Caption Contest Winners!

And the winners! Yes, you heard right, the winners of this caption context are Fong AND Selenacrazy. We thought their captions combined to provide the best information about the picture. Fong began nicely and we loved that he told us what a didgeridoo was and what kind of sound it made, but we also liked how Selenacrazy talked about how the assembly affected all of the Mirman students. 


Fong and Selenacrazy, come to Mrs. S's room for your reward! :)

Not So Long Ago...

Not so long ago, we began this school year with the knowledge that the time we spend together will create fond memories that will last a lifetime. So far, how are things going for you? Were you nervous on the first day? What are some of the highlights so far?

Caption It! (Take 2)

When we first established this blog we had a caption contest, and it was such a hit that we decide to open another! So once again, we are giving you the chance to out-write the yearbook staff! Again, here are the rules:

1. The first sentence must be in present tense, the rest must be in past tense.

2. Include persons' names (Anaïs and Diana), year (US2), and a description of the activity (Didgeridoo Assembly).

3. Captions must tell more than just what's seen in the picture.

4. Remember to include the following: who, what, where and sometimes why.

You have until 3:00 p.m. October 28th to enter; the student with the best caption will receive a prize that is yet to be determined!

El Capitan Canyon

What perks do you get if you stay for Third (and Fourth) Year? Well, for one thing, you get a totally awesome trip to El Capitan Canyon. High ropes course? Check. Hiking? Check. Sea kayaking? Check. Heated cabins with a bathroom? Check. Campfire with smores? Double check!

Ping Pong Rally's On!!!!

Every day whenever there is a time where nothing academic is happening we Mirmanites gather around the ping pong table to watch the exciting and sometimes even slightly dangerous battle to be King of the Pong.  This round, Kent emerged victorious, but who knows how long he'll hold the crown...

Have a Laugh!

It’s not all studying and books here at Mirman. Take a look at the eating habits of our resident Fourth Years, the hectic games that occupy lunch and recess, the grape catching competitions, and the examination of (not so) favorite pop-stars. What do you think we will remember more, the facts or the memories we shared?

AND, we'd like to announce the winner of our caption contest:  the one, the only, the Fongolicious! Mrs. S will track down the Fongolicious on Monday to award him his justly deserved prize!
