Winter Wonderland


The rain has finally arrived! The cold weather is setting in along with cozy blankets, hot chocolate, and lots of homework. Luckily, this past Monday was Blues Bridge Walk movie day, so students got to relax while watching their favorite films. The movie options were Great Gatsby, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Pitch Perfect, The Perks of Being Wallflower, Monsters University, and Blades of Glory. The students that raised enough money or brought in a number of donations got to watch two different movies and eat free pizza, while students who did not meet the donations still enjoyed a fun day filled with zumba, study hall, and yoga. My friends and I watched Pitch Perfect and Blades of Glory. I had seen Pitch Perfect and thought it was absolutely hilarious, but I had never seen Blades of Glory. I was extremely surprised with the plot of the movie because it was nothing I expected. First off, I thought it had something to do with a war, but I was totally off. Actually, it was a movie about two opposing ice skaters having to team up, after being banned from single ice skating. It was very funny, but also extremely awkward.
 
Aside from movie day, one of my favorite holidays is coming up: Thanksgiving! The whole month of November is a great time to reflect and be thankful, but also to spend time with family and eat loads of good food. It also means time off from school and is a friendly reminder that my birthday is just around the corner. I can’t wait to spend this Thanksgiving with the amazing sophomore class, and of course, the rest of the SMA family.
 
Have a great November!
