That Time of Year Again...

O Thanksgiving

The day we gather around the table

And feast

We laugh, we pass the turkey round

The joy of the season of thanks is upon us

Once more.

It’s that time of year again. The beginning of the Holiday season. The season of thanks, the season of giving, the season of joy. Things are going well here in the most ghetto town in California. Even though we have just now gotten to the official day, our mood has been in the Thanksgiving mood for at least a week. And now that this day has gotten here, we are ready for Christmas. But the Christmas season for many of us doesn't start until tomorrow, but the Christmas music has been going for about a month now.  

            For Job, we were put into five teams and we made short films based on the life of Job. They were all so funny. They were all hilarious, actually. We had so much fun making them. There was so much laughter during the filming process. And watching them was so fun. We had an award ceremony afterwards. The Jobie Awards. The grand prize was the Golden Artichoke. While we didn't win the Golden Artichoke, we did win a ‘best actor’ for Kenny, who played Job.

The first quarter of CBSB is almost over. We start Kings next week. Then the next book is unknown to us for now. But there are so many things in store for us. The second quarter starts after the Christmas break, and the second quarter’s tuition is due at the beginning of the quarter, in January.

The time of joy

The time of giving

The time of cheer

The scent of citrus

And cinnamon

Is soon upon us

Enjoy it

With love and happiness

Wishing well to all who pass.
