The Christmas cheer is here. Are you decorating for this holiday? SLC 5, Construction and Design, is starting to put up their decorations. SLC 5 is decorating the E and F wing with many wonderful ornaments and lighting up the School with colors of Christmas. It's always great to get incorporated with the holiday cheer and help your SLC decorate to brighten up your school spirit.

Christmas tree up and ready.

Ho-ho-ho!

These are some photos taken around Burbank showing winter time at our school.

This is a photo of two girls all bundled up.

Many people at Burbank get warm drinks to stay warm and get into the winter spirit.

Lots of people at Burbank bring blankets to keep warm.

What I want for Christmas

What I want for Christmas 

by Trina Hooker

DMC: Devil May Cry

New DMC: Devil May Cry poster that I also wish for.

Okay, now I know everyone on here has been doing "What I want for Christmas" posts on here, and now it's my turn to share. The thing I want, however, is a bit more realistic.

I want the new DMC: Devil May Cry. All I want to do is cuddle up in my blanket and spend Christmas Break with Video Gaming's favorite, rebooted demon.

(All for the price of $30.)

Christmas Wish

By; Daveana Owens

What I want for Christmas isn't really much. All I want for Christmas is for my family to come together and celebrate like how we used to. Every Christmas we used to enjoy the love in the air, joy and laughter opening presents but now that has come to the end now that everyone is gone. Christmas always got the whole family together to share all the love.

This year will be the first year with no one to celebrate with. I wish I could take everyone back to my mom's house and continue cherishing our family moments with eachother. That's all I want for Christmas.

Special Ed. Thanksgiving Dinner

Special Ed. Thanksgiving Dinner

by Trina Hooker

The children aided with adults enjoying their meal.

The week before break, teachers of the Special Ed. hosted their annual Thanksgiving Dinner open to all Burbank students and teachers alike. This event was so heartwarming and loving, it'll hold a special place in my memories of Burbank.

Mr. Polo.

I was referred to Mr. Polo as he was the "Boss" man of this event. After asking for his permission to attend the event, I immediately began snapping picture after picture with my iPhone. I would have asked Mr. Hull for a nice camera, but there were too many photo oppertunites appearing.

Mr. Corona, VAPA (SLC 7) Counselor

Little by little I started to get wrapped up in the bits of happiness that was compressed into the tiny room. "Oh, everyone's just there to eat." a fellow VAPA teacher had said, but I thought differetly. As I snapped more and more pictures, every thing I captured on camera was awesome. Not one bad photo. Teachers and students from all SLCs came together and chatted excitedly inside and out side of room. Even Mr. Corona posed for a picture!

All of the delicious food served at the Dinner.

Students making their plates.

There was so much going on I wanted to take pictures of everything! So many jokes were splashed I had an unremovable smile plastered on my face. "Noooo~" A girl said weakly. "Don't take my pictuuuure~!" and then she bursted into laughter. 

I then proceded outside of the crowded room, saying "Newspaper Club!" to everyone I could and only got a shot of Mr. Lazaga, the gym teacher.

My former gym teacher, Mr. Lazaga.

I tried to get a picture of Mr. Polo pigging out on his plate, but Mr. Lazaga nudged me playfully in the back, giving me parental look. I scrunched up my eyebrows and smirked and falsely stomped back into the tiny room, snapping more pictures. The food seemed to disappear.

The leftovers of a good meal.

A student gawking McClatchy's beard.

I went into B4 and got some good pictures of the participants in there also. I caught Mr. McClatchy talking to a student, at this time his was three days into Fear the Beard challenge.

Two students looking awesome for a picture.

Mr. McElheney and Mr. Mamola

"Pretending like you're eating! She's taking a picture."

After I took a picture of this group they requested me to do
the same photo again on the pink cell phone.

Everyone grabbing for a delicious portion of the offered food,

I buzzed around each table asking to snap a picture for the Titan Ledger. Laughingly, they agreed and posed in their best formation, "OK"ing me for the shot.












Actually I wanted to get a plate, but by the time I was done snapping photos I was full-

of happiness!

I hadn't even eaten anything for lunch, but I was just full for some reason. I was just so happy and beaming, I didn't need to eat!

I just know one thing, and that's the fact, I will be covering this story again next.

(And maybe get me a plate!)

What do I want for Christmas?

By Chee Xiong

Christmas, my child, is love in action.
Every time we love, every time we give, it's Christmas.
-Dale Evans Rogers

It's the time of the year of joy, colorful lights, evergreen conifer trees, carols, ginger bread, cold winters, and PRESENTS! Everyone loves a thoughtful present. Christmas is the best time of the year to receive such wonderful presents yet the hardest question to answer is, "What do I want for Christmas?"

There is a lot that comes in mind to what I want. Yet the most important thing for me is what Christmas was made for. Giving. I want to see the smiles and emotions that springs up in a persons face when I give them a gift. I want them to understand the "thank you" that is put into the gift. If I had the possibility to give, then it would be the greatest Christmas for me.

Overall, all I want for Christmas is a great winter break to spend with my family and for everyone to have a great Christmas.

Christmas is a big deal in our community. It helps brings families together to share wonderful memories of gift giving. Christmas is the time of the year to share the most of what we share in our family.
