So when I heard that mtv was doing a show at my former high school, Cypress Bay, i couldn't believe it. This really puts Weston on the map!Memories of my time spent there came rushing back like the release of the bulls from the gates in Spain. First of all I was amazed at how new the school still looked. I was a sophomore in the inaugural year and still remember the smell of the fresh paint that filled the air of the halls. Ahh the smells. For about a second they showed "The Stairs". Man that stairway stank!!!! there were so many times where i caught people smoking in there lol
Then realized that my senior year i had a graphics arts class in that very room with those exact macs. I sat back by the window i loved looking out and watching what went on in the library.and the teacher had two different colored eyes, one grey one blue, my cinematography teacher was deaf in one ear, Crazy go nuts!!! I never took year book though. The show , especially the b-roll, reminded me that that school has some really good lines. I remember getitng very similar shots to those on the show for the Friday Show.
Ahh T.V. Production. Never will i forget the stuff that went on during my time in that course. We were a very crazy bunch of kids. And yet dispite everything we somehow came out with a show with stories and host and all every friday. I remember my first segment was a piece focusing on the first home game between us and western. Here's a shout out to Mrs. Z (not stocklosa lol) she was the best!! I did my reflection paper! lol I have some of the stuff i did in that class so i might post em so you can see and laugh!! "Good evening" LOL
It was really cool seeing my school, principal and the best security guard Larry he was in a war forgot which one but he was in the hebrew army at the time!!He was shot in the neck and to survive the doctors had to take muscles and flesh from is leg so he could have movement in his neck. Man can't contain all these mems!!! and I just realzed no one reading this even went to cypress, my badOver all its a good show it captures the drama of high school and i can't shake that terrible feeling of: "I should say some thing" while some one is being made fun of behind their back that just crazy. I'll be watching
sorry for the huge brain fart lol (my definition that is)
