50 Questions I Have For Culver
Culver

It may have only been 8 months since I hung up my kilt, straightened my ring and walked through that long-awaited arch, but nonetheless, I am a Culver grad and I am proud to be one every day. The oppurtunities I was given to travel, lead, and learn is something not every high school student is given and for that, I feel blessed. However, there are still numerous questions I have for Culver, so I decided to compile a list of... The 50 questions I have for Culver!

Disclosure - this in no way meant to be mean, but instead, some good fun.

1. Why do the guys march to breakfast? Some of them only have to walk a couple yards...

2. What would happen if the grass for one Parents' Weekend did not magically turn perfectly green? Would the world come crashing down?

3. Was that screening of "Tom Brown of Culver" necessary?

4. Can I get unlimited rides from Quella?

5. Can I select the next concert series?

15. Can I have that cheesecake recipe?

16. What is actually in baked ziti?

17. How did the harkness tables fit into the humanities classrooms? Is there a "build your own harkness table" kit?

18. Why is Mark Sailing one of our notable alums? He got kicked out and has been to arrested more times than his character on "Glee"....

19. Should I choose an apple or a granola bar?

20. On a scale from 1 to 10, how "Dead Poets Society" is our school?

21. Why does Corky write in all caps?

22. Do I REALLY need to take the PSAT as a freshman?

23. Why can't we wear other school logos on civvies nights?

24. Was the class of 2016 really that bad? Don't answer that...

25. Why are the bananas always green? And don't say it's because people like them that way...

26. If Culver was Hogwarts, who would be Snape and Dumbledore?

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college.

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
