Senior Spirit Week vs. Stranger's Meursault's Apathy!
In this blog I will be comparing the seniors to Meursault. This week, as everyone knows is spirit week. And we should be channeling everything The Stranger is not. Throughout the stranger, Meursault has a constant flat attitude and is very apathetic towards life, he also does not stay emotionally connected to pretty much anything, whether it be, people, family, love, or even a hobby, he seems to not really care much, and maybe its just that he is protecting himself? I believe he is actually really passionate, and has love for people, but is afraid of getting hurt. This is twisted way of protecting himself. So moreover, in spirit week, SENIORS MUST DO THE OPPOSITE!!! We must give everything we have, put our hearts and souls on a silver platter and hand it to the judges! Channel everything Meursalt is not!

Alex, I definitely agree with you that Meursalt has an odd way of showing emotions and that he puts up some type of guard as a defense mechanism. In spite of our loss in the point system this year, I have to say and I think that many would agree, we put forth the most spirit and energy into this year and that we pushed through all the way to the end. I know that we definitely gave it our all and as you said we put our whole hearts into everything cheer and every moment. I am very happy to say that we DID NOT follow the self-destructive path of Meursalt, but instead, we stood strong and demonstrated a class unity that can and never will be broken!
