It has been quite the year here at IMG academies. I cannot say that I am going to return home the same person that I was nine months ago. This can be a bad thing, but in the long run, I believe it is a great accomplishment. The things I have learned and experiences I [...]

Well it is almost the end of another school year! Where has the time gone? As excited as I am to start summer, I’m not too excited about the prospect of final exams. With the final exams comes the studying. That part can be extremly tedious and tiring. Even though we have learned all of [...]

Today was the last day of high school for all the seniors of the Pendleton School. To be honest, I have longed for this day for almost 4 years now but much to my surprise, I feel sad that it is all coming to an end. All the friends I have made in the past [...]

This week we have gotten the yearbook. Of course, I have never taken a good class picture. It is always the morning I am running late. But of course my peers did look very good. There was things from silly to sports to senior pages. Also this is the wonderful Finals. I have found either [...]

I have been to nearly five schools over the past 12 years and I can honestly say that Pendleton is the clear favorite. Many write off Pendleton for being an “easy” or “non academic” school, however, this year it has proven to be everything but that. Pendleton has a great staff in place that [...]

Every year has to end, its like every night has a dawn. It is hard to believe how fast and how slow the year goes by. Personally I can remember playing the name game in every class on the first days of school like it was a month ago. But honestly these past weeks feel [...]

As the Varsity season came to a close about a month ago, it was difficult finding reasons and motivation to continue attending classes in the morning, especially that first period one. My favorite class this year has been Mr. Kennedy’s 3A Current Event’s class and once again Mr. K has stepped up in the clutch [...]

As we all know prom is coming up for Pendleton. This is the week to buy tickets and figure out limo seats. It’s a lot to get a whole group of teenagers on the same page. Have to make sure everyone gets their ticket at the same time. I can’t wait to see my classmates [...]

One morning I woke up went to school and there was a note on the board reading that we are not allowed to have our cell phones during a test. Apparently some students (to the attention of Mr. Schwager) have been texting during tests which have different forms in conclusion it would be easier for [...]

A post-grad baseball player has the ideal life; a life that anyone would ask for. They wake up every morning around 11am, head down to the cafeteria to get lunch and make their way out to the field around 1.30pm for practice. Their day concludes with an evening lifting session or for many, University of [...]

Everyone has heard this, parents, teachers and don’t lie you have even said it ” Can’t it Just be the Weekend Already?”. We all dream of the weekend were movies are endless, sleeping is either abundant or lack there of, and no schedule. I know when I get to school on Monday, I am already [...]

Back to school, it is like starting a new year. It has been so long since we have sat through a class. Teachers are claiming to slowly ease back into it in. But honestly, I feel like we have hit the ground running. The good news behind this is that we only have a little [...]

It is a bright, sunny morning as a student picks up the coveted letter from the mail. His hands are shaking feebly by the weight of the thin envelope from the university. The process of opening it and taking in its radiance can last a long period of time. As the student pulls out the [...]

Spring Break for other schools is Here ! We all claim after we get out of Bradenton, we are not coming back. But to be honest, in the last week I have seen so many seniors from last year here. Of course, they all had said “No way am I ever coming back to Bradenton!” [...]

Remember when you were little and played the game where one person would whisper in someone else ear. Then it would continued the line, by the end the sentence was a total different meaning. This game is still true today. As one story is passed from one teenage to another, it gets totally mixed up. [...]

Today at lunch there was a happening that baffled me. One of my good friends, Louisa Costa was not able to have dinner because she forgot her ID.

The end of semester, finally we made it! But of course at the end of any term, there is always a final. After break, personally I have forgotten everything. From Chinese to the password on my computer. After a week of review, I am still freaking out about it. With Midterms it makes or breaks [...]

You may have noticed the weather in Florida recently has been cold and not very pleasant to play sports. For most people from the north, this weather is not cold compared to home. But for Florida standards, this is about as cold as it gets. Many Floridians are not use to this weather and think [...]

Break was incredible, to be able to eat real food and then get presents on top of that. But the hardest part is getting back to school. On Monday, I was a mummy in class. I had to take my first period and figure out my computer and email password. Then when I got home, [...]
