Editorials & Personal Columns

Ideas:
1. traffic & parking
2. review over new book or reading
3. school work, sleep, & athletic balance

I do not follow or read any columnist on a regular basis, but I'd like to start reading more. I've read some in magazines and seen some online that I really enjoy, so if I were to look into it, I could easily find a columnist that interests me.

In second grade, one of my closer friends was named Atticus, who now is a freshman at Bowie too. Being young, we were still very childish, so messing with each other was an every day occurrence. Sometimes we took our play a little too far, but I never minded, it was all fun and games. One day, we were completing an assignment that required teacher approval along the way, which meant that people were walking to and from their seats to our teacher a lot.
