Lounge Night:
"BSGE's Most Successful Event Yet"


Lounge Night 2010

As the lights went down and the spotlight hit the ‘stage,’ the crowd screamed in anticipation for the different performers to come out. People pushed each other to get to the front to see Lenny Herrera, who hosted the event. After Lenny did a comedy skit mocking a few lucky (or unlucky) BSGE students, Oliver Ponce and Jimmy Turturo came out and got the crowd riled up by playing ‘Dialogue with the Star’ by In Flames. They played the metal song flawlessly on the guitars and dedicated the song to all the girls in the crowd with braces...(Continued HERE)

by MICHELLE NATACHIO '15 (March 2010)

Do Not Wait, But Do Approach
Soeng Ae Hong

Do not wait, but do approach.

So many faces, so many minds. But so many dreams that needs to be found.

There’s no use of having a dream:

Without positivity, there’s no future.
Without passion, there’s no heart.
And without effort, there’s no place to even start.

Be positive, be passionate. Be faithful to yourself.

Put in your all to achieve what you desire.
What your heart desires,
and what your soul truly desires.

The New Student Councils

The newest councils formed consist of students from the 7th, 8th and 9th grades, with Mr. Lakhaney as the advisor. They function just like the Junior and Senior Councils, planning events for the school. Their main purpose is to plan trips and dances for the younger grades as well as to raise money for the school by planning these events. Aleksandra Pisarek, an 8th grade member says, the council “was created to plan special events for the younger grades in BSGE. We plan trips and dances as fundraisers.” At the meetings, members split up by grade, but work together to plan big events. Now BSGE has a council to represent the 7th, 8th, and 9th grades. If you are in one of those grades and would like to join, Freshman Council meets every Tuesday in room 304.
