High School traditions

Some stuff, but nothing overly cool....

We had a senior lounge. My class repainted it and added a ping pong table and fixed the pool table. You had to be a senior to even be in the senior lounge.

For band, we did a freshman "welcoming" (we couldn't call it initiation). Before I joined, it used to be crazy- TPing the houses, dressing up the freshman, making them sing for their sliverware at breakfast- hazing really. Then a couple seniors f-ed up royally, got in trouble with the cops, and messed it up for the rest of us. We just got to lamely decorate their front yards with signs and take them to breakfast.

For our Drama Workshop, in our dressing rooms, you got "passed down" a mirror that you did your makeup at. When I came in as a freshman, there was a free mirror that I got to have for the full four years. My junior year winter review- three freshman tried taking my mirror and I, in complete diva fashion, flipped out and took my mirror back. I later passed down my mirror to those three freshman.

Every year, there was always a senior prank, but nothing went down my senior year. Lack of communication I guess.

The monday after prom was the senior cut day and each year the administration threatened various things would happen to those who cut, but nothing ever came out of it.

For our Spirt Weeks, our class usually won everything- it made the classes ahead of us really pissed lol.

Overall, we really didn't have anything overly traditional- just typical.
