Ecliptic Times: Vol II, Issue IV

Ecliptic Times:
The Life, Times, and Happenings of the Sophomores of MHS
Vol II, Issue IV
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 4
Not really

Real issue coming Sunday. Sorry guys! My bro came back, and I've been spending all time with him and my family, and we've been doing so much that I haven't had the chance to update! I figured it was better to do it one day later and have it be better than to have a really lame entry today. See you Sunday!

EDIT: AS SOON AS I CAN!!!

Thanks to Anonymous and Joseph for their idea for the paper.

Paper News. News that you can use.
There is absolutely no way I am shutting down the paper. Even if it doesn't have a deluge of readers, I'm doing this for myself as much as for anyone else. So Ecliptic Times will stick around.

School Life
People have been starting to think about colleges. Being early is never too early, so it might be a good time to at least start planning now.
The Fall Play Is He Dead? is very good! It is performed expertly, and is quite funny! If you have not yet seen it, I recommend that you do; it's certainly not a waste of time.

Story Time
Chapter One, part 3
Dead tired, that is. He had just sprinted through all of Brookshine and had finally arrived at the factory. And now it stood before him - it seeming a giant and Jaroa but an ant. Because Jaroa had turned into an any to remain unseen as he sneaked in. So he started to crawl into the factory. He was surprised by the lack of any signs of life. Despite the smoke pouring out of the top, the factory was completely still. Or so he thought...

Closing Thoughts
Sorry about the stuff I don't have, but its late and I haven't had enough time to organize exactly what I want in those sections. Expect to see them next Friday!

Cause no one reads this.

None.

I'm thinking of shutting down the paper.
I never get any feedback from you guys.
I have no idea if anyone besides Joseph is even reading it any more.
And if they're not, it seems like a waste of time.
Unless I receive strong feelings for me not shutting down, I may either update very infrequently or not at all.
I'm sorry.

School Life
No school next Wednesday.
Thanksgiving coming yay. Thursday and Friday off the week after next.

This might be the last issue! Oh what fun.

There will be so many contributors next issue you cannot believe.

Volume II has begun! Thanks to all of you that have been here the whole time, but if you're just joining I welcome you as well. This volume will be similar to the first one, except MORE AWESOME.

School Life
No school next Wednesday.
Watch out for sicknesses, guys. Stuff had been going around that could make you throw up. Literally!
As always, Epic Battle is going strong. The first dungeon raid missions take place this Sunday! If interested in joining, please speak to us. We're always glad to have more people. And, finally, all you commoners may SEE THE CHARACTERS!!! This will get so many people to join, I am sure.
Hackysack Hero takes place every lunch and most brunches at the Senior Glen. Some of these guys are really good. DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO BE A HACKYSACK HERO?!?!?

Grats to all the many people who let me know they beat the polyatomic ions quiz on the first try.

Contests
Uberfarmer has won the contest, and, with it, 5 DOLLARZ!!! The next contest starts now!
Contest 2: Contributing and correcting
There are now two ways you can go for the 6 DOLLARS. You can either find a mistake, for 1 point, or contribute to the paper for 3 points! I will determine what counts as a true contribution and what counts as point fishing. Good luck!

As props to Uberfarmer, I am posting up some videos of him and his stylish friends. Watch, and say "cool" or something.

Ok, I really have no idea about this one.

Story Time
Chapter One, part 2
In the letter, Daniela had described the changes coming over Brookshine. It had started as just a small shop in the center of town. But in mere weeks it had spread to a great factory, belching out steam and smoke. And slowly, ever so slowly, residents of the town began to disapear. At the time the letter was written, there was only Daniela and six other citizens out of a town of 50. So now Jaroa was rushing to save whatever was left of Brookshine. Assuming, of course, that there was anything left to save!

This week's quote:
"Can I have a square of that [Hershey's] chocolate bar?"
"No, but you can have a triangle" (Breaks off a rectangle and gives it to the other person)
"....What? This isn't a triangle"
"Um... Nooooooooo...... I mean rectangle. DX"
You know who you are ;)

Closing Thoughts
YOU HAVE TO GIVE FEEDBACK TO WIN MONEY. This was the only way. I'm sorry. Not really. I mean... I'm doing this as much for myself as for you guys, so what happens doesn't really matter I guess? I'm just rambling. Hope you enjoyed the Issue!
