I want to do a lot of drama/acting this year. Improv is fun also.

I love the things we did last year. I think that we should do a production, meaning play/musical. That would be awesome and if we presented that, then people would be more interested in Forensics in the years to come.

YOU RAWCK MS NERO!!!

It would be fun if we could do improv or charades or anything that has to do with drama.

I think that we should do something that will help us with for forensics, like doing a multiple of skits during the year

I think we should do more drama this year. Since last year we were still figuring everything out, and didn’t know what to do in the competition very well, I think we should come up with new ideas based on what we already know/ learned last year. Maybe we will do better this year. Hopfully we will beat byrd and moody.

We could list all the good and bad things about forensics, and then let them choose for themselves. List how it can help them in the future.

I think the theme should be monkeys, b/c they are so cute!

We could brainstorm some good and bad things about forensics then we could find out all the things everyone wants.Then we could on field things related to those things.

Go to Core classes and explain to them what forensics is all about

We should bring snacks like:
Chips
Soda
Baked Goods

I think we should do fund raisers, and use the money to have a pizza party. My dad could come in and be a guest speaker. He could talk about drama.

What about a car wash, or a bake sale for halloween?

I think to get more members, we should put it on the announcments. I think the theme should be butterflies. I think every meeting,someone different should bring a snack. I don’t know any field trip places to go. A good guest speaker would be a drama teacher from a high school.
A good idea for a fundraiser would be a bake sale.

For snacks, I would bring my Vanilla Munchies. Also cookies… Anything with sugar will work.

For field trips, lets go to the Fine Arts Museum and go to other places. We could also go to the Clay Center, which is a creative place in West Virginia.

People to come in… I HAVE NO IDEA!!!! Nobody in my family would fit that category.

Fund Raising would be fun! I don’t care what we do.

choose a person to do a certain week with drinks and another doing the food and switch off every week.

I think that Forensics will be a time to get to know each other, learn drama acts or skits, learn to express yourslef in many ways, take part in compertions, and have fun.I would like to see us learn differnet ways of frienship and learn new things. We can get others to join by puttting posater in the hallway, and make fun announcements in the morning, and show them what forensics is really about. I think that our theme this year should be FRIENDSHIP! Snacks can be fun and cute like cheese crakes, pizza bites,popcorn etc. Fieldtrips might include downtown pays or local plays. we can come up with small skits and plays. For funraising we can do skits and tell people what forensics is about and etc.

@w3s0m3gur1

I think we should go to like a field trip to:
a. Museum of Fine Arts
b. Baltimore Aquarium
c. Skate Nation
Pick which one that u want please.

AlexG

we could go to Broadway during a holiday week off

Shashi

We should put up posters all around the school and send an announcement to the main office to say in the begining of the day for people to hear.
For a theme we should use a play-book
snacks could be sweets and maybe some healthier things like carrots and ranch
field trips to theatre IV(theatre 4)
guests like play actors
fund raisers like talent shows

I would like to do more drama and less reciting. but thats just me you dont have listen……..read…..

16 10 2006
@w3s0m3gur1

I think that instead of spending the money on food, I REALLY think that drama needs some new props, b/c last yr,frankly,they had some REALLY poor props:)

16 10 2006
Ally W.

We should do more acting and improv as apposed to speaking and reciting. Poetry is cool too.

16 10 2006
@w3s0m3gur1

I’m getting pretty bored of writing and poetry from doing it through middle school.Also, drama and acting is what a lot of ppl like to do instead of just talking infront of ppl.

I think that Kayla’s idea about car washing and a bake sale is awsome

17 10 2006
Ally W.

I think it sounds like everyone is around the same idea of doing more acting and drama.

17 10 2006
@w3s0m3gur1

In addition to the fundraisers,I think that we should hold plays,like Deep Run, and charge like $5.00 per ticket, and do car washes charging about $10.00 for a normal car wash,and $15.00 for a waxing. we should also do bake sales. My mom can make some BIG brownies. Like the size of your fist and those would sell for at LEAST $1.00.

The Meal
by:Dennis J. Monos

In the middle of the night
The stars seem to shine
Yet the darkness still covers
The beasts as they dine..

The moon has it’s beauty
As it shines full and bright
But beware of what’s lurking
In the darkness of night…

You hear in the distance
A sound that can’t be real
The howling of a wolf
Coming to claim it’s meal…

Werewolves are just a legend
You thought as you walked faster
You had no way of knowing
You were headed for disaster…

That’s how it all started
Those twelve long years ago
Hunting down your victims
As the Full Moon starts to glow…

I dont really think we should have monkeys, or butterflys

I THINK WE SHOULD HAVE DRAGONS, OR TIGERS!!!!

~SCARY STORY~

Spirits of the Dead
by Edgar Allan Poe
(1829)

Thy soul shall find itself alone

‘Mid dark thoughts of the grey tomb-stone –

Not one, of all the crowd, to pry

Into thine hour of secrecy:

Be silent in that solitude

Which is not loneliness — for then

The spirits of the dead who stood

In life before thee are again

In death around thee — and their will

Shall then overshadow thee: be still.

For the night — tho’ clear — shall frown –

And the stars shall look not down,

From their high thrones in the Heaven,

With light like Hope to mortals given –

But their red orbs, without beam,

To thy weariness shall seem

As a burning and a fever

Which would cling to thee for ever :

Now are thoughts thou shalt not banish –

Now are visions ne’er to vanish –

From thy spirit shall they pass

No more — like dew-drop from the grass:

The breeze — the breath of God — is still –

And the mist upon the hill

Shadowy — shadowy — yet unbroken,

Is a symbol and a token –

How it hangs upon the trees,

A mystery of mysteries! –

ok,here’s MY poem:
Some things are scary 
Others are not,
Like ghosts and goblins,
And things that rot

Cats and dogs are not scary 
At all, 
All they do is play chase
And catch a ball.

But the scariest thing 
Creeps around at night, 
Looking for victims 
To scratch and bite.

It hides its face 
It’s too ugly to see, 
It rules all the monsters,
Both tall and wee.

Those who’ve seen his face,
Their eyes burst and bleed,
They beg for mercy 
“Spare us, spare us,” they plead.

But he’s not a giver 
He takes what he finds,
All sorts of people 
Both sightseers and blind.

You’ve got the picture,
That he is the king
Of everything scary, 
Every little scary thing.

So watch out at night ’cause if
By him you’re seen,
He’ll give you an evil grin
And say…

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

If you talk to core classes and talk about Forensics, or when you make any kind of poster or announcement, DO NOT TELL THEM ABOUT THE FOOD. OR ELSE IT WILL TURN OUT LIKE READING FIESTA-THEY HAD TONS OF PEOPLE BECASE THEY SAID THEY WOULD HAVE FOOD. Because while that could get you lots of new members, they would just goof off and not pay attention. They wouldn’t want to do anything but EAT ALL THE FOOD!!! AndI know that is NOt what you want. So don’t tell them untill they join. ALSO, I think that you should do more drama, like plays and lots of acting. I always get stage fright when I’m reading poetry, but when I’m acting, I just seem to be less afraid. We should do a bake sale.

Scary Things
Late at night when you are sleeping, 
that’s when creatures coma a creeping.
To your house these creatures slither
making sounds that make you shiver.
Scratching on your window pane
Whispering your own first name.
Tapping on the nearest door,
creaking stairs and floors and more.
Making you sit up in bed
or pull the covers o’er your head.
And while you sit there filled with fear,
you wish that Grampa Bob was here!
