THE SUMMER I TURNED PRETTY (2023) Love Affair - 2x7 dir. Megan Griffiths.

[bearterritory]

REDWOOD CITY – The No. 4 California women's rowing team dominated the duel against No. 7 Washington sweeping all five races Saturday morning at the Redwood Shores in Redwood City. With the Bears' win in the V8+ race, the Simpson Cup, which goes to the winner of the varsity eight race, comes back to Cal for the first time since 2019. Cal's 2V8+, 3V8+, 4V8+ and V4+ also notched wins in the duel. This marks the second time this season the V8+, 3V8+ and V4+ defeated Washington as the two faced off at the San Diego Crew Classic earlier this month.   "Washington brought out the best in us today," Cal head coach Al Acosta said. "We've done quite a bit of racing and travel over the last three weeks, so I was a little concerned about how much juice we'd have for this one, but the team did an amazing job of going stroke for stroke with the Huskies early and then extending the margin later in the race. Four years ago, when our seniors were freshmen, we got swept by UW, so it's very gratifying to see the seniors get this one. Now that we're halfway through the season I think we're in a good spot, but we have some big races coming up and it's not going to get any easier so we will need to continue to get faster."   In the V8+ race, both boats were even through the first 20 strokes before Cal took a two-seat lead in the first 500 meters. As the boats approached the 1,000-meter mark, the Bears were ahead by a half boat. Cal kept the pressure on over the third 500 meters and extended its lead to a seat of open water. The Bears maintained that margin to take the victory in a time of 6:08.8 and bring home the Simpson Cup.

In the matchup of the 2V8+, it was fairly even off the start with Cal taking just a one-seat lead over the first 20 strokes. As the boats hit the halfway mark, the Bears kept their lead and went ahead by two seats. Cal kept the pressure on over the third 500 meters and went ahead by a half boat before extending its lead to almost a full boat over the closing 500 meters to take the win in 6:20.2.   In the 3V8+ race, it was tight over the first 500 meters until Cal took a four-seat lead at the 1,000-meter mark. The Bears were able to extend their lead to open water over the third 500 meters and held that lead to finish first in a time of 6:33.2.   In the 4V8+ duel, the first 500 meters were close before the Bears took a three-seat lead by the halfway mark. Cal was able to extend its lead over the third 500 meters and went ahead by a bit of open water to take the win in a time of 6:46.9.   In the V4+ race, Cal got off to a good start and went ahead by two seats within the first 20 strokes. The Huskies were able to walk back a seat and pulled nearly even over the first 500 meters. By the time Cal hit the halfway mark, it was ahead by almost a boat length. The Bears continued to press and built an open-water lead over the second half of the race to get the win in a time of 6:46.9.    The Bears will have next weekend off before competing in the Big Row against No. 1 Stanford on May 4 at the Redwood Shores.   Results   V8+ 1. Cal – 6:08.8 2. Washington – 6:12.6   2V8+ 1. Cal – 6:20.2 2. Washington – 6:23.2

Like many before her during the Golden Era, Peggy Entwistle came to Hollywood looking for her big break. She was an actress in Broadway but wanted to make it on the big screen. She struggled to set herself apart from the plethora of other actresses. Her first big role in Thirteen Women was cut from the final film and she was distraught.

Overcome with grief, on the night of 12 September, 1932, 24-year-old Peggy hiked to the Hollywood sign. She climbed to the top of the letter “H” on a ladder left behind by workmen and threw herself off. “I am afraid, I am a coward. I am sorry for everything. If I had done this a long one ago, it would have saved a lot of pain. P.E.” her suicide note read.

Since her death, there have been numerous reports of her ghost haunting the area around the Hollywood sign. Megan Santos recalled jogging along Griffith Trails one night when she was overcome by a “weird feeling.” She felt shivers before seeing “this woman with blond hair and she seemed to be like…. walking on air.” According to legend, those who witness her ghost are overcome by the strong scent of gardenias jogger. It was said to be Entwistle’s favorite perfume.

Looking for Alaska

TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2023

Looking for Alaska (2019, USA)

Directors: Sarah Adina Smith, Rachel Lee Goldenberg, Brett Haley, Ami Canaan Mann, Clea DuVall, Megan Griffiths, Rashaad Ernesto Green & Josh Schwartz

Writers: Josh Schwartz, Warren Hsu Leonard, Stephanie Savage, Ashley Wigfield, Kirk A. Moore, Leila Gerstein & Kendall Rogers

Mini-review:

There are a lot of good book-to-movie/TV adaptations. However, there is something that's a lot rarer: an adaptation that improves on the original in pretty much every way. Looking for Alaska is one of those. Going for a miniseries instead of a movie means that everything is much more fleshed out, from the characters to the setting and the themes. The show also perfectly captures the atmosphere of the novel. I've always felt that atmosphere was what made this book so special and popular, and this adaptation made me feel exactly the same. I must admit, though, I still don't like Miles as a lead character, like at all. But, since the other characters get as much focus as him, I didn't dislike him as much as I did in the book.

What's more, the cast is absolutely spectacular. They all nail their roles. I seriously can't think of many teen movies/shows with such fantastic acting. Kristine Froseth and Denny Love are particularly showstopping and I was really surprised (and disappointed) to see they didn't get any award nominations. They're truly that good. Lastly, I want to talk about the setting. I just loved Culver Creek, the pranks, the locations, everything. I honestly wish they would have turned this into some sort of anthology where we follow a different set of Culver Creek students in each season. Seriously, the setting has so much potential. Anyway, this is easily one of the best book adaptations I've ever seen, and I'm really glad I decided to watch it.

[sophia-sol]

Do you have any opinions on which of these I should prioritize? Or which are not worth reading? Or, perish the thought, books I haven't thought of which are worth adding to the list? If so please let me know!!

Education Fair at Ela Green School: Pathway to the US

Recently, Ela Green School hosted a foreign delegation as part of the “Pathway to the US: Education Fair,” which was one of the most eagerly awaited events. The primary purpose of the event was to take students, parents, teachers, and other interested people through what America has to offer within its institutions of higher learning. The event was a real triumph owing to the combined efforts of the delegates on a visit and the teachers from the school.

Esteemed Delegates and Their Contributions

In the course of the fair, there was a long list of delegates with knowledge of international education:

Megan Mankerian, founder and executive director at Global Leaders Collective

Sami Smith, Assistant Director for International Admissions, High Point University

Fred Griffiths, the director of international programs at Klamath Community College

Apurva Shaurya, Representative from RIT Dubai

Bryant Dowd, Representative from Chapman University

This is just to say that every delegate contributed to the knowledge rogue of the Ela Green community regarding the motives and procedures of studying in the United States, from course selection and university choices to financial management and scholarships.

Insights from Megan Mankerian

Megan Mankerian, with 13+ years of experience in international education, conducted one of the most lively and thought-provoking sessions in the training. Considering the students, she taught them how American education works and what benefits studying abroad brings. For parents, Megan organized a special session on issues such as financial resources, choosing the right course, and how IB students gain an advantage during the admissions process.

Objectives and significance of the visiting delegates

The major aim of the delegates' visit was to arm Ela Green students with the knowledge and tools that they need to take charge of their academics. The audience was intended to guide on issues such as:

Course selection and safe universities or institutions to consider: Sourcing for university courses suitable for students based on their interests and present and future career aspirations.

In financial planning and finding aid, Books, Scholarship, and Aid: Counseling on how to deal with the financial side of higher education and searching for available loans and scholarships.

Shaping of students’s profiles: How students can develop a strong academic portfolio and extra activities to increase their chances of getting admitted to top universities.

Direct engagement and networking: creating a chance for students to meet the university representatives, address queries, and build networks.

The Delegates' Address to the Ela Green Community

In their address, the delegates thanked the administration for the possibility of coming to Ela Green School and outlined the necessity of proper thinking before choosing a future path. They made a comprehensive put on how the US higher education system is, including the differences that are preset between the university, college, and community college. The delegates also spoke about academic requirements and academics, co-curricular activities, and financial needs. The students were prompted to not only focus on studies but all aspects of campus life, which is accommodation and adjustment to the new environment away from home.

The Role of Ela Green's University Counsellor

Amaya Lal, who was the university counselor at Ela Green School, helped in organizing this event. This made sure that the delegates delivered the most relevant issues and helped the students liaise with the university representatives in some ways. Amaya arranged each delegate at individual stands whereby students engaged the delegate, asking questions requiring precise answers.

Benefits to Ela Green Students

The students who attended the fair walked away with several key benefits:

Informed Decision-Making: Students were well informed on course materials, financial aspects, and university information that enabled them to make evident choices regarding the academic progress they wished to pursue.

Direct Interaction with University Representatives: Because there was a representative of the institution present, it was easy for students to express their concerns and receive satisfactory answers.

Understanding the Admissions Process: Such activities in turn enabled students to have a comforting knowledge of the U.S. university admission prerequisites.

Exploration of Financial Aid and Scholarships: Students became conversant with many financial assistance programs, including scholarship schemes, which are pertinent to strategizing educational objectives.

Profile Enhancement Tips: Advice on how to enhance academic and non-academic activities will help make any applications comprehensively competitive.

Exposure to Campus Life: Experiences on what living on a campus in America is like provided students with realistic expectations of accommodation and adjustment in a new culture.

Ongoing Support and Updates: Due to the completion of forms offered by the delegates, students guaranteed that they would receive further details about the regular application schedules and other important aspects.

Ela Green School students had a wonderful experience at the “Pathway to the US Education Fair” and gained the knowledge and the courage to tackle the difficult process of applying for and selecting a suitable university. Understanding that it is not enough for students to just attend school, the institution strives to ensure that all students can reach their educational and professional goals by providing them with such opportunities.
