Dear Mrs. Burke:

It has come to my attention that the Legend yearbook is accepting applications and in need of a section editor that is able to design layouts, assist other staffers and make the book an overall successful publication. Please find enclosed my resumé for review as I feel I am able to demonstrate these qualities, making me the right person for the job.

Working on the 2012 Legend yearbook has taught me many skills: how to successfully manage and meet deadlines, work with other staffers, write stories and use InDesign and Photoshop. I was able to use these skills throughout the year and incorporate them into all of my work. This experience has proven to be useful while on staff, and would be an essential asset for an editing position.

Being a previous staffer, I understand the dedication involved in making the book and am well aware of the work an editor puts into each section. I strongly feel that I am able contribute the same amount of effort. I enjoy helping others as well as creating new designs and ideas that can be used in the book. Being an editor would allow me to use these skills to improve the section and help make next year’s Legend successful.

After reviewing my background and the skills I have to offer, I would love the opportunity to meet with you in person. I feel you would be able to get a better idea of how I can be a good addition to next year’s editing staff. I would appreciate meeting with you at your convenience. Thank you for your consideration and I hope to hear from you soon.

Respectfully yours,

Olivia Rees

PERSONAL ESSAY

After picking my classes freshman year, the last thing I expected was for journalism to catch my attention and draw me in. I had always liked writing and figured It couldn’t hurt to give the class a try. All I can say is that looking back, being on yearbook has taught me countless skills and lessons, not only regarding journalism but also in my everyday life. I’m constantly learning from my mistakes and striving to improve everything I do. Just because not every deadline was met doesn’t mean I didn’t take something from it. Whether it was how to manage my time or stay on task, I feel like I was able to overcome any previous issues to make deadline another week. I can’t say that the journey has been easy, but it’s definitely rewarding. The dozens of hours spent all seem to pay off when you look at the book in print and know you were a part of making it. Dedicating so much time and effort to journalism gives me hope that it will play a role in my future. I enjoy writing and designing, and just because I won’t be using those skills to make a yearbook, doesn’t mean they won’t affect my life in some other way.

PERSONAL ESSAY

SELF-ANALYTICAL EVALUATION

Seeing how fast a year goes by can be shocking, but what’s more shocking is to realize how much you can learn in 10 short months at school. Being on yearbook has taught me a multitude of skills that I know I will take with me in years to come. I’ve learned how to meet deadlines, work with others, and manage my time to help make a successful publication. Meeting deadline was the hardest skill for me to grasp, yet by the end of this year I feel like I finally have the hang of it. After the fist half of the year I understood the reasons I had trouble meeting deadline and worked to fix those problems. By managing my time, getting all my interviews done first, and writing copy at home I was able to successfully meet deadline the second half of the year. Another skill I learned was how to work well with others. I feel like this is one of the most important skills to master because you are constantly working with others when on staff. I shared two deadlines this year and each were met on time. I was able to divide the work evenly with my partners and communicate with them so we were always on the same page. The last skill I learned was how to manage my time. You have to understand the fact that class is only 49 minutes long. That means it’s essential to get everything done at school that you can’t get done at home. Once you have interviews done it’s easy to write your copy and captions at home. While all of these skills were proven useful in a yearbook setting, they can also be applied to other circumstances outside the classroom. No matter what, you are always going to have deadlines through out your life, you will always be dealing with others and it’s always better to learn to manage your time sooner than later.

REFLECTION 1

The page I chose as my most significant piece of work would be my deadline three profile on Willow Cheek. Although this page took a while get started, I feel like it’s the best representation of my work and turned out better than I could have hoped. The most difficult aspect about this page would have to be the fact that I didn’t know who the profile would be on for about a week into deadline. This put me behind, but with help from Channa and Kayla I was able to catch up on the grading. You can see from the first edit that the copy needed to be reworked a little. Writing copy was something I struggled with up until this deadline. Considering this page was a profile and made up of mostly copy, I figured the sooner I conquered writing stories the better. I added more quotes and details to make it interesting, and feel like the story was one of the best I have written all year. Overall I am happy with the design and think I portrayed the Willow’s talent in an original and creative way.

student found creative outlet through art Hands covered in chalk as dust flew around the

classroom, sophomore Willow Cheek created her next project. In Drawing I, students contemplated the possibilities for the next art assignment they would create.

From a young age, Cheek had always had an interest in the arts, specifically in drawing.

“Art was always my favorite class and I’ve always done well in it since I was about 10,” Cheek said. “When I was little, my mom used to paint a lot; a lot of people in my family are artistic.”

As a hobby, Cheek drew in her free time, but also at school where she utilized a class period to do just that. Artwork became another way for Cheek to express herself both at home and at school.

“Drawing is probably my favorite, but I also like painting, ceramics and music,” Cheek said. “[The best thing about art is] the ability it gives you to convey emotion and symbolism through color and imagery rather than words.”

Cheek displayed her thoughts through her artwork without having to write them down; it allowed her to speak volumes without saying anything.

“[Art] helps me to express ideas that I can’t express in words,” Cheek said.

Cheek’s preferred mediums ranged from oil pastels, watercolor, colored pencils, tempera paint, henna and chalk. Although her main focus was drawing, Cheek attempted to broaden her skills by working on different projects dealing with these mediums.

“I wish I was better at watercolor, pen and ink. [They] are harder to control than other mediums,” Cheek said. “Drawing offers a lot of mediums and variety in the techniques you can use.”

The average piece of art took up to two weeks to finalize, but Cheek liked to put in extra time and effort to get the result she wanted, one that she would be proud of.

“I keep working on a piece until I’m satisfied. I’m always really critical [of myself and] of what I’m doing,” Cheek said.

Cheek planned to keep drawing as a hobby, but was also interested in going into Advanced Placement [Studio] Art in the future.

“This would be a great opportunity to get into an art school,” art teacher Nicole Moitoza said. [olivia rees]

REFLECTION 2

One page that I feel could still use work is my deadline four labs spread. Overall, this page caused a lot of stress because of the very few pictures there actually were of labs. It was hard to find a dominant and I had to set up an experiment for the watch and learn. It would have been much easier if I asked people to take pictures of labs earlier in the year. I think it’s a perfect example why you should plan ahead because having no pictures means you can’t write any captions, and that put me behind on a lot of my work. Also, I feel like the body copy could have had a better angle. I don’t think the story is poorly written, but I know personally I could have done a better job on it. In the end I feel like the page turned out okay, but it took a while to get there and I would have definitely changed the way I handled it.

REFLECTION 3picture one

T he reason I picked this picture because I feel like it is one of the best I took all year. It was even printed as the dominant on the boys swim page. The way the boy’s arm is around his head creates a frame around his face. His other arm is stretched out straight, making a leading line across the photo. The rule of thirds makes this picture interesting because he isn’t directly in the center, he is in the lower left-hand corner. The boy fills the frame, and it looks like he is actually swimming across photo. Lastly, this picture has a creative angle because it was shot at his side when he came up to take a breath.

REFLECTION 3picture two

REFLECTION 3The reason I like this picture because I feel like it shows how competitive track meets actually are. It has a rule of thirds because both runners are not directly in the center. This photo has a good center of visual interest as well as repetition of the trees in the back-ground. The track creates leading lines and makes it look like they are running across the photo.

REFLECTION 3picture three

REFLECTION 3The last picture I picked is also at the boys swim meet. I like this picture because of the leading lines created by the pool lanes. The center of visual interest is not in the center, making a rule of thirds. The red and blue in the background also create repetition. Overall, I feel like this is one of the better pictures I took this year.

REFLECTION 4

REFLECTION 4This year, I feel like I was an asset to the staff because, in addition to getting my work done, I always tried to volunteer to help someone if they needed it. There were many times throughout the year when problems arouse and different editors asked people if they could help out. When Channa needed help getting head shots for quote pages, I looked up all the students classes so someone would be able to easily find them and get their pictures. Weather it was a little task, like doing a cob, or more important like helping Delaney hand out fliers to save the book, I tried my best to be available whenever times got stressful. The fact is not everything always goes the way you hope. There were times when people helped me because they saw I needed it. No matter what, I felt like the entire staff had each other’s back and I wanted to be sure I was doing my part.

REFLECTION 5

REFLECTION 5

One hardship I was faced with this year was deadline three when I was unsure who my profile was going to be on. After the person we originally picked refused to answer any questions and directly stated he did not wish to be In the book, I was left unsure of who we would use for about a week into deadline. I don’t think I have ever been so shocked or upset coming back from an interview. Being a new staffer, I began to get nervous while everyone started working on their deadline except for me. After sending multiple emails and even asking for help on BBC, we finally got a suggestion from an art teacher about one of their students. Although deadline three was probably the hardest to get through, it was the one I learned the most from. Unexpected things do happen and there is no way to prepare or it. Being placed in a situation like this taught me to be patient and keep my head up, because not everything always goes as smoothly as you hope. If something like this were to happen again I know I would handle it differently, but that’s only because I have learned from this experience. In the end I was happy with the final result. We ended up finding a student with an interesting story and covered it in an original way.

REFLECTION 6

REFLECTION 6In my mid-term, when asked my greatest weakness my immediate answer was keeping stress at a minimum. The first half of the year was back to back deadlines and at certain points, I began to feel overwhelmed managing yearbook as well as six other academic classes. I tended to focus on all the small things at one time instead of completing one task and moving to the next. After recognizing this weakness in my midterm, the second half of the year I worked to improve it. I began to plan ahead before deadline came. By making sure I had all my pictures and interviews, I was able to turn in work on time and as a result, I made all three deadlines the second half of the year. Staying organized and focusing at one thing at a time was the easiest way to not stress out and stay on task. Looking back on this weakness, I can’t help but say that I feel I was successful in improving it. The second half of the year went smoothly and I kept stress at a minimum.

CSPA Gold Circle:Y7. Sidebar WritingI chose to submit this story on Marvin Bracy because I think it is well written and was my favorite to write all year.

Junior Aaron Turman clutched the baton in hand as he lunged towards his teammate, senior Marvin Bracy. After a swift hand-off, Turman slowed to a halt and Bracy sprinted down the pavement in the final 100 meters, widening the gap between his opponents for another gold finish.

The boys 4x100 meter relay team took first place at the Lake Highland Invite with a time of 42.91 seconds, the Lake Brantley Invite, 42.44 seconds, as well as the Winter Park Relays, 43.88 seconds, earning points in their events and adding to the team’s overall success at each meet.

At each meet, junior Devin Thomas sprinted the first 100 meters, followed by senior Corey Davis, Turman and finally anchor Bracy. This combination was a major contributing factor to their triumph as a relay team.

“They have confidence in each other because they have run together for the last two years,” head coach Josh Shearouse said. “They also play other sports together, so they have a good chemistry, and they work their butts off.”

Their continued success and mutual goals motivated them to strive towards a state title within their events.

“Our closest opportunity to win states [is] this year,” Turman said. “It humbles you to know you can’t win every day, so you go back out there and win [when you can].”

Talent ranged farther than the 4x100 team though, and

If I don’t clear it, I get disappointed and motivated to clear it the next time,” Henders said. Henders set a personal record of 9’0”. [3] shots, shots, shots. During the Wildcat Open meet, sophomore James Chris Veguilla throws shot put. “[I like] being able to achieve my distances over the weeks and to keep getting farther and farther,” Veguilla said. Veguilla placed fourth and threw 38’2”. [4] full sprint. In the Winter Park Relays, junior Adam Laxton runs the 1600 meter medley. “If I do bad, then I let everyone else down, so there is more pressure than when you are running your own race,” Laxton said. The relay team placed fifth in the 1600 meter medley with a time of 4:04 minutes.

Brace 10.05 seconds and 2.2 wind assistance. His wind-legal best is 10.28.

“[Bracy’s work ethic] is very intense. He completes workouts with enthusiasm and a strong will to get better each time he trains,” school coach Jerry Williams said.

Although Bracy’s training schedule and workouts helped him make a record in the 100 meter dash, his favorite event was the 4x100 meter relay.

“I like the 4x1 because it’s one of the most exciting events due to all of the lead changes,” Bracy said.

As Bracy’s high school career came to an end, he looked toward his future: running track and playing football at Florida State University, and his ultimate goal of competing in the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, England.

Bracy qualified for the Olympic trials in Eugene, Oregon, June 23-24, where he will compete against current University of Florida running back Jeff Demps, the national high school record holder since 2008.

“I’m very excited about it,” Bracy said. “I’ve always been compared to him, but this will finally settle it.”

At the shot of the gun, he sprang out of his block and onto the track with 100 meters to go. The fans hushed in silence as he passed his competitors at the Texas Relays meet, earning first place and breaking his personal record once again.

Senior Marvin Bracy’s elite running career began sophomore year when his friends suggested he try out for the track team.

Bracy, unaware of his speed at the time, decided to give it a go.“I really didn’t like the sport at all. I always heard I was fast, but

not track fast,” Bracy said. Since then, Bracy’s career as a sprinter only grew. Coaches and other

athletes began to notice the young runner’s talent as he repeatedly won school track races and contributed points to his team’s overall score.

“I was averaging about 30 points a meet, so I was showing a lot of leadership,” Bracy said. “It’s quite an honor because I work really hard and that shows that hard work pays off.”

Bracy won the U.S. Junior Championship, June 23-26, 2011, with a time of

take off. Junior Joshua Green runs the 110 meter hurdles at the Brian Jaeger Elite Classic. “I’ve gotten way better [at hurdles] since my freshman year. I’ve dropped a second in my hurdle time and that’s good for any athlete,” Green said. Green’s personal record is 16.30 seconds.

other likely state competitors racked up points in their events. Junior Jagger Shepherd competed in the high jump and took first at the Wildcat Open jumping 6’4”, and the Lake Highland Invite with a personal record of 6’6”. Junior Joshua Green made points in his events as well, taking second in the 110 meter hurdle at the Wildcat Open with 17.39 seconds.

Long distance runner sophomore Burkhardt Helfrich was another asset. Helfrich took first in the 3200 meter at the Freshman/Sophomore Metros on March 17 with a time of 10:43.17 seconds.

“I run my races and try to score points,” Helfrich said. “I feel good [about my success], but I’m not where I want to be; I haven’t reached my goal for track.”

With states on their minds, the runners continued to practice in preparation for the upcoming competition, hoping to improve their times and break their records.

“[I hope they] get better at every track meet and go as far as we can at the state meet,” Shearouse said. “I think they have worked extremely hard and I’m proud of them.” [delaney arkeilpane and olivia rees]

The giggling girls approached junior Benny Borrero, boldly asking for a picture to prove to the Facebook world that they met the infamous Twilight star, Edward Cullen, played by Robert Pattinson. “Even my mom’s friends [tell me I look like him],” Borrero said. “I guess we have the same hairstyle, and sometimes people tell me I dress just like him.” The resemblance was uncanny, and Borrero was often mistaken for Cullen even in his classes. “Mrs. Tauriello called me Mr. Cullen all the time in her class,” Borrero said.

Renzo

Strutting down the hallway, junior Renzo Ramos was often mistaken for That 70’s Show star Fez, played by actor Wilmer Valderrama.

“I do sort of resemble him. When I saw the show, I was like yeah [I look like him],” Ramos said.

Not only do they look alike, but neither are from the United States. They are both Latin American, yet Ramos is from Peru, while Valderrama is of Columbian and Venezuelan descent.

Double-takeThere is a superstition that somewhere in the world, there is another person that looks just like you. People today know this as their doppelganger, or twin. Although some may never find their look-alike, those with celebrity doppelgangers are constantly reminded of who they resemble. [olivia rees]

Walking along the streets of the Dominican Republic in the summer of 2011, sophomore Baylee Thomas was mistaken for celebrity singer and actress Miley Cyrus. On the mission trip, many natives noticed the resemblance, and thought she was Cyrus’ Disney character, Hannah Montana.

“The little babies [in the Dominican Republic] would point at me and say ‘Hannah Montana’,” Thomas said.

Others have also told Thomas she looked just like Cyrus. Besides her appearance, Thomas and Cyrus shared a similarity in voice.

“We kind of sound the same, that’s why people think we [are] alike,” Thomas said.

The spotlight hit sophomore Rebecca Gage as she began singing for an audience that was struck by her resemblance to singer Demi Lovato.

“I think it is a compliment because she is really pretty,” Gage said. “People used to tell me I looked like her all the time; not as much anymore, but I still get it sometimes.”

Being musically inclined and having an interest in writing and singing songs also paralleled Gage with Lovato’s persona, transcending the similarity.

As students walked past sophomore Gabriela Daszewska Smith, they stole a second glance, making sure singer Rebecca Black wasn’t on campus. The mistake was one Daszewska Smith was used to, but not flattered with. “I think we have different faces, but we have the same hair,” Daszewska Smith said. Smith found others’ comments on the resemblance more offensive than funny, as she didn’t consider Black attractive. “They don’t mean to [be rude], but I really wish they wouldn’t tell me that,” Daszewska Smith said.

student found creative outlet through art Hands covered in chalk as dust flew around the

classroom, sophomore Willow Cheek created her next project. In Drawing I, students contemplated the possibilities for the next art assignment they would create.

From a young age, Cheek had always had an interest in the arts, specifically in drawing.

“Art was always my favorite class and I’ve always done well in it since I was about 10,” Cheek said. “When I was little, my mom used to paint a lot; a lot of people in my family are artistic.”

As a hobby, Cheek drew in her free time, but also at school where she utilized a class period to do just that. Artwork became another way for Cheek to express herself both at home and at school.

“Drawing is probably my favorite, but I also like painting, ceramics and music,” Cheek said. “[The best thing about art is] the ability it gives you to convey emotion and symbolism through color and imagery rather than words.”

Cheek displayed her thoughts through her artwork without having to write them down; it allowed her to speak volumes without saying anything.

“[Art] helps me to express ideas that I can’t express in words,” Cheek said.

Cheek’s preferred mediums ranged from oil pastels, watercolor, colored pencils, tempera paint, henna and chalk. Although her main focus was drawing, Cheek attempted to broaden her skills by working on different projects dealing with these mediums.

“I wish I was better at watercolor, pen and ink. [They] are harder to control than other mediums,” Cheek said. “Drawing offers a lot of mediums and variety in the techniques you can use.”

The average piece of art took up to two weeks to finalize, but Cheek liked to put in extra time and effort to get the result she wanted, one that she would be proud of.

“I keep working on a piece until I’m satisfied. I’m always really critical [of myself and] of what I’m doing,” Cheek said.

Cheek planned to keep drawing as a hobby, but was also interested in going into Advanced Placement [Studio] Art in the future.

“This would be a great opportunity to get into an art school,” art teacher Nicole Moitoza said. [olivia rees]

Why do you do track and field?

Athletes comment on their favorite aspects of

track and field.

Niko Banks, junior“I like the track meets and running against other schools. You work all week and you get to see if you’re better than other teams.”

Michelle Duncan, junior“[I do track and field] to stay in shape for cross country. I like track because it is all different sports together at a meet. I [also] like the different workouts because it makes it interesting with all of the variety.”
