The Things You Miss About MVL After You Leave
MVL

Whether you're a current student or have already graduated, you can't help but love these 22 things and will probably miss them after you leave.

1. Mr. Hermanson’s choir speeches

We were incredibly blessed to have you too.

2. Homecoming Dress Up Days

There aren't very many opportunities to dress this crazy in college.

3. Having the Senior Farewell Dance outside

Best dance of the year.

4. Kevin.


If only someone would be there to tell me "get to class" every morning.

5. The student section

No one does the roller-coaster cheer like MVL.

6. Being best friends with all of your teachers

You're supposed to act professional with your professors....and that's no fun.

7. Having friends in every class

You actually have to be nice to strangers in college.

8. Dessert Club/MVL cookies and donuts

EAT THEM WHILE YOU STILL CAN

10. The click-clack of Mr. Plath’s shoes

"INCOMING"

11. Mr. Morgan’s tracksuits

He inspired my entire college wardrobe.

12. The Veteran's Day program

Something you may not be grateful for until it's gone.

13. Lyceums for Spring Fever and Homecoming

Shoutout to Stud Co for always making Spring Fever and Homecoming some of everyone's favorite high school memories!

14. Our amazing band

I took for granted all of the incredibly talented musicians.

15. Homeroom

Friday homeroom was always looked forward to.

16. Seniors giving Chapel


I promise we were more interested in their message than this picture depicts.

17. Getting to eat lunch outside

Even if you got attacked by hundreds of wasps.

18. Having Study Hall with Mrs. Wong


Doesn't that smile just brighten your day?

19. Powderpuff

It's always fun watching the Seniors cream the Freshmen (or the other way around).

20. Cinco de Mayo Party

Probably the weirdest tradition at MVL, but definitely one of the best.

21. After Prom

It's basically the best sleepover party you'll ever go to.

22. Spanish Food Days

No homework and you get to listen to Shakira.

As you can see, MVL is a pretty special place. There are a lot of examples of why it's so unique...these are just a few personal favorites. Take time to appreciate your friends, teachers, classes, and overall experience at MVL. It's one you'll never forget!

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
