Is there something wrong with me if my favorite color is orange? 

Pumpkins, sunsets, and goldfish are all awesome and orange. However, politically speaking, orange is not the most popular color in this day and age. But generally speaking, it’s a pretty solid choice. And it is the new black.

Is a hotdog a sandwich and is cereal soup?

First, many people believe that a hotdog is a sandwich, and they would be completely incorrect. As the Oxford Dictionary defines it, a sandwich is “an item of food consisting of two pieces of bread with meat, cheese, or other filling between them, eaten as a light meal.” And the hotdog does not have two pieces of bread meaning that it is an open sandwich. However, an open sandwich is not truly a sandwich. This is because the lack of bread fails to truly sandwich (v) anything and it usually requires utensils of some sort. Now, is cereal a soup? The aforementioned dictionary defines it as “a liquid dish, typically made by boiling meat, fish, or vegetables, etc., in stock or water.” and cereal is not boiled in any way. Sorry to disappoint, but a hotdog is not a sandwich and cereal is not a soup.

What do student representatives do?

I have just started as a student representative so honestly, I’m not entirely sure. But I do know that we will be making changes for the better! We just hosted an event for 9th grade students to help allow students to meet each other, and there will be many more -- hopefully, we can get more people to join them too!

Are old dolls creepy?
