Are you excited for the holiday season? I know I am! Despite the never-ending list of products available to be consumed, you might have some trouble deciding what you want for the holidays. To help you out, I compiled a list of wishes for the upcoming winter months!
Off-campus lunch for all grades
The freshmen and sophomores are jealous, and I’ll be the first to say it. I speak for all of us when I say we want the freedom of going into Tenleytown and getting Cava for lunch, and we want it now.
Less Dior Sauvage
Let’s say it together: this cologne makes you smell like a male manipulator. According to Dior, it smells like “an ozone blue sky that dominates a white-hot rocky landscape,” but to us, it smells like the guy that love-bombed and ghosted you. Respectfully, when I smell this, I turn the other way and bury my face in my hands.
The old grading policy
Consider this a formal petition to DCPS: we miss our old grading policy! Especially for some of us (*ahem* the sophomores) who are in our first year of APs and failing miserably. Please, we’ll do anything, just let us pass AP Psychology.
Less PDA
Don’t get me wrong, you guys are a super cute couple, but nobody wants to walk into English class at 9 in the morning and get PDA thrown in their faces. No offense, but we’re exhausted, and you’re nasty.
Escalators
We can’t all be student-athletes, and I know your back hurts from walking up four flights of stairs to first period every other day. This school needs an accessible option for those of us who have absolutely no stamina in the morning, and escalators seem like the perfect option.
Walking faster in the hallway
If you’re one of the people who walks slowly in the hallways, we have beef (not actually, but you’re annoying). I can’t tell you the amount of times I’ve been late getting to class, lunch, or even getting out of school because of the slowpokes in the hallway. Pick up the pace! Act like this is the Olympics and you’re Gabby Thomas because if I have to hire someone to shove you out of the way, that’s what I’m gonna do.
These are my ideal items for the holiday season, but if anybody has any ideas for some more holiday demands, come find me! I hope you guys have an amazing holiday and break, with or without the smell of Dior Sauvage. •
