Well, it's finally happened.
Yup, CC (Classical Consortium) now has an unofficial blog. Yeah, unexpected, I know. Anyway, this is where you can share any CC memories and stories, talk with friends, whatever. If you attend CC, you're more than welcome. Don't feel obliged to join, but don't let me or RB stop you. Don't even feel obliged to talk to either of us- we're kinda scary anyway ;) If you just want to connect with some friends, or see what others have to say, you've got free rein. Welcome to the unofficial CC blog.
P.S. This is a blog for YOU, CC students. Want to see something added to the blog? Just ask. Want to post? Just ask. I could continue, but this intro thingy is too long, anyway. ;) Enjoy!

So....
I have a plan! (stunning right?) to get more CC students in on the blog. It involves deception, espionage, assassination, and a coup.... not really. The REAL plan (though not as cool as the first plan) involves ryan asking his mother to include the unofficial CC blog in next CC's announcements. Since its Thanks giving break we have some time to streamline this. All in favor of a UCCB public launch comment with an Yes or no, reasons why on this post. Also post suggestions to plan here.
The Unofficial Constitution
Hey fellow CCers! It's RB, and I'm here to introduce a CC constitution for anybody that wants it. I'll post it here, but if you want changes, additions, and/or removals, comment or email me. Or comment for my e-mail and then I will delete my comment when you've sent an e-mail. After that confusing introduction, here it is: THE UNOFFICIAL CC BLOG PREAMBLE!
We the Students of the Classical Consortium, in order to form a most perfect unofficial blog, establish cyber-Justice, insure online Tranquility, provide for the defense of this URL, promote the general blog welfare, and firmly secure the Blessings of cyber-Liberty to ourselves and all present and future CC students, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the Unofficial Blog of the Classical Consortium.
Article 1 (concerning the powers of those who can post and of the admins) is coming soon.

The Life of a FEMALE L2 student
Hello Ya'll,
My writing skills aren't as good as Ryan's and Ben's so cut me some slack. You all know what it's like to be a 8th grade boy at CC; for girls, it's a completely different story. So here's my description of how L2 is coming along this year:
"TO LET ALL THE WORLD KNOW THAT JESUS SAVES!!!!" Every Monday morning, KLOVE is my alarm clock and BOY it scares me SO much. Slowly, I turn the radio off and walk very quietly to my closet, trying not to wake my sisters up, and start to whimper while getting the uniform on my body. Why does it have to be Monday?- I think to myself. After getting ready for the long day at school, a delicious, toasted bagel is sitting at the kitchen table waiting to be eaten. That sure gets me awake!
My sister, Rachel and I get in my dads shiny, new, red Acura. The whole way there, it's "Quaker party" time. Now let me explain to you guys what "Quaker Party" means. A lady I know grew up in a strange family. When she was younger, her mom would get stressed out because of the loudness in the house. So...she would yell, "QUAKER PARTY!" and the family would stay absolutely silent for at least 1 hour. To people who know me, staying totally quiet for 1 hour doesn't go well. Anyways, we pull into the church parking lot. The crates get out of the car and are dragged into the building. I pray, "Dear God, please help everyone at school today." and walk into the chapel room.
The chapel room is an interesting time of the day. There are many different groups that sit next to each other and talk during that day. During worship time, there is shoe-throwing, face slapping, and laughing. My friends, Summer and Hannah sit in the front row making funny faces at me while I'm on stage singing worship songs. My other close friends are usually in the bathroom making sure they look okay.
Then we get to the classes: I'm a girl so first i check my hair, make-up, and make sure I don't look too horrible. Then off to Critical Thinking. Here i will list a few ways to describe each class. 1. Critical Thinking: helpful, and there is really no other way to describe it. 2. Latin 1- ALIVE, the teachers quite funny (want some stories about her, ask me later). 3. Physical Science- fun, that's the class i have the most energy in. 4. Omnibus- satisfying and pretty easy. 5. Comp and Comp- enjoyable and fairly easy as well. 6- American Studies- factual, there is lots of information, and exciting. Those are the overall descriptions of the classes but it changes every week.
My friends at CC are Summer and Hannah. Summer is a very sweet, quiet (mostly), and caring girl. Hannah is a lot more outgoing, and is also very compassionate. They both share the same love for Christ which is always good. Of course, Hannah, Summer, and I sit next to each other every class and always have something interesting to tell each other. We pretty much talk about whatever we can possibly think of: what happened the past week, and how hillarious Jacob is...(hannah usually starts up a conversations about Jacob every week since her family is close to the Selvigs.) He has been mentioned in the past and here's how I can describe him: eclectic, "goofy", has ALOT of energy, and pretty NICE. Summer is a very sweet, quiet (mostly), and caring girl. Hannah is a lot more outgoing, and is also very compassionate.
So as a female L2 student, life is a bit more complicated than guys. Knowing how to style your hair every morning, making sure you don't look like a clown before school starts, and making sure people won't judge you from a behavior stand-point. Overall, I love CC and even though it is hard to get up in the mornings, it is a lot better than being public schooled (I know that from experience) and i love my friends. The people there are very respectful and easy to get along with. Hope this wasn't TOO long and now you know what it's like to be a L2 student from a girls perspective.
