Shout Out: <strong>Chatterbox</strong> Staff and Sponsors<br />
by Stephany Arias<br />
Senior Reporter<br />
This year, we feel that <strong>Chatterbox</strong> is the best it has ever been!!!! This is due to our hard working staff, guest faculty and student writers, our adviser, advertisers, and our great<br />
sponsors who have made this paper a success. If it were not for their hard work, <strong>Chatterbox</strong> would not be nearly as diverse and appealing. Getting this paper in each of our students‘<br />
hands takes a great amount of time and hard work from each of our staff members, but it also takes a large amount of money to get it printed. As such, we are sending out<br />
our love and a big ―Shout Out‖ to each of our sponsors. <strong>Chatterbox</strong> is simply the best, and without them it would not be possible.<br />
Our current Platinum Level Sponsors for the <strong>2010</strong>-2011 <strong>Chatterbox</strong> sponsors are Mark Bartlett,LLC; First National Bank, The <strong>Ruston</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> Alumni Association, and<br />
the Garrett Foundation.<br />
Our Gold Level sponsor is <strong>Ruston</strong> <strong>High</strong>‘s own Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA), Chapter 617.<br />
Our Silver Level sponsors include the <strong>Lincoln</strong> <strong>Parish</strong> Sheriff Office, the RHS Business Dept, and our adviser and his wife, Lloyd and Christy Bruner.<br />
“Fallen” into This Book<br />
by Emily Moore<br />
Arts Reporter<br />
Fallen by Lauren Kate is a wicked awesome story. This book will blow others in the teen fiction genre out of the water. The fictitious creatures in this<br />
story are not so fictitious. In this book, angels, whom many people believe in, make for a more realistic adventure. As a forbidden love more memorable<br />
than Romeo and Juliet, it has a way sick plotline and some seriously rad action that makes this book a five star and soon to be best-seller. Film industries<br />
have already started plans to turn this gripping novel into a major motion picture and there is no question why.<br />
Luce Price is a teenager with a heavy burden trailing her to the boarding school she‘s sent to. Sword and Cross is a reform school for troubled teens that<br />
introduces a whole new world to Luce; it is a world where fiction becomes reality. Nonetheless, this isn‘t the Twilight series; there are no werewolves or<br />
vampires. However, Luce does have her own ―Edward‖ and ―Jacob‖ to deal with in the form of Daniel and Cam. Daniel makes clear that he isn‘t interested<br />
but Luce is sure there‘s something there. Cam appears perfect and he‘s available, and Luce is interested, but her connection with Daniel always comes between<br />
them. Something seems strange at Sword and Cross and Luce starts to wonder if there is something wrong with her. What she doesn‘t know is that there‘s a battle for her<br />
heart brewing, as well as a much more significant battle unseen by humans. Some notable characters appear and bring with them some unforeseen twists. People Luce swore she<br />
could trust betray her and her avowed enemy is actually on her side. Fallen leaves readers in high anticipation for the sequel Torment. This book is a MUST read and it simply<br />
cannot be missed.<br />
Beauty is Pain<br />
by Jocria Thompson<br />
Social Reporter<br />
Beauty is pain when you have to wake up every morning,<br />
Beauty is pain when you do not know how to do your hair,<br />
Beauty is pain when you cannot find anything to wear,<br />
Beauty is pain when you have ten minutes left,<br />
Beauty is pain when your mom is shouting at you to get on the bus,<br />
Beauty is pain when have no jewelry on your body,<br />
What is beauty to me?<br />
Beauty is when you have an hour to get dressed,<br />
Beauty is when you can find that perfect outfit for that perfect date,<br />
Beauty is when you have just enough time to put on that beautiful make-up,<br />
And beauty is when your date tells you ―Honey, you look absolutely beautiful.‖<br />
Obsession<br />
by Shamario Daniel<br />
Club Reporter<br />
Obsession is something that makes you want to cry<br />
Like drinking hot tea without any ice<br />
It makes you want to holler like a toddler without his mama<br />
Obsession is almost like a disease<br />
And sometimes makes you want to fall to your knees<br />
I wonder how bad it feels but sometimes the thought moves you like a wheel<br />
Obsession couldn‘t get any more worse<br />
Than an annoying four year old little brother<br />
If you don‘t‘ know how this thing called obsession feels<br />
You should go run through an open field<br />
Obsession is something serious don‘t let it catch you<br />
Or else it won‘t let you go, and that‘s a promise.
