Last Topic of the Year, due by Sunday, June 7:

Perhaps its time to pick out some favorite memories of Pine Point. Let us know about three (or two, or one, or fifty) of your fond memories of your time at our school. Don't worry about choosing a favorite. Just describe a few good memories. (Feel free to do more than one post as memories come back to you.)

Remember to check the rubrics (to the right). Contributions to the forum can be brief, but must be well thought out and carefully written. No typos or grammar errors, please.

Gabe's Post

Upon reflection, the story "Sonny's Blues" struck me as an inspiring story. For example, for a convicted drug addict finding solace in something other then drugs is inspiring to begin with, but to actually be excellent at what he tried is phenomenal. Recovering from a drug like heroin is incredibly difficult and to learn a difficult instrument like the piano well is just as hard, so when combined, not only was Sonny's step in the right direction excellent but inspiring that he could accomplish two near impossible tasks.
