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.

Thinking about it, the memories don't seem to come back as nicely constructed paragraphs at all, not even as poorly constructed paragraphs, but more like the lists that people have made, each one scrambling to climb over the one before it. So hear is a "brief" list of those memories. In no discernible order. Sorry.
  • Helping Tristan "The Hamburgler" make his way closer to God in the English hostel.
  • "Kimo, you just killed my hopes and dreams; I'll have respect for you tomorrow."
  • "Kimo, that's red, red is different."
  • "It's counter intuitive, it's a multistep process."
  • Being repeatedly typecast in plays.
  • Furbies on a Plane
  • Trail running with Mrs. Iacoi.
  • The big cave thing in the Ramparts in Carter Notch.
  • Tristan and everything one who saw him
  • Doc getting excited at a soccer game
  • Beating Cutler in soccer last fall
  • Science and History class with Doctor Tate
  • Having a history class about torture
  • "2 MINUTES!!"- Gabe
  • Puns
  • "Well, it's not easy, but it's fun to look at."- Ed Burger
  • Mrs. Cogan's opera
  • Advisory with Ms. Lozis
  • Mrs. Mitchell!

Kyle's Post

I really enjoy Ceilie's idea of listing a memory with everyone so I'm going list quotes from some of my favorite moments.

Sarah-(There are waaaaay too many for me to remember with you so i picked that time at Caroline's) "Kolt, wheres mom?" "Building a fort?"- "Ewww their like the webbing on the inside of your fingers."

Rashad-"NINJA!"

TY-"I make it beautiful." "I make it Sexy."

Tristan-"You have no right to be mad at me. You had an afro that means you had a responsibility."

Hannah-"I had to take a long pee, but then I had to cut it short."

Teddy-Just watching you absolutely decapitate your frog in 7th grade.

Ceilie-"Wow Mr. Mitchell the crickets didn't even show up for that one." (There are also no words for the time you broke the sink in 7th grade.)

Scarlet-"We are now in the womb of the giant snake and we will soon be exiting through the ___."-"I bash your face in!"

Gabe-"I just want to dance in a bowl of Cocacola."

Parker-"I'll keep my pants on for you Kyle." (In France)

Lydia-"They may sometimes be described as 'sneaky'. We don't know what they're up to."

Timmy-Watching you and Lydia use sign language during advisory.

Anna-"I didn't realize the pictures of sharks were going to be that funny." (Also I'm not positive it was you, but in like 5th grade I shared nicknames like "Soup" and "Shooku" with two other people)

Julie-"Conchita!!!"

Kimo-"I have so much respect for you right now." (France Boom)

Zack-"Kyle who do you think will rule the world first?" (this is from like 2nd grade w/ Christina)

Olivia-"I really wanna put eyeliner on you." (Awkward lol)

Eleanor-"Eleanor you, Zack, and I are all going to go over your house and watch Christina while she's competing in the Olympics."

Kate-"I wonder if theres a Hannah Montana for every race." (yes kate i realize i edited this a 'lil.)

Caroline-"You definitely have terrets and don't know it."

Wendell-"I always follow your models Mr. Salsich." (Wasn't actually there, but heard about it)

Ceilie's Post

After ten long years of attending Pine Point with all of my classmates, there is not enough time in the world or space in this text box to even begin describing all of the laughable, enjoyable, emotional and incredible memories I have made with all twenty one of them. So instead, I decided to choose a special memory (but certainly not the only one) that I have always and will always remember them by. 

Anna- Attempting to order Thai food and lacking basic social skills in the process 
Caroline-All the hayrides at your Halloween party...and this year when my dad sat in the part on the bulldozer where dirt and stuff would go...that was interesting. (You thought I was going to say Chasing Geese weren't you?)
Eleanor- Kidz Bop-ing on the ride home from that lacrosse game
Gabe-Ceremony of the Keys and then your post-ceremony "Third Wind" and you occasionally pretending to be a revolving door in Math class
Hannah-All those times we studied French in Doc's Office...
Julie- You and Clement interacting in general in France was one of the funniest things I have ever seen...and all the things he yelled in English
Kate-That sleepover at your house a few summers ago when we played Rose Bud and Thorn. "Rose, well you're loud. Um, Bud, you could work on being quieter and Thorn, you're loud."
Kimo-You and Anna singing "How to Raise a Child" (I know I wasn't really a part of that but it was a real treasure)
Kyle- Making that movie at Ethan's house with the Monk call...and the image of you playing Nerf guns with Adrien
Lydia-.....that time you texted me as I was writing your tribute was sorta funny...I guess?
Olivia-French class...enough said
Parker-Every M.M.A.D meeting in the underground lair ever...and pretending to be riding bicycles when we really weren't in England
Rashad- You, me and Lydia singing the "Castle on a Cloud" solo (This actually only happened in my dreams, but it will become a reality one day) 
Sarah- Talent Show of '05 when The Cheetah Girls performed their first and final concert
Scarlet-Me in a homemade fat suit+ ball+ weird kids from across the road+blind person glasses=uncomfortable (literally) situation 
Teddy-Painting those dot pictures in second grade (not quite sure if you remember this one but I sure do. It was awesome.)
Timmy-That time way back when when you taught me how to drive the Gator (Don't tell Lydia but she was merely an assistant while you were the true teacher.)
Tristan-No words. 
Ty-A little something called "LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL" I don't know if you've ever heard of it but for some reason it makes me think of you.
Wendell-FCD After Hours Partay!
Zack- That time in Ms. Lozis' advisory when you fell in out of your chair

Scarlet's Memories

As many of us have said I have so many wonderful memories that I could not possibly right them all down. Thus, I will talk about one of my favorite of this past year. For dinner one night on our trip to Martha's Vineyard we got pizza and went out to Gayhead Beach. As the sun was setting we all chowed down devouring $300 worth of pizza in 10 minutes. (Probably our best record yet) Stuffed to the brim, we began making our way down to the beach, some of us by piggy back, some of us "parkouring" and some of us walking and talking slowly. When we made it down to the beach it was a breathtaking sight. The gorgeous orange sun was colliding with the dark blue ocean. We all were talking and laughing (and missing Eleanor=(...) It was probably one of the best memories of the Class of 2009 but there are so many others that come close!
