted apartment complex?
How boring. And if you didn’t get
that already from the unbeliev-
ably cheesy title (WOAH 666
THAT’S THE DEVIL SCARY),
then you’ll probably get it after
watching it for 9 minutes and
realizing that not only is the dia-
logue absolutely terrible, but so
is the acting (“Why would anyone
ever want to leave here?!” “As I
understand it Mr. Hartwell moved
s o m e w h e r e … WA R M E R . ” )
Elementary
Let me put it this way; if you’ve
watched BBC’s Sherlock and love it
to pieces like I do, it’s probably best
to stay away. Elementary is a great,
modern twist on the classic Sherlock
Holmes, but you’ll be annoyed know-
ing that it’s basically a huge rip-off of
the BBC series, and you won’t be able
to stop comparing it. If you haven’t
watched Sherlock already, then this
might just be the show for you. Lucy
Liu (who plays a female version of
John Watson- Joan Watson) and
Johnny Lee Miller (who plays Sher-
lock Holmes, a recovering addict) are
both fantastic actors, and although the
show is kind of rough right now, I have
high hopes for its future. It’s smart, it’s
action packed, and the dynamic be-
tween Joan and Sherlock is amazing.
The Mindy Project
YES. FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS GOOD IN THIS
WORLD, WATCH THIS. I cannot remember the last time
I’ve laughed so hard while watching a show. Mindy Kaling
(who plays the lead character, Mindy Lahiri, an OB/GYN
struggling with
her love life) is
absolutely hys-
terical in this
series. I didn’t
really think she
was anything
special from
watching her
in The Office,
but after see-
ing the pilot of this show and reading on her Twitter that
she has a celebrity crush on Benedict Cumberbatch, I
gained so much respect for her. And the show is just so
fresh- from the way it’s filmed to the plot, it’s just fantas-
tic. Give this show a shot, I definitely think it’s a keeper.

CNN“The Worldwide Leader in News” Overview:

10. It is the dawn of a new era. An era
of shattered dreams and heartbreak where
third year students of HSPVA mysteriously
find themselves cowering in the corners of
their rooms, rocking back and forth in the
fetal position. An era too terrible to call by
its true title, so for purposes of this article,
it shall merely be referred to as the “Year-
Which-Must-Not-Be-Named.”
Since we were wee freshmen we
were told chilling bedtime stories about the
Year-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. Senior
veterans shared their tales of woe, all the
while fighting back tears and struggling to
find the words to fully express the horror of
what they’d been through. Being naïve low-
erclassmen, we paid no heed to these warn-
ings, and instead went about our daily lives
completely unaware that we would soon be
thrown to the wolves.
Now I know it may feel futile, and
you’d much rather surrender, but there are
ways to beat this monster:
Get a sense of humor, and fast. If you can’t
laugh at your mistakes, you’ll drown.
Although the Year-Who-Must-Not-Be-
Named does the best it can to brutally mur-
der your social life, find time for your friends,
because you need them now more than
ever.
Create a “Keep Calm and Pass” play-
list with music that relaxes you and will pre-
vent you from pulling out massive chunks of
your hair. (Enya is strongly encouraged.)
Madly dance around your
room any chance you get! Screw
stress balls, this is the most ef-
fective stress reliever on the
planet.
Go outside. As corny as
this sounds, a bit of fresh air can
make all the difference.
Don’t procrastinate – who am
I kidding? Birds are gonna fly,
teenagers are gonna procrasti-
nate. It’s a law of nature.
If you see one of your fel-
low classmates on the verge of
a nervous breakdown, don’t just
stand there awkwardly, but offer
them some support. NO SOL-
DIER LEFT BEHIND!
There is no denying that
this school year will be a long
and difficult battle… and there
may be times when you will want
to raise that white flag. But you
listen here: the Class of 2014 is
many things, but we are not cowards. So
draw your pens, tighten your grip on your
flashcards, and prepare to kick the Year-
Who-Must-Not-Be-Named in its metaphori-
cal a**!

11. Advice is an odd thing that comes in
many forms. There’s the friendly reminder,
the suggestive hint, the philosophical mono-
logue, et cetera. It’s everywhere in every
form. You’ve probably encountered a good
bit of it in your life. And if you’re a freshman
here at PVA, or even a sophomore or a ju-
nior (any type of new student, really) you’re
about to encounter a good bit more.
You have just entered The High
School for the Performing and Visual Arts,
home of extraordinary artists, enchanting in-
structors, tremendous talent, awesome ad-
ministrators… and the advice capital of the
world. I’m serious guys. Just look around.
It’s trememdously encouraging how all of
the people here desperately want to give
you their wisdom to help make your life eas-
ier. You are so lucky and fortunate to be sur-
rounded by people like this. It’s a beautiful,
beautiful thing that opens up a world of pos-
sibilities.
So my advice? Be careful with ad-
vice. It can get in your way.
Yes, ladies and gents, I have just
majorly contradicted myself - but for good
reason. Please, allow me to elaborate: I
am a sophomore level two Theatre design
student here at PVA. As I write this article,
I have exactly one year and two full weeks
experience at this school. In other words, I’m
sorry if the seat is warm, but I was just sit-
ting in the exact same spot as you. I remem-
ber walking in, eager for the wise words of
upper-classmen to guide me through fresh-
man-ism. Wise words I did find, for everyone
had something to offer. Seniors said, “Try
new things.” Juniors said, “You’ll get used
to it.” Sophomores said, “Don’t judge.” And
the entire Theatre department said, “Turn in
your hours!!” And so, I went with it. However,
things didn’t quite go as I planned...
A summary: The more new things
I tried, the more stressed out and over-
whelmed I got. The more stressed out and
overwhelmed I got, the harder PVA life was
to get used to. The harder this life was to get
used to, the more judgments I made. And
the more judgments I made, the harder it
was to remember to turn in my hours (not to
mention my Paper* articles)! And here I was
thinking there was something wrong with
me because the advice wasn’t working. Au
contraire…
You see, I wasn’t giving myself a
chance to figure it out on my own, to make
things work more specifically for me. In the
process of attempting to speed my own
growth, I was actually stunting it, a fault even
more terrible than forgetting to turn in my as-
signments. But, if you think that strictly ad-
hering to every piece of advice you receive
will make your high school life easier, GO
FOR IT! Do what you think will work, and ad-
minister advice as needed – dose by dose.
I swear you’ll thank yourself, maybe even
discover something new about yourself that
you never knew was there.
So, this is Natalia Kian, Sophomore
Advice Doctor, signing off and sending a
warm welcome to all you brand new pa-
tients. And I wish the best of luck and good
advice to all those who dare to receive it.

I am a person of routine and

Kindergarten, celebrated the same

in the same spot every morning;
however, the injustices committed
within the student parking lot deny
me this consistency.
Clingy, overprotective par-
ents occupy the narrow parking
spaces until they see their children
make it safely through the door.
The yellow lines that define the
spaces are ignored by students
who are on the cusp of detention,
can’t be late another morning, and
therefore, park sloppily. What was
once a sacred temple of teenage
congregation, symbolic of adult-
hood, has now been degraded
to an overcrowded wasteland in
which students are thrust back into
subservience to both parents and
school. Parents: Don’t hang out in

Libra: The influence of Venus should cause a certain someone to share his or her
feelings about you. Go for it! Perhaps invite that person to that Halloween party
you’re oh-so-excited about.
Scorpio: Saturn will enter your sign around the 6th, inspir-

Sagittarius: Mars will re-energize you on the 8th. Put

Capricorn: Some bad advice is in the stars for you this

Aquarius: Drama will be getting you down. Stop that! Take
a day trip to Galveston one weekend. Get away from it all and go chill out on the beach, but try and avoid any flesh-eating bacteria.
That would suck.
Pisces: Tensions run high in your household. Work on articulating your feelings. Don’t just go angsty teenager on their butts screaming
that you hate everyone. That helps no one.
Aries: That new person in your life? Bad news. Things in your life may be going missing, and it is not a coincidence. He or she may be
fun to be around, but take it from me: Kleptomaniacs make for poor friends.
Taurus: Your planner is packed full of deadlines, but don’t let it get you down. Maybe you should rethink applying to seventeen colleges
or whatever that nonsense is. Don’t make things harder for yourself. Chill. Out.
Gemini: Don’t be so afraid to be impulsive; allow a new friend to teach you how to cut loose a little. Seize the moment! Audition for the
Halloween Happening if that’s what you really want to do. Don’t let a little stage fright keep you from doing something you’ll regret not
doing later.
Cancer: This just got real. School is overwhelming, but don’t be afraid to ask for help. Look into extra credit options. It isn’t grade grub-
bing; it’s getting the GPA you need for your dream school.
Leo: A friend is in need, so lend them a hand. Loan them the Ballard notes from the class they missed, and maybe they’ll help you
study for that Chemistry test that you are so not prepared for.
Virgo:Old habits die hard, but that doesn’t mean they doesn’t die. It’s time to move on.
