Promposals
Prom is right around the corner, which means cute promposals.
Hannah Young (‘15) was asked by Matt Simmons (‘15) on her birthday. He gave her a shoe box with new Nikes and opened it to find “P.R.O.M? –Matty” on the inside and said, “Will you go to prom with me?” Of course, Young said yes. She says, “It was perfect because of track; It was a good way to ask an athlete. I was really surprised!” Only Amelia Kyle (’15) and Simmons' mom were in on the surprise. Young also says that they were talking about prom in the car right before he asked her. She thought he wouldn’t ask her for a while, so it made the surprise even more shocking.
Cayleigh Kerns (’14) asked Joe McDaniel (’16) at school in Mr. Smith’s room 8th period. She sent him on an adventure with a path on sticky notes whilst she hid in Kirtland’s room with some friends who were in on the plan. Kerns had purchased two pizzas, spelling “PROM” on one and “?” on another with pepperoni, and on the inside of the box it said “I know this is cheesy, but will you go to prom with me?!” with balloons tied to it. McDaniel was really excited and said yes. Kerns’ original plan was to do this in the parking lot, but due to the rain, she had to settle for inside the school.
Joy Goodman (’15) was asked to prom by Jesse Nuessbam (’15) at her house. Nuessbam asked her with 182 tea candles forming the word “PROM?” Goodman’s sister Charity, a class of 2013 graduate, and friend Amelia Kyle (’15) were the only ones in on the plan. Good man says, “It was a total surprise because they never talked about it!”
Gabrielle Evans (’15) will be attending Westerville South’s prom with junior Ryan Leonard. Evans went to pick up pizza with her friends for the youth group while Leonard set up the surprise. Evans got back and couldn’t find her phone, so her friends told her to look on the underside of the table and there was a poster that said “Prom?” She then came back up and saw a card, candy, and flowers on the table, and Evans of course said yes. Leonard got the entire youth group in on it and spent two weeks planning it. Evans said “I knew it was going to happen, but didn’t know when, so I was on my toes the entire day.”
Matthew Grindle (’14) asked Summer Prevost (’14) while on vacation to Cocoa Beach, Florida. Grindle woke up early to spell “Prom” with shells on the beach so when he, Prevost, and her brother Devon all went for a sunrise walk, they would be laying there waiting. Devon was the only one in on the plan so he could take pictures. Grindle said he talked with Prevost’s friend Mikaela Disbennett (’14) and she suggested the idea. Grindle said that Prevost thought it was just a walk and when she “saw the shells was totally surprised."

Reflections from the Wreckage
By Katelynd Havice
NORTHRIDGE-I was driving down a road I live on, driving down a road I drive every single day, and in a matter of seconds I had no control over the outcome of my life. Flying through the air and landing upside down, trapped inside a 3,000 pound car. Losing complete control just by changing the radio station.
In a matter of seconds, it - my life, my future, my plans - could have all been over.
Luckily, I was one of the few teen drivers that make it out of a car accident like that. Every year over 3,000 teen drivers aren’t so lucky, and every day 16-19 teenagers are added on to that number. Car accidents are the #1 leading cause of death for American teenagers. Most of those accidents are completely preventable, but most teenagers don’t or cannot learn that until after the tragic car accident.
Teenagers seem to think that they are invincible and that nothing bad could ever happen to them. And I’m sure over 3,000 teenagers a year thought the same thing; and 16-19 teenagers probably thought nothing like that would ever happen either. And I definitely was one of them, never thinking anything bad would ever happen to me until I lost my car and almost lost my life. When your parents bug you every time you walk out the door to be safe and drive carefully, they are not just saying those things to be an annoying, "typical" parent; they are saying that because even the slightest mistake can cost you your life while driving a motor vehicle.
Thinking you’re invincible while driving a car relates closely with thinking you can multitask while driving a car. Every year teenagers get in car accidents and don’t survive by things that could have been prevented. Texting/ talking on the phone, eating, changing the radio station, putting on makeup, anything that causes you distraction and for you to take your eyes off the road could cause a fatal car accident. There is no text or phone call more important than your life. Never take one second for granted.
Teenagers everywhere get into fatal car accidents, even our local friends and students of Northridge High School. In addition to me, there have been many students that have gotten into accidents just in recent years who have stories of caution to tell.
Courtney Legg (‘14) was one of them. She was driving home from softball practice and made a left turn into oncoming traffic. Legg says, “I blacked out and don’t remember anything, but my car was totaled, windows were shattered, and my door was jammed shut, trapping me inside. I broke my hand and had to have surgery to have pins put into my fingers and was in a cast for five months.” She had her license suspended for six months, and she was also one of the many teenagers to think nothing like that would ever happen. Legg admits, “I never in my life would have thought something like that would happen to me. No one ever does. It was a very scary thing that I almost lost my life and I never saw it coming.” Legg regrets ever driving irresponsibly and tries her best to reduce the risk factors and advises other teen drivers to be very cautious and always wear a seat belt.
Another senior at Northridge, Vinny Sanfillipo (‘14) got into a bad car accident as well. His accident was caused by a ball point snapping on the rear of his car. His car was totaled, and he also lost his license for six months. When asked, “Did it change your perspective on life and driving?” Sanfillipo responds with, “Absolutely. Those videos they always showed in driving school suddenly seemed too real and it scared me to death... I never thought that it could ever happen to me. I thought talking about wrecks were just an adult thing to scare kids; I couldn’t have been more wrong.” He also says he is much more careful now and never goes over the speed limit. Sanfillipo advises other teen drivers to always stay alert and never text and drive. He says, “One text is not worth it. If it is an emergency, pull over. Otherwise it can wait.”
Not only is your life in danger every time you enter a vehicle, but so are the lives of your siblings, best friends, the ones you care for most. You could lose your life, and so could your loved ones. Every time you drive a car, remember the consequences of being distracted and take all precautions. Take your parents' and others' advice; don’t let distractions or irresponsible driving get the best of you, or of your life.

Middle School Students Taking High School Classes
By Gabrielle Evans
NORTHRIDGE- The high school isn't just for high school students. Roughly 60 middle schoolers are taking high school classes this year, most of them eighth graders. The classes they are taking are Algebra 1 with Mr. Shaun Boening, Freshman English with Mrs. Jill Hotchkiss, Physical Science with Mr. Rob Russell, along with a few other exceptions of taking even higher advanced classes.
This year there are two full periods of just seventh and eighth graders taking Algebra 1, in classrooms of their own (no high schoolers). The students include: Carter Comisford, Zachary George, Jackson Wilson, Abigail Travis, Olivia Shank, Caily Thorpe , Rachel Allen, Seth Frazier, Emma Young, Samuel Tucker, Makenna Hale, Luke Shoen, Jarrod Teeter, Alayna Curran, Caroline Liggett, John Elliott, Samuel Elliott, Olivia Humes, Nicholas Spinosi, Logan Willeke, Savanna Verhovec, Alex VanGundy,Jessica Koehler, Brian Scott, Andrew Mace, Victor Weaver, Ryan Debolt, Kaylin Zipf, Jacob Chestnut, Dylan Hewett, Jacob Gockenbach, Alison Bash, Katelyn Darby, Emma Holbrook, Megan Smith, Alexandra Rahde, Alexander Chalfant, Forest Belli, Graham Garee, Peyton Yost, Caleb Garee, Michael Bednarczyk, Caylee Lindsay, Katie Applequist, Drew Davison, Jacob Feightner, and Olivia Carpenter. For most of these middle school students, this represents their first time in a high school classroom setting.
There are only four students taking physical science: Ryan Debolt, Jacob Chestnut, Forest Belli, and Katie Applequist. There are two students taking Freshman English: Noah Miller and Forest Belli.
Wyatt Bunstine is an eighth grade student who has been coming up to the high school since he was in sixth grade. He is now in eighth grade and in advanced in math and science. Bunstine likes taking high school classes because it challenges him more, and he says they are not as "boring" as middle school classes because of his need to be challenged. One thing he said that he does not like about it is "being away from my friends and not knowing anyone in the high school very well." He would tell other students to take high school classes in middle school if they are ready for the work and effort that is needed to put into the classes. Bunstine has taken seven classes in the high school the past three years; Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Pre-calcus, Biolodgy, Anatomy and Physiology, and Chemistry. One thing that he thinks is a positive of taking high school classes is " most high school students don't bother me because I have been taking classes with some of them for years, and they forget that I'm still in middle school."
Payton Yost, another eighth grader that is only taking Algebra 1, likes taking high school classes because it is easy. This is his first year taking a high school class. He also enjoys the freedom that there is in the high school compared to the middle school. One thing he says he doesn't like is that "sometimes high school teachers can be mean." When asked what he would tell other students if they were interested in taking high school classes as a middle schooler, he responded "You should not take it if you are not ready for it; the classes require a lot more work and effort."
Most seem to agree middle school students taking high school classes is a good way for them to get introduced to the high school setting before they are truly a high schooler so they know what to expect and can be even more prepared for it than other middle school students.

Dealing with Prom Rejection
By Savannah Legg and Megan Dalton
NORTHRIDGE- With prom right around the corner, asking/being asked to prom is what everyone is talking about at Northridge High School. Here are insightful ways to handle the situation in which a “proposal” goes wrong.
How to handle being rejected
Picture this: you put yourself out there and ask the love of your high school life to prom, and they turn you down. They just stomped you like a bug, the pain feels as if you stubbed all of your toes, all at one time. And your only lifeline is how you deal with this rejection. Here are some ways to dodge moral and social humiliation.
Option 1. Fall to the ground and fake a heart attack, or another life-threatening trauma. Furthermore, this could prompt the rejecter to preform CPR on you, which opens the possibility of him/her being your pity-date to prom.
Option 2. Eliminate your margin for error by asking them on April fool’s Day. That way if they reject you, you can scream "April Fools," and run away from the scene of shame. (This may also work on days other than April Fools)
Option 3. Having been rejected, inform the rejecter that it was never your intention to ask them out, but that you were offered money to ask.
Option 4. If you decide to make the occasion special, by blowing up balloons, presenting them with candies, etc., make sure you ruin it all in a fit of fury. For example, pull out a sharp utensil (shank) and frantically pop all existing balloons that you have presented to the person. Or, snatch the candy out of their hands, and eat it, wrapper and all, with no regrets.
How to reject someone else
Option 1. After being asked to Prom, pretend to hear your phone ring, say that it’s an urgent business call, and immediately leave the premises.
Option 2. Act as though you do not speak the native language of the asker. Example: No Hablo ingles.
Option 3. Tell the undesired date that your dog recently died, and you need to go alone in remembrance of him.
Option 4. Just be honest with them and say “I’m just not feeling you’re love, homie."
Option 5. Throw them “the face” (refer to youtube if you are unfamiliar with “the face”)

Columbus Music Scene
By Trevor White
Local music scenes are prominent in almost all American and worldwide cities. Playing in small venues to a crowd usually no bigger than seventy people is what they do on their weekends, and many do it very well without being recognized. Columbus is no exception to this and has a very talented and loyal local music scene.
Nearly every Friday or Saturday night if you’re on campus or downtown you’re very likely to find a show going on. Whether it be at Skully’s, Kobo Live, or even 18th House you can almost guarantee there is something going on.
Quite a few of the bands, such as The Beast and His Image, The Infantry, and Conquerors frequently tour together and play local shows very often. The hardcore scene is probably the most prominent and popular, often drawing moderate crowds to shows. The majority of hardcore and metal shows were held at Kobo Live but, due to new ownership and extensive damages that happened during the shows, they no longer hold or tolerate any shows that involve moshing. This has caused quite a ruckus in the scene, since many of the fans and musicians alike like to call Kobo their home.
There are quite a few bands hailing from Columbus that have gained much success. Bands like The Plot In You who are from Findlay played countless shows in Columbus and they are now signed to Rise Records, a huge label in the music industry. A band under the name of Attack Attack! practically started an entire genre by themselves. Coming from Westerville they created a genre called “Crabcore’, which is now thankfully dead. "It is exciting to see how many more bands will gain popularity by working hard and producing good music." said Dry Bones drummer Jack Sipes.

Spring Break memories
By Hunter Adkins
Spring break is a break from school and everything that comes with it. It's also time for students to have fun hanging out with family and friends. Some students also went on vacation with some friends or even with family.
Seniors Jacob Burke, Haley Menix, Connor Johnson, Morgan Ulery, Eric Dills, Haley Tackett, Danielle Salamone, Arielle Cotrell, and Marissa Mullen went to Panama City in Florida for Spring break to have fun and make memories that will last forever. They spent most of their time hanging out at the beach and playing beach games. When they weren't at the beach they were parasailing, hanging out in the hotel, and going out to dinner. They all had so much fun together and became closer friends.
Taylor Esty (14') and Emily Esty (16') went on a cruise to the Bahamas with their mom and grandma. They spent two days in Florida and then the cruise was five days. They laid out a lot, swam with dolphins, swam, went to nice dinners and some teen parties that were on the cruise ship. Esty (14') said"It was gorgeous and the water was so blue; I had so much fun!"
Macy Adams and Sarah George (15') went to Florida and stayed with Macy's grandparents. They went to the pool and the beach and, one day while at the beach, they saw dolphins. They went to a circus performed by kids in middle school and high school. They also spent some time prom dress shopping.
Not everyone wants to go to the beach though during Spring Break. Some just want to relax and enjoy being off from school. And that's what it should be all about!
