  1. What are your hobbies?

Some of my hobbies, I enjoy singing and acting a lot. I also am in a band with a couple friends. 

  1. What are your most and least favorite classes?

In terms of my most favorites I enjoy IB film a lot as well as English and choir. My least favorite probably has got to be Spanish, just because I’m not very good at it and I’m in a level above where I should, that I feel is, I don’t feel I’m quite talented enough to be in this class but I’m sure in it. 

  1. What do you want to do in the future?

Oh, that’s tough, I’d like to work in the arts. Maybe specifically in the theaters. As a playwright or an actor. Maybe get into screenwriting, for television. Feel like that would be very fun. 

  1. What did you do this summer?

This summer I went on a really big trip with my family, It took about three weeks. Down from Portland here through Carmel into Santa Fe, and back. It was very fun but very tiring.

  1. What is a story you like to tell that happened to you?

Have you heard of that old film “A Trip to the Moon”? From like, one of the first films ever. In the book “Hugo,” they show that picture and it’s terrifying, you just flip it and it’s there. I was so terrified I covered up every inch of that page in sticky notes so I wouldn’t have to see it and I still never read it out of fear. 

  1. What made you so interested in acting and the arts? What inspires you?

I was just always interested in writing and especially making characters and also I always loved to sing even from a really young age, so eventually I just decided to go do it and overcome my fear about it. It worked out a lot better than I could have ever hoped.

Guest post by rising sophomore Sandra Thein, photos courtesy of Kelly Ryu and Emilie Kono I love those college YouTube videos: “2018 COLLEGE DECISION REACTIONS - IVY LEAGUE AND MORE!” The enthusiasm and gratitude the applicants radiate upon hearing where they will be spending the next four years of their lives is inspiring and motivating for a high school student like me.  I'm also inspired by students closer to home. Graduating senior Emilie Kono is a student athlete with a love for science and music. "Bo th in and outside of school," says Kono, "my family, friends, coaches, teachers and mentors have all been incredibly supportive in pushing me to reach my full potential; I can’t thank them enough! I knew that I wanted to be at an academically high achieving school and Stanford was an excellent choice. Between the incredible professors, facilities and some of the brightest students in the nation, I knew that I would be lucky to join them.” The only

By Faith Pauken, www.cardinaltimes.org staff member All photos by Faith Pauken Photojournalism is a form of journalism that provides images to aid in the telling of a story or news. Pictures contribute to the overall perception one may have about an article. By giving the reader a visual, they’re able to imagine what the event looked like, whether that’s showing what 100,000 people look like during a protest, or the face of an artist. During my journey through photography over the last year, I’ve been able to expand my knowledge on what makes a good photo, how to track people down and how to manage unexpected obstacles. Football/Sports Photography My personal favorite event to photograph for the last two years has been football. The fall sports season is packed with events having football easily be the most popular event on a Friday evening which makes it an important event to capture. If someone misses one game they feel like they missed out; this is where my job

Frankie Lopez Profile By: Alexander Rozas When you picture a star soccer player’s life, you might imagine them attractive, popular and smart. However, soccer star Francisco Lopez was depressed, bullied and during his professional career was riddled with sports anxiety. Now he helps kids who are going through the same mental problems he did. Lopez remembers that the peak of his soccer career was in his senior year of high school where McMinnville High School made the finals. “Before that, not many people came to the games, but during the finals over 4,000 people came to support the team,” said Lopez. The game ended with McMinnville beating the powerhouse Jesuit 8-7 in a penalty shootout. It was a dream come true. “Winning the State Championship was the best feeling of my life and I haven’t been able to replicate that feeling or experience,” said Lopez. “It really brought the community together.” Lopez ended up bringing the trophy home with him and slept with
