Good things come in pairs: sampling the island's best food and drink combos
Photo by Sean Michael Hower, design by Chris Skiles
March 25, 2011 | 10:23 AM
Milk and cookies. Burgers and shakes. Wine and cheese. To say food goes well with drinks is an epic understatement. Adding the right sippable to your munchable catapults your culinary experience from mundane to spectacular. And that doesn't only apply to fine dining—it's a philosophy that works for all kinds of meals.
The trick is not only finding complementary tastes, but also understanding the interplay of contrasting flavors, as well as the aroma and texture of the food and drink. Wine, famously, has an almost infinite number of pairing possibilities, but beer—particularly craft beer—is gaining a reputation of its own, as are spirits and cocktails, which help stimulate the appetite. And, of course, for the non-drinkers there's juice, tea, coffee and, well, any liquid you can pour down your gullet.
So sit back, tie a napkin around your neck and let the combined palates of the island's food and beverage industry experts and MauiTime's hungry staff guide you through three meals' worth of engaging epicurean twosomes.
Eggs Benedict & Mimosa
The mimosa is the perfect excuse to drink before noon. This light, bubbly and crisply intoxicating version of orange juice balances out the rich hollandaise and poached egg over toast combo better than plain fresh-squeezed ever could. - Jen Russo

Crepe & Smoothie
Switzerland crepe (vegetarian with tomato, asparagus, zucchini, sweet corn and cheese) and a tropical Maui smoothie (strawberry, banana, pineapple, mango and papaya). Fresh perfection. - Rolf Egli, Owner, Swiss Cafe, Lahaina
Also found at: Cafe Des Amis, Paia
Coffee (Or Tea)
& Fresh Baked Goods
There's nothing better than French roast and a warm crisp croissant. Of course, for some it's latte and banana bread, chai and a muffin or any number of other combinations. What we all agree on is that a hot beverage goes well with the tender crumble of oven-fresh baked goods. - JR

Pancakes & Coffee
The taro 'cakes come salved with a "mac-nilla" sauce so good, it stands to strike "syrup" from the dictionary altogether. Wash it down with good ol' drip coffee and when you're pau with your first cup, just help yourself to refills. Round it all out when your brunch mate heads off to refill his coffee by stealing a bite of his Haleakala breakfast burrito. - Anu Yagi
Find it at: North Shore Cafe, Haiku; Tasty Crust, Wailuku; Sea House, Lahaina; Kihei Cafe, Kihei
El Gringo & Bloody Mary
The classic breakfast—eggs your way, bacon, hash browns—with the classic breakfast drink. Get a side of pancakes to indulge, then eat the celery to convince yourself you're being healthy. - Jacob Shafer
Find it at: Milagros, Paia
Lavender Scone
& Lavender Tea
Amidst the Kula mist, you wander pictorial gardens. One palm is clutched around a steaming cup of lavender tea, the other around a warm, honey-soaked scone. You're looking for the perfect spot to sit, sip and nibble. Curled up in a wicker chair in an under-tree alcove? Perched on a hillside on turquoise-glazed porcelain stools? Sitting full-lotus with a Buddha statue, overlooking the isthmus? You sigh wistfully, spoilt for choice. Good thing you brought your own mug and your first cup of tea (or coffee) is free. - AY
Find it at: Ali'i Kula Lavender Farm, Kula
Reuben & Fresh-Squeezed Lemonade
The origin of the Reuben is a subject of much debate, but I personally don't give a hoot who invented it—just give me a dang Reuben (with a pickle and a side of slaw). Oh yeah, and a big glass of fresh-squeezed lemonade. Why lemonade? Why not? - AY
Find it at: CJ's Deli & Diner, Jay's Place, Kimo's, Lahaina; Cafe 808, Kihei; Marco's, Kahului; Stillwell's, Wailuku
PBBH & Almond Milk
Peanut butter/banana/honey sandwich and almond milk! There are a few flavor matches in nature that are undeniable and universal like lemon/parsley, salt/pepper, and peanut butter/banana! The honey ENLIVENS the peanut butter and enhances the sweetness of the banana. The almond milk washes it all down with a satisfying and healthy nut-flavored chill.
- Richard Butler, Manager Ritz Carlton
Also found at: Hawaiian Moons, Kihei; Mana Foods, Paia; Alive and Well, Down to Earth, Kahului; Farmer's Market of Maui, Lahaina
Quesadilla & Margarita
Our brie and grape quesadilla with cilantro macadamia nut pesto and sweet pea guacamole goes perfectly with our housemade mango margarita. Creamy cheese and frozen fruit just make a perfect pairing. - The staff at Haliimaile General Store, Makawao
Liquor Store Pairings
(1) Mickey's 40 oz. with Hot'n'Spicy Baken-ets. Nothing says I'm broke and hungry like that combo. (2) Ulupalakua Winery Framboise with a Toblerone Swiss chocolate bar. Sweet on sweet. How can you go wrong? (3) Don Julio 1942 tequila with a bag of deluxe mixed nuts. Spent all my money on a $140 bottle...nuts! - John Krickler, Aloha Discount Liquor, Kihei
Also found at: Valley Isle Liquor, Kihei; Wine Corner, Lahaina & Paia
Onion Soup & Ice Tea
You might think a one ingredient type soup like onion soup would be boring. Yet somehow its classic ageless flavors, from rich brown broth to caramelized onions and herbs is never insipid. Interpretations vary—some crust it over with a hunk of french bread topped with cheese and baked, and some top it with puff pastry, but the flavor profile and appeal is constant. Ice tea keeps refreshing the palate from the heavy carbs and oily cheeses. - JR
Find it at: Cafe O'Lei, Maui Bake Shop, Wailuku; Ruth's Chris, Wailea & Lahaina
Jambalaya & IPA
I'm a huge fan of jambalaya with a nice IPA or double IPA, like our Double Overhead. The hops add a natural spiciness to the beer while at the same time the floral and citrus flavors tame the sharpness. The maltiness, perceived as a bready sweetness, stands up well against the heat of the jambalaya. The flavors play well together by both contrasting and complementing the spices. - Garrett Marrero, Owner, Maui Brewing Co., Lahaina
Salad & Green Juice
Its green on green—green machine fresh from our juice bar made with kale, cucumber, apple, celery and parsley paired with a trio of salads from our expansive deli case. - Mike Fisher, Rodeo General Store, Makawao
Find it at: Choice Health Bar, Lahaina
Cheeseburger & Milkshake
When two heavy hitters like the burger and the milkshake make pairing rock and roll in your mouth, there's not much you can do to deny yourself this delightful meat sundae combination. Warm cheesy gooey beef patty sandwiched between buns and washed down with sweet swirled ice cream may alarm your cardiologist, but it will give you slice of American cuisine's hedonistic heaven on earth.
Find it at: Cool Cat Cafe, Hard Rock, Lahaina; Peggy Sue's, Kiwi Roadhouse, Fatboy Burgers, Kihei; Ruby's, Kahului; Stopwatch Bar & Grill, Makawao
Pizza & Pilsner
My favorite pairing is Scrimshaw Pilsner from North Coast Brewing Company with our butternut squash pizza. The slight sweetness of the butternut squash and caramelized onions is balanced with the slight malty sweetness in the beer. The soft dough is complemented by the toasty qualities of the beer. The warm creamy cheese is contrasted by the beer's cool, lively carbonation. Finally, both have a subtle herbal component as the pizza is finished with rosemary and the pilsner has a little hoppy bite. - Jason Vendrell, Monkeypod Kitchen, Wailea
Beef & Pinot Noir
Start with grilled Maui Cattle grass-fed filet of beef served with creamed Kula corn, chili-peppered green beans, house whipped potato and Hamakua mushroom sauce, and pair it with an earthy Pinot Noir. The weight of the meat is well matched by a medium or medium-plus bodied red, but the Hamakua mushroom sauce really sings when you pair it with a Pinot. Pick a nice medium-bodied wine that has some earthy notes to it from a vintage that wasn't too warm—a 1993 Pommard Clos des Epeneaux from Comte Armand for expensive tastes, or a bottle from Cristom of Oregon, Tyler Winery of California or Mt. Difficulty in New Zealand for the rest of us—and you're off and running. - Jeff Groh, Sommelier, Merriman's Kapalua
Unagi and Gyoza & Green Tea
Unagi is exotic and rich, usually served as an oily filet of eel with its soft skin laid open on sticky rice covered in a sweet teriyaki sauce. Served with gyoza—a bite-size dumpling dipped in a vinegary sauce with a ginger aftertaste. Throw in a third wheel, the bitter green tea chilled with ice, and the palate is clean enough to do it all over again. - JR
Find it at: Ramen Ya, Kahului; Genki Sushi, Kahului & Lahaina; Zushi, Lahaina
Cioppino & Lacourt
Barbera 2006
This red Italian wine paired with our version of cioppino is wonderful. It's served with an assortment of Pacific seafood in a red-based broth, spectacularly seasoned and prepared. Add to that the medium bodied, modern, spicy Lacourt Barbera and enjoy.
- Charlie Seibert, Manager, Capische, Wailea
Sushi & Wine
With sushi, a couple of beverages quickly come to mind, including sake or a Japanese beer like Asahi, Sapporo or Kirin. But how about a wine designed specifically for it? We currently are serving Oroya sushi wine by the glass. Japanese-born winemaker Yoko Sato crafted this Spanish white wine to match the flavors and textures of sushi.
- Randy Rinaldi, General Manager,
Sansei, Kihei & Kapalua
Filet Mignon & Pinot Noir
The Pinot Noir is the lightest in color and flavor from all of the red wines on the list. The filet is a very tender steak with a subtle flavor. The Hartford Court Land's Edge Pinot Noir is a medium bodied wine with a tinge of spiciness and a mild fruity flavor of cherries and plums from New Zealand. The combination of this spiciness and the subtle meat flavor makes a very enjoyable combination. - Cynthia Mayer, Director of Restaurants, Black Rock Steak and Seafood, Sheraton Maui, Lahaina
Also found at: Buzz's Wharf, Maalaea
Mexican Food & Tequila
(and/or Beer)
Mexican doesn't pair easily with wine, but tequila and beer are more than prepared to do the job. The spicy and crisp textures meld perfectly with tequila and dry lagers like a Pacifico or Tecate, especially in hot climates. The spicy heat welcomes the cool, dry beer, while tequila's citrus notes add a zestiness to the food (and your head). - JR
Find it at: Amigos, island wide; Tia Juana's, Lahaina; Fernando's, Kahului; Taqueria Cruz, Diamonds, Jawz Tacos, Fred's, Kihei
Sushi & Sake
Our Wailea roll is a California roll topped with yellowtail, salmon, tuna, unagi, scallop, shrimp and ginger sauce, which I think pairs best with our Dewazakua Oka ginjyo. This ginjyo has a delightful flowery bouquet with a touch of pear and melon, which complements but does not overwhelm the many kinds of sashimi on the roll. As a rule, sashimi has a delicate taste. Often with the strong flavor of some sake, you cannot feel the delicateness, so this mild and soft flavor Oka is best for it. Visually the Wailea roll is very colorful with many kinds of sashimi, which evokes the Japanese seasons and the Oka has a flowery bouquet reminiscent of the spring cherry blossoms. - Manabu Katsuyama, Sushi Chef, KAI Wailea
Find it at: Three's Bar & Grill, Isana, Izakaya Matsu, Kihei; Local Mocha (BYOB), Makawao; Kai Sushi, Kapalua
Salmon or Pork & Grenache
I recommend the Comartin Grenache and the wild pacific salmon filet baked with a pommery mustard, caramelized Maui onion crust. I've tasted three of Comartin's 2007 releases, a blend of three vineyards and two single vineyard-designated wines. All of them were flat-out gorgeous. My favorite was the 2007 Santa Barbara County—exciting things happen in the mouth with this wine. It starts out with supple, red fruit flavors of raspberry and pomegranate and then a bit of earth and spiciness flickers on the palate and leads into a long, smooth finish. - Richard Olson, Sommelier, Lahaina Grill, Lahaina
Prime Rib & Petite Sirah
The bright pink beef salt-crusted and slow-roasted with a horseradish seasoning just drips with richness, while the deep, inky Sirah is full of acidity and tannins to cut that fatty meat. - JR
Find it at: Lahaina Prime Rib & Fish Company, Lahaina; Mulligan's on the Blue, Wailea; Dog & Duck, Kihei; Coconut Grill, Kahului
Shabu, Shabu & Chardonnay
Our mauka makai shabu shabu with diver scallop, prime beef, soba noodle, sprout, ginger, fresno chili, cilantro and ox-tail broth goes amazingly with the Lioco Chardonnay, Sonoma Coast, California, 2009. The fresh and flavorful components of the shabu shabu provide a unique aroma and dynamic, flavorful experience. Lioco Sonoma Chardonnay is a stainless-steel fermented yet full-bodied Chardonnay that handles this dish with elegance.
- Alex Dreher, General Manager, Tropica, The Westin Maui Resort & Spa, Lahaina
Shrimp Scampi
& White Zinfandel
My personal favorite is the shrimp scampi over pasta with white Zin. It's a great meal in itself, but when you add the light and airy White Zinfandel it really comes together. - Prashant Sharan, Director of Operations, Lulu's, Kihei
Whole Fish & Pinot
In general the idea with wine pairings is to match the weight or texture of the wine with the weight or texture of the food—how it "feels" on the palate. Those who enjoy red wine with fish (like yours truly) will find the Ancien Pinot Noir from Carneros, California, an excellent pairing with our whole Moi, which is wok-fried and served with a black bean and lychee sauce and Kula vegetables. The exotic flavors of the lychee and mild spiciness of the Asian black sauce are balanced by the ripe fruit flavors and spices. - Karen Christenson, Owner, Mama's Fish House, Kuau
Find it at: Roy's Kahana Bar & Grill, Lahaina
Lamb & Zinfandel
Pair the roasted Australian lamb chops with herbed gnocci and glazed, local butternut squash with the rich and decadent 2009 Opolo Mountain Zinfandel from Paso Robles, California, and the lamb reaches a whole new level of savory richness. The Opolo Zinfandel dominates the midpalate with butterscotch and raspberry jam flavors, then finishes with rich vanilla and cinnamon spice. This full-bodied Zinfandel also has plenty of ripe black cherry, plum and spice, and is framed by soft tannins and balanced acidity. - Mary Ann Bowman, General Manager, Mala Wailea
Find it at: Mala Ocean Tavern, Lahaina
Strawberry Ahi Salad
& Riesling
The Strawberry Fields with fresh strips of Ahi tossed with julienned herbs, lettuce and Maui onions from our O'o farm in a honey chili water and sprinkled with black Hawaiian sea salt sends your palate through a spectrum of flavors. Selbach's Mosel-Saar Ruwer Riesling Kabinett from Germany has the perfect "transformation" profile, meaning that occasionally opposites provide the perfect complement. The clean aromas of petrol and citrus refresh the senses, while the delicate sweetness complements the honey chili water and the strawberries are exposed. - Solana Tao, General Manager, I'o Restaurant, Lahaina
Tempura Ahi
& Ginger Cocktail
Our signature cocktail, the "Awapuhi" (ginger) is a refreshing mixture of Absolut Vodka, Domaine du Canton Ginger Liquer, pickled ginger and mint with our housemade lemonade. When you pair it with our tempura ahi roll, the result is fantastic. - Travis Takahashi, Bartender, Gannon's, Wailea
Garlic Noodle
& Cran-zu Cocktail
Garlic Noodles are a staple of Asian restaurant menus. The dry mein noodles dressed only with green onion garnishes may not impress diners by sight alone, but get a whiff of the garlic and you know this dish is special. The flavor is addressed head-on with the sweet, tart cranberry, yuzu and luscious sake. - JR
Find it at: Star Noodle, Lahaina; Fresh Mint, Paia
Raw Ahi & Pino Gris
The ahi carpaccio with truffle oil, capers, shaved parmesan and lemon dill aioli is raw fish thinly sliced that literally melts in your mouth. I think it pairs very well with the Solena Pinot Gris, from Oregon. I want a full-flavored white wine, with a hint of residual sugar and no oak. This Pinot Gris continues to wow our guests; it's a relatively new Oregon winery, and they're obsessed with organic practices. - Sharon Jahns, Manager, Joe's, Wailea
Fruit Salad, Frozen
Yogurt & Tea
Breakfast of plant strong pioneers, there is no doubt fresh fruits combine to make a healthy treat no matter what time you take it in. Throw in ice cream, frozen yogurt, or whip cream and watch the flavors unfold on the tongue. Sugar does bring out the juice and deepens flavors of fruit. Take it all in with a cup of tea, the bitterness is balanced by the sweet. - JR
Find it at: Green Banana, Paia; Tutti Fruitti, Kahului
Ribeye & Red
My favorite pairing would be a nice cut of Maui Cattle ribeye and a bottle of Three Wishes red wine, which is sold for only $2.99. Local beef and a light refreshing wine—the perfect way to end the week or start your weekend. - Alan Sakamura, Meat Team Leader, Whole Foods Market, Kahului
Smoked Salmon
& Pinot Grigio
The salmon dish takes you through a variety of flavors—smoky from the salmon, sweet from the mango salsa, spicy from the guajillo chili and salty from the finishing salt. Stella Pinot Grigio is a light-bodied wine with some residual sugars that counteract the spiciness and saltiness of the dish. The flavor is clean and dry with a crisp citrus aroma that accentuates the layered flavors. - Executive Chef Marc McDowell, Makena Beach & Golf Resort, Makena
Teriyaki Plate & Kirin
I was just talking to my friend today about how my Aunt used to make package lunches for us when we had excursions as kids. We usually had musubi made with teriyaki meat. It was such a treat for us local kids since cafeteria food was always, well, cafeteria food. We hadn't yet invented Spam musubi, so this was the closest to fast food that was also delicious. - Eunice Kitagawa, Tokyo Tei, Wailuku
Ribs & Porter Beer
With the rib and brisket combo you get the best of both worlds—award-winning ribs and great smoked beef brisket. It's up to you on your side choices, but you can never go wrong with Maui macaroni salad and fresh steamed broccoli. A tall cold draft of Maui Brewing Company's Coconut Porter (brewed a few blocks away) washes our BBQ down with cool island goodness. - Ed Vorpahl, General Manager, Famous Dave's, Lahaina
Also found at: Beach Bums, Maalaea; Fat Daddy's Smokehouse, Kihei
Bass & Chardonnay
One of my all-time favorite pairings is the Chilean sea bass (farm raised) and a lush Chardonnay, such as Chateau Montalena. Our miso-glazed sea bass is cured in white organic miso with lemon zest, sake and ginger root. These ingredients really pull the delicate flavors forward in Chardonnay wines, and the rich buttery texture of sea bass is one of the greatest complements. - Chef David Paul, David Paul's Island Grill, Lahaina
Coconut Shrimp & Mai Tai
Shrimp breaded and fried in a crisp exterior of coconut served with a spicy/sweet dipping sauce is perfect with the rummy punch of the iconic mai tai. Pineapple and citrus notes are complemented by the sweet in the seafood and dipping sauce and balanced by the heaviness of the fried food. - JR
Find it at: Mai Tai Lounge, Castaway Cafe, Village Cafe & Sweet Shop, Lahaina; Coconut Grill, Kahului; Three's Bar & Grill, Kihei
Lamb Shank & Super Tuscan
My wine pairing is a braised lamb shank with an herb & fennel ragout, grilled eggplant & zucchini, mushroom risotto paired with Tenuta di Biserno, Insoglio, Super Tuscan, Italy . The region of Tuscany plays a large part in the wine pairing. The area is land locked, a place where vegetables, cattle , & game roam. The vine of the Tuscan grape is also a large part of the land. The two blend, food and wine to make a meal more enjoyable. - Christine Arabatzis, Pita Paradise
Melanzane Alla Parmigiana
& Chianti
Depending on the Chianti, you can have a light and fruity or medium- to full-bodied wine. Any way will do with this appetizer of layered eggplant and mozzarella that's gently salty and sweetened with basil and marinara. Add some focaccia or breadsticks and antipasti is on. - JR
Find it at: Casanova, Makawao; Casanova Bistro, Kahului
Smoked Marlin Dip & Sauvignon Blanc
Smokey marlin and creamy cheese with chopped aromatic vegetables converge in this amazing dip, perfect for smearing over warm pita bread. Pairing it with a crisp and clean Sauvingnon Blanc like the Honig or Babich smooths things out with a bit of tropical fruit and mineral flavor. - JR
Find it at: Stella Blues, Kihei
Pizza & Coke
The classic marriage of salty and sweet. The doughy cheese element is dense, and the carbonation of the soda fizzes it away for a sucker-punch gut bomb. - JR
Find it at: Tiki Lounge, Pizza Madness, Round Table Pizza, Matteo's, Shaka Pizza, Kihei; Serpico's, Pukalani; Max Bistro, Haiku; Flatbread, Paia; Lahaina Pizza Company, Lahaina; Pizza Fresh, Makawao
Pork & Vodka Ginger Ale
The bone-in pork chop is trussed and grilled to perfection. A stir fry of portabello mushrooms, onions, asparagus, eggplant, harusame noodles, hoisin, sweet Thai chili sauce, fish sauce, bean sprouts, jalapeno, thai basil, mint, green onion and cilantro accompanies the dish. Pair it with our tengu fizz: Absolute citron, passion fruit, lime juice, ginger ale and Thai basil. The ginger complement brings so much of these asian flavor components out, and the citron vodka keeps the sweetness in check.
- Matt Smith, Executive Chef, Hyatt Maui, Japengo, Lahaina
Mahi Mahi & Chardonnay
The baked mahi mahi Duke's style is one of our most flavorsome fish preparations. It comes with a garlic, lemon and sweet basil glaze. This would be perfectly paired with the King Estate Gris or Sonoma Cutrer Chardonnay
- Shaughn Helliar, General Manager, Duke's Beach House, Lahaina
Find it at: Alexander's Fish & Chips (without the wine), Kihei
Vanilla Ice Cream & Sherry
Home-spun vanilla bean ice cream topped with PX (Pedro Ximenez) 1982 Grand Reserva Sherry ($20 or so a bottle) makes a great pairing. The creaminess of the ice cream (the lactic acid) links with the carmel and chocolate notes of the sherry (from the tannins or the Oak barrels). You end up with a caramel sundae-tasting dish with a distinctive edge. - Jacques Perwin, General Manager, Spago Wailea, Four Seasons
Chocolate & Cabernet
There are so many great wines to complement any of our fondues; cheese and wine are a no-brainer. But I have to mention one of my staff's favorite: Fourteen Hands Cabernet with our secret "Snickers" fondue—milk chocolate, crunchy peanut butter and caramel, all in the fondue. The cab goes perfectly, bringing out those rich chocolate flavors but balancing it before it gets too sweet. - Cindy DelleFave, The Melting Pot, Lahaina
Sorbet & Ginger Ale
I am no mixologist, but if you've ever dabbled in infused concoctions you have to try making your own spiked ginger ale. The spicy aroma from ginger and star anise and sweetness from the vanilla is balanced perfectly with the freshness of the mint and lime. A little tropical sweetness from the lychee sorbet coats the palate and seems to wash away any memory of your preceding swig. - Chef Isaac Bancaco, Humuhumunukunukuapua'a, Grand Wailea

Want to See a Boy Screwing a Turtle? Go to Wikipedia (or Worcester, Massachusetts)
What does the above image look like to you?
If you said "a young boy having sex with a pleasantly surprised turtle," then your head is in the same place as a Reddit user who saw this image on Wikipedia and posted a link to it, questioning, "Seriously… Is This A Statue Of Some Kid F—ing A Turtle?!?"
That is the big question…
The Reddit post generated well over 200 comments, driving traffic to the Wikipedia article on the fountain (officially known as Burnside Fountain), which was swiftly vandalized (on the web, not IRL). Not long after the article was unceremoniously locked, with the note "Protected Burnside Fountain: Excessive vandalism: – link on popular website."
And so is the life of a Wikipedia article — at once informative and mock worthy: A balance so easily destroyed by vandals.
So, yeah, this is pretty much just a guy bangin' a turtle, right??

These parts are off my 1999 SE and removed at 173K miles. They were working fine just swapped out for SVT parts and no longer needed. Also have an imrc box with cable I got with the SVT parts but kept my stock box and cable , was told it is good but not sure. Also have a set of SVT 19#s return style injectors I got with the intakes and didn't use, again was told they were off a running 100k miles car so they should be good. I have the stock 17# injectors off my car swapped for a set of flow matched rebuilt 17#ers. I was having some issues and they need to be rebuilt. These parts are just taking up space so im open to offers.

THE MAROON *JL. 83, NO. 2 FRIDAY, StPTEMM**™* THE CARROLLTON HALL RENOVETION Residents relocated for dorm repairs By Chuck Alexander Staff writer Residential Life has relocated 38 residents of Carrollton Hall as a result of an estimated $10 million project to repair faults in the building's original design. Preliminary construction on the seventh floor of the dormitory began August 1, and workers officially received their demolition license to remove bricks from the exterior on Wednesday. Construction on the seventh floor is expected to last 12 weeks, while the sixth floor is estimated at eight weeks. The entire renovation is expected to take approximately 14 months. As a result of the construction, students originally slated to live on the sixth and seventh floors of Carrollton have been moved to lower floors while repairs are done on the seventh floor. Once construction is complete, a contracted moving company will assist students in moving their belongings and furniture back to the seventh floor and workers will begin construction on the sixth floor. Director of Residential Life Robert Reed said that, at the moment, construction is on schedule. However, he said construction could take extra time once workers finish with the sixth floor and move to the fifth floor, which houses a substantially larger amount of students. "That's our only real worry right now," Reed said. The larger number of students would force Residential Life to move Carrollton residents to Biever, Buddig or Cabra Halls. However, according to Reed, the number of students living on campus usually takes a three to four percent drop in the spring "I realize that it has to be done but I think it would have been more convenient for Loyola to have done this during the summer when [they] didn't have so many people living on campus." -JEFFREY BARKER, MANAGEMENT SENIOR, on the late start on Carrollton constmction. semester. Reed also said the drop in on-campus population would help keep the department from having to move anyone outside of his or her original residence. "Our goal is to only move people once," Reed added. In a letter to the displaced students dated July 27, 2004, Vice President for Student Affairs James Eiseman stated: "This repair work is necessary to correct certain design and construction defects that have allowed moisture intrusion into the building and caused mold and mildew to grow inside of exterior wall cavities." In his letter, Eiseman cited litigation as an impetus for the construction in order to "mitigate any further damage to the building." Mold intrusion in Carrollton-New Residence Hall has been a concern for Loyola for some time now. Last January, Loyola filed suit against the construction, insurance and engineering companies of then New Residence Hall — MAPP Construction, Inc.; Travelers Property & Casualty Insurance Company; Eskew + A Professional Corporation; and Einhorn Yaffee Prescott, Architecture & Engineering, P.C. were named as defendants. According to Reed, Loyola will be seeking most of the construction costs in the suit. The timing of the construction however has been a sore spot for some, who believe work should have begun earlier in the summer. "I realize that it has to be done," said Carrollton resident Jeffrey Barker, a management senior, "but I think it would have been more convenient for Loyola to have done this By Katie Ide Chief Copy Editor A fever, headache and vomiting are all common flu symptoms, and most college students who feel a bug coming on do not think much about it. However, symptoms such as these could point to an illness that is much more dangerous than the common cold, and can even be deadly: meningitis. Michelle Theriot, who is a nurse and the health educator at the Student Health Center, said that most college students do not realize that they are at high risk of contracting meningitis. The disease, which can be either viral or bacterial, is airborne and often spreads quickly in small spaces like college dormitories. "Meningitis is highly contagious, and students who live in dorms are far more susceptible because of their close living quarters," Theriot said. "Everyone who lives in the dorms, particularly freshmen, should get a meningitis vaccine." Theriot said that the vaccine is effective for three to five years and is 85 to 100 percent effective in preventing the illness. The Student Health Center can vaccinate a student for $80. According to Theriot, although Loyola does not require students to be vaccinated for meningitis, it is strongly recommended both by Meningitis a threat in close-quartered dormatories and can cause complications and death the school and by the American College Health Association. The ACHA Web site said that there are about 2500 cases of meningitis annually in the United States. Of those cases, 100 to 125 occur on college campuses. The Web site said the five to 15 of those students die as a result of the disease each year. Meningitis fatalities have affected schools in the New Orleans area before. In 2001 two Tulane University students. Cherice Cochrane and Julia Harrison, died from complications of the illness. Other symptoms of meningitis include a rash, neck stiffness, lethargy and sensitivity to light. Theriot said that the best way to avoid catching meningitis is to get vaccinated and then to avoid direct contact with shared items like drinks and cigarettes. She also said that anytime a student experiences two or more meningitis symptoms, he or she should come to student health or go to the hospital right away. If meningitis goes untreated, it can lead to shock and death within hours of the symptoms' appearance. "Meningitis is dangerous and is certainly not something to take lightly," Theriot said. "It's important not to take chances." See DORM, page 2

Reviews for Peanut Butter Brownie Bars(22)
Sort By :
I made these today and they taste very well, although I can't get the two layers to stick together. I made them for a cub scout bake sale so we will see what happens. Very Good..
My family LOVES chocolate and peanut butter....and this recipe is a favorite!
this is a big hit everywhere we bring it! Candy and brownie together in exactly the right combo, plus so simple to make! Have given this recipe to at LEAST 50 other people. Love it! Thanks!
Everyone loved them! I loved them, and that is what matters most. I did have trouble with the two layers sticking together whether room temp or straight from fridge...but I have no problem holding two layers together for something that tastes so wonderful. What can I say... I love candy and brownies, regardless of box or from scratch, and this is the best of both worlds!
I used the regular sized peanut butter cups not the mini size, it turned out great!

Massive tree falls on Wayland woman's car
WAYLAND, Mass. (WHDH) -- A Wayland woman was rescued after she became trapped in her car when a massive tree limb fell on her roof and brought down power lines.
Live electrical wires also put firefighters rescuing the woman in danger.
"I'm just absolutely the luckiest person on earth right now," said Pam Mauer.
Pam Mauer can't believe she's alive to talk about it. A massive tree fell on her car when she was driving home in Wayland Sunday night. She was able to call 911.
"A tree has fallen on the top of my car and I'm trapped in the car and there's power lines around me," Mauer told a 911 dispatcher.
The fallen tree brought down live power lines that ignited a fire inside Mauer's car.
"There were flames all around me on both sides and the car started to fill with smoke and it was pretty hopeless," Mauer said.
Another 911 caller abruptly stopped talking to the dispatcher to frantically warn someone near the car.
The caller can be heard saying, "Wait, wait, wait…power line! Get away!"
The caller was most likely yelling to Craig Bolivar, who raced out of his house to help Mauer, but it was too dangerous.
"She's saying, 'Help, help me get out, I'm trapped,' and I said, 'I would love to help you, emergency services are on the way. You have an enormous amount of voltage on the top of your car,'" Bolivar said.
In fact the fire chief says if the power had not been turned off by NStar, even they could not have saved Mauer.
"Basically they would have been able to do very little," the fire chief said.
The massive tree fell because it was completely rotted out at its base.
NStar was able to cut the power and firefighters were able to rescue Mauer in the nick of time.
"The Wayland fire and police departments came and they rescued me," Mauer said. "They were just absolutely wonderful. I can't say enough about them."
Mauer only suffered minor injuries.

Paul Yettaw
Foodservice Director
Lakeview School District, Battle Creek, Mich.
Born In: Flint, Mich.
Lives In: Battle Creek, Mich.
Married to Judy, a teacher. Three children: Jeremy, 32, Holly, 30,
and Erik, 28.
After his wife won a complimentary lesson at a local ballroom dancing studio, Paul Yettaw, foodservice director at 3,500-student Lakeview School District in Battle Creek, Mich., quickly fell for the art form.
"My wife got a phone call that said we had won a free lesson. It was fun, but from my perspective, it was a little overwhelming. You have all these different moves and the man has to lead. We finished the lesson and they talked to us about signing up for five lessons. We signed up. That was 12 years ago. We've been doing it ever since. It's our date night. Usually we go out for the lesson and then go out to dinner afterward.
In the beginning I was apprehensive because you see these people who can really dance and I'm going, I don't think I can do that. It took a few times to where I thought I could do it. You get your confidence up. We were new at the studio and some of these people had been there three or four years. We would look at them in awe and say, 'They make it look so easy.'
After several years at the studio, we were asked to do a showcase. You work with the instructor and she choreographs a routine for you and then at one of the parties at the studio you get to perform in front of everybody. It was for two minutes, but it was probably the longest two minutes of my life. I was very nervous, but we got through it.
There are three different levels in ballroom dancing: bronze, silver and gold. I always said that I just wanted to dance for the fun of it, but as we learned and progressed, I said we should really start looking at testing out of the bronze level so we could get some more material and steps to learn. The studio director is the one who sits in on the testing. You have all the different dances and within each dance you have to know 10 moves proficiently. During testing, they will say, 'I want you to do this move and this move,' and you have to be able to do it flawlessly. We tested out and we are studying in the silver division.
About three years ago, we thought about competing in Chicago. At LAC (Legislative Action Conference for the School Nutrition Association), I broke my foot, so by the time I did all the rehab I couldn't compete. My wife went with an instructor to compete. The following year we both went and competed in the bronze level. We didn't do badly. Last June, we decided to compete again in the silver division. We did 11 dances. We placed first in all 11.
Waltz is probably my all-time favorite. I also like the Viennese waltz, the quick step and the swing.
My youngest son was hired by the studio to be an instructor. He learned a lot faster than us because he was doing it eight hours a day. One of the things that was frustrating for me was I would learn a new move and get to the studio the next week and the instructor would say do this move and I couldn't. I have to do it six or seven times before it sets in.
My favorite parts of ballroom dancing are learning new steps and the camaraderie that you have with the people at the studio. For us, it's nice when there are new couples that come up to us and say, 'You guys make it look so easy.' I always tell them that I know exactly what they are going through. It just takes time and practice.
It's fun when we go to a wedding reception and people say, 'Wow, you guys really know what you're doing.' I always chuckle and say, 'Well, after 12 years I better know what I'm doing.'"

With nearly 300 vendors showcased at the Downtown Des Moines Farmers' Market, it's hard to know where to start, what to do, what to see, what to eat, and where to go. So, to help you discover new experiences at this city tradition, UnityPoint Health - Des Moines has started a new series called "Hidden Gems at The Market." Think of it as an insider's guide to some of the local vendors at The Market, who each bring something special and unique.
Chances are you've heard about "gluten-free" foods, or have seen the words popping up on labels at the grocery store or on restaurant menus around town. The gluten-free market is growing and going strong, with sales reaching several billions each year. But what is gluten-free, exactly?
Gluten-free foods are a healthy option for anyone, but in particular for people who suffer from celiac disease, which causes them to have major gastrointestinal complications from even the smallest consumption of the protein.
The Market offers several options for gluten-free foods, especially with all the fresh fruits and vegetables that are brought in from local farmers. Some vendors make gluten-free treats, like bread and baked goods, perfect for satisfying a sweet tooth.
Here is a list of some of the vendors offering gluten-free treats:
These vendors offer delicious glutten-free options for a variety of desserts, such as cookies, donuts, panna cotta, and many more! Come taste the gluten-free goodness for yourself and support your local bakers!

Look, there's something missing

Look. What's wrong in this photo by Sunthorn Pongpao?

Look, there's something missing.
Look closely at the photo (above). Look at the hands of the soldiers. Can you see that there is something missing?
Thieves have stolen the swords the soldiers were holding. The swords were made of bronze so the thieves probably wanted to sell them to earn money.
Altogether, the thieves have stolen 30 bronze swords from statues of ancient Burmese war elephants and soldiers located at a community park which is part of Ayutthaya Elephant Kraal.
The statues are actual size. The soldiers are 170cms tall and the elephants are three metres high.
Here's a second photo. Look closely at the soldiers on top of the elephants. Can you see that they still have their swords? They were up too high for the thieves to easily reach. SUNTHORN PONGPAO
They are all ready to fight. Each elephant is surrounded by four soldiers near the elephant's legs. The soldiers are armed with two swords each.
It is unfortunate the soldiers are not real. Thieves would not steal swords from real soldiers.

"Nothing helps people stay healthy more than the power of real knowledge about health." — Dr. Roger Harms
As medical director of content, Dr. Roger Harms is excited about the potential for Mayo Clinic's health information site to help educate people about their health and provide them the tools and information to live healthier lives.
The Auburn, Neb., native has been with Mayo Clinic since 1981 and is board certified in obstetrics and gynecology. Dr. Harms is a practicing physician and associate professor of obstetrics and gynecology, and his specialty areas include office gynecology, high-risk obstetrics and obstetrical ultrasound.
From 2002 to 2007, Dr. Harms was director for education at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minn. Dr. Harms was the 1988 Mayo Medical School Teacher of the Year and served as associate dean for student affairs and academic affairs. He is the co-author of the "Mayo Clinic Model of Education."

In addition, Dr. Harms is editor-in-chief of the "Mayo Clinic Guide to a Healthy Pregnancy" book, a month-by-month guide to everything a woman needs to know about having a baby.
"My medical education experience has grown out of a love of teaching, and that is what this site is about," Dr. Harms says. "If any visitor to this site makes a more informed and thus more comfortable decision about his or her health because of the information we provide, we are successful."

Birth control: Can pre-ejaculation fluid cause pregnancy?
Can you get pregnant from pre-ejaculation fluid?
from Roger W. Harms, M.D.
Yes. Pre-ejaculation fluid may contain sperm, which means that a woman can get pregnant even when ejaculation doesn't occur within the vagina.
Withdrawal of the penis from the vagina before ejaculation is one of the oldest methods of birth control. It's free, readily available and has no side effects. Still, withdrawal is unreliable at best — and it offers no protection from sexually transmitted infections.
If you're trying to prevent pregnancy, choose a more reliable type of birth control. If you're not sure which type of birth control is best for you, ask your doctor to help you understand the options.

NBA PM: Will Dwight Howard Ask Magic for Trade?
If ESPN's Stephen A. Smith is right, and Orlando Magic center Dwight Howard will ask for a trade at the end of the season, then he has been getting some of the worst advice on the planet.
Remember, Howard said he had previously been receiving bad advice before ultimately deciding to opt-in to the final year of his contract at the trade deadline.
But now, just when it appeared that Howard would be back in Orlando next season after dealing with his current back injury, Smith's report has the former Olympian heading for the door once again.
"The minute this season is over, according to what I am hearing from his camp, you can expect Dwight Howard to tell Orlando. 'Get me out of here,'" Smith said on ESPN's SportsCenter. "You've got Stan Van Gundy annoyed with the organization. You've got Dwight Howard disgusted with the organization. The way he's been treated, along with the way his teammates have been AWOL on him as far as he's concerned. You've got a problem."
Whatever the truth of the situation is, the Magic have more problems than just Howard's back. Either coach Stan Van Gundy or Dwight Howard won't be back next season as that franchise appears to be turning toxic.
Goodbye New Jersey, Goodbye Nets
Monday's 105-87 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers might have been a fitting way for the Nets to end their 35-year run in New Jersey (they actually played a total of 36 years in the Garden State, but only the last 35 were consecutive). That's not only because the Sixers, along with the New York Knicks and Boston Celtics, have tormented the Nets for nearly the duration of their tenure in Jersey. It's also because the 76ers bought Julius Erving's contract from the Nets, who owed $3.2 million to join the NBA and another $4.8 million to the Knicks in 1976.
Had the Nets not been forced to pay such a large fee (for the time) in order to gain access to the league and the New York City market, the Nets would have been able to keep Erving and probably would boast more than two ABA Titles in their rafters.
But as up and down as their history in New Jersey was, Monday's spectacle in Newark was fun for the sellout crowd. Nets fans cheered loudly throughout the loss—particularly during a third-quarter run in which the Nets seemed destined to overtake the Sixers.
Halftime was made even more entertaining by the return of Nets legends, including Jersey City-native Mike O'Koren, Derrick Coleman, Otis Birdsong, Michael Ray Richardson, Darryl Dawkins, Kenny Anderson, Chris Morris, Kendall Gill as well as Biserka Petrovic, mother of the greatest shooter in team history, the late Drazen Petrovic.
There was also a video message from the greatest New Jersey Net ever, Dallas Mavericks point guard Jason Kidd:
"Congratulations on the celebration of 35 years. That's a long time. Being a Net was a great time of my career and a great honor. So I hope you guys enjoy tonight and hopefully I'll see you guys soon. Take care."
Admittedly, beginning that message with "congratulations" was a bit awkward, but nothing was more damaging to the nostalgia of the day than Gov. Chris Christie's comments at a nearby event before the game.
"I'm not going to the Nets game tonight and my message to the Nets is 'Goodbye,'" Christie said when asked by the Associated Press for a reaction at a press conference. "If you don't want to stay, we don't want you. Seriously, I'm not going to be in the business of begging people to stay here. That's one of the most beautiful arenas in America that they've had a chance to play in. It's in one of the country's most vibrant cities."
Newark has gotten much nicer downtown, but calling it one of America's "most vibrant cities" was a bit of a stretch. Anyway, Christie wasn't done.
"They want to leave here and go to Brooklyn?" he asked rhetorically. "Good riddance. See you later."
Derrick Coleman hadn't heard the quote, but after HOOPSWORLD gave him the details, he responded with a gem of his own.
"She said 'good riddance' to the Nets?" Coleman asked. "She must (not) like basketball."
(In Coleman's defense, Christine Todd Whitman became Governor of New Jersey while he was still playing for the Nets and he could have mistaken "Christie" for "Christine" when the question was asked.)
But more than Gov. Christie's quote, all the media in attendance wanted to talk to Coleman about his most-famous phrase: "Whoop-de-damn-do."
"I was just talking to Kenny (Anderson) about that earlier, and I told him, 'I was sticking up for you' so I blame him all the time," Coleman said. "It was the first thing that popped into my mind."
For those that don't know, Anderson went missing for a practice in 1994 and naturally the media went looking for answers. When asked for comment, Coleman reminded everyone that Dwayne Schintzius, who recently passed away, missed a practice himself just a few days earlier.
But when one reporter suggested that Anderson should set an example as a team leader, Coleman coined the exclamation, "Whoop-de-damn-do."
"What can I say about that?" Anderson asked on Monday. "I missed practice. It's 20 something years ago. I missed practice and everybody made a big deal about it. And Derrick said, 'Whoop-de-damn-do.' It is what it is."
The Nets players in attendance all have different relationships with the team now, but former Nets center Todd MacCulloch made it clear that, even though he played only one season with the team, he didn't see the move to Brooklyn as an end to anything. He, and many former players like him, are going to continue to be a part of the Nets family moving forward.
"They'll be able to create that atmosphere in the new place," he said. "That being said, not all arenas are equal, and from what I'm hearing the new one is going to be spectacular and will hopefully be a place that people will want to come (to) and be a part of something special and really enjoy themselves and have some nice comforts while they're there."
It's hard to say whether New Jersey will miss the Nets or if the franchise will miss the state, but even during a loss, the best of both parties seemed to come out.
"You know, there are still a lot of good memories here," Nets coach Avery Johnson concluded.
Glen Grunwald promoted to Knicks General Manager
Like coach Mike Woodson, general manager Glen Grunwald had been serving the Knicks under the "interim" title, that is, until today, when the team named him executive vice president and general manager.
"Glen has done a terrific job this season," owner James Dolan said. "He is an intelligent, seasoned executive and we look forward to him continuing in the role of general manager for many years to come."
Grunwald has been with the team since 2006, and was actually Woodson's teammate at Indiana. His promotion definitely bodes well for Woodson staying on beyond this season.
"It has been a great honor to be a part of this storied franchise for the past six seasons," Grunwald said in a statement. "I would like to thank Mr. Dolan for this opportunity and look forward to building on our commitment to give our fans a team that they can be proud of today, and in the future."
Bob Myers promoted by Golden State Warriors
Grunwald wasn't the only NBA front office executive to get promoted on Tuesday. Former Wasserman Media Group player agent—and a member of the 1995 UCLA Bruins National Championship Team—Bob Myers was promoted from assistant GM to general manager, while Larry Riley will become the team's scouting director.
"We're extremely pleased to announce Bob's promotion as we conclude the 2011-12 season," said owner Joe Lacob in a statement. "We are confident that he is the right person to guide our Basketball Operations Department into the long-term future and, similarly, through a very important time for this franchise as we begin to prepare for next season. As we acknowledged a year ago, we think his potential as a young executive in this business is outstanding and that intuition was certainly confirmed during his first year with the organization. Bob is a well-respected, intelligent and dedicated executive who has developed many solid relationships in the game of basketball and understands what it takes to be successful in this business. He's the ideal person for this job."
Myers represented players such as New Jersey Nets center Brook Lopez before being hired by the Warriors in 2011.

Editor's Note: This was originally posted on August 26, 2011 by Patricia Hoffman, Assistant Secretary, Department of Energy. She talks about the Department of Energy's role in supporting state and local response and recovery efforts after disasters, such as Hurricane Irene, affect energy infrastructure.
The Energy Department is closely monitoring Hurricane Irene as it travels up the U.S. coast. Upon declared emergencies, the Energy Department serves as the energy focal point for response and restoration efforts, monitoring energy infrastructure and coordinating response across the federal community, state and local governments, and industry. Department emergency responders are now staffing the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) National Response Coordination Center in Washington, DC as well as FEMA's Regional Response Coordination Centers in Boston, New York, Philadelphia and Atlanta. An emergency responder is also deployed to Puerto Rico as part of an Incident Management Assistance Team on the island.
Emergency Situation Reports are now available detailing the storm's impact to the energy sector and restoration activities being taken.
The energy sector is also preparing for this event by taking such actions as bringing in additional crews, preparing equipment for emergency restoration work, keeping utility contractors on call and ensuring that additional supplies, such as poles and pole-top equipment, are on hand to promptly respond and restore service should the storm result in outages. These are just some of the preparations that are currently underway.
Americans living on the East Coast should also prepare and follow local direction. FEMA's website offers practical guidance on what to do before, during, and after a hurricane. If you experience a power outage, you should contact your local utility for assistance.
The Energy Department's Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability (OE) is the designated Federal Sector-Specific agency directing Emergency Support Function 12 (ESF-12) activities for the Energy Sector under the National Response Framework. In the event of an emergency, OE maintains teams of responders that specialize in energy infrastructure. These responders can be quickly activated and deployed to the location of an event. During an event, OE staff coordinate with deployed personnel, other Department offices, and Federal and State and local agencies in responding to the emergency.
Additional information on the Department's work in emergency preparedness is available at the Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability.

This is all fine and well but,why can't anyone address the issue of antiquated above ground power lines that are ALWAYS prone to damage from wind,rain,trees etc.Start a program NOW to put all power lines underground.The only negative side of this is it will cost jobs since there will be less time attending to the problems with fixing existing lines.
I agree. If the EPA can sue diesel engine manufacturers and win, and implicate ridiculous emissions standards, why not underground electricity. Surely this idea is not new. It is cost.

A judge has denied a temporary restraining order requested by a neighborhood group to delay construction of a controversial turn lane in Clintonville.
Franklin County Common Pleas Judge Timothy S. Horton denied the motion yesterday. The North Broadway Street Association will decide soon whether it will appeal, said its attorney, Phil Harmon.
The city doesn't plan to begin work on the turn lane from westbound E. North Broadway to southbound N. High Street until August. The Columbus City Council has approved a $308,960 contract with Decker Construction to do the work.
To accommodate the turn lane, the city will widen E. North Broadway in the block between High Street and Broadway Place.
The North Broadway Street Association filed a suit in 2010 to determine who controls the 15-foot right-of-way along either side of E. North Broadway between High Street and Indianola Avenue. Property owners say their rights are being stripped.

text: Yesterday was the last day of school, and it's finally summer. I never write anything on tumblr anymore. But to compensate, here's a bit of my junior year in pictures. :) Hopefully I'll just look back on these and remember the year. It started out fine. In fact I thought I couldn't be any happier. Halfway through an unexpected turn of events kind of threw me off track. To be completely honest, I really don't remember that much of earlier this year since I tried to forget it all. It took me a while to get back on my feet, and it's definitely changed me as a person. But I'm glad I went through it because of what I've gotten out of it. Looking back on it now, I realize that there were so many things wrong that I didn't notice, simply because I wanted to live in the bliss. So I ignored it, then it slammed me when everything suddenly changed and I was broken. At first I didn't see hope in anything, I didn't even feel like me. I just ran away from my problems mentally, I would avoid them completely. I would make myself so busy with schoolwork and activities so I wouldn't have time alone to feel miserable. I stayed up really late doing anything just to exhaust myself so I wouldn't have to lie in bed at night struggling to fall asleep. I stopped eating, I guess just because I didn't enjoy food as much. This year I learned a lot about myself and I realized how weak I truly am. And although I'm disappointed in myself, I'm glad I learned. But with time I realized I wanted to feel better because I was sick and tired of being sad all the time. And I wanted to be happy for me and not anyone else. I ended up making new, close friends out of some acquaintances. Random people I'd known but never expected to actually be good friends with, and they didn't know each other too well before either. I had no idea that putting us together would result in close, committed friendships. To be completely honest, they turned my life around for the better. And I don't know what'll happen next or how summer will go but I hope I keep these 6 people around for a long time because they make life phenomonominal. ♥ And also, next year is going to be a big change. Senior year… I'm so not ready for it. I'm also going to miss our sophomores juniors seniors college kids next year. Not having any of the big kids to look up to will be a bit different. I remember feeling special having them as friends, simply because not everyone had good friends from other grades. But I was lucky enough to get that from my first year in high school. FASA fam changed and pretty much made my 3 years of high school so far pretty damn fucking awesome. But next year will have to be great too, even if they're not there as often. I'm nervous and excited for next year. Governor's school… Senior year… College apps. It's all going to go by so quickly, then graduation. Okay, life. Let's go on a ride. :) # personal pictures me life reflecting junior year friends phenomonom fasa chem hoa Posted 1 year ago 1 note whoaaitsjess likes thismadzeelyn posted this
