A 16-Year-Old’s Thoughts in 1995
This, a call to conformity from my high school newspaper The Claw, is embarrassing but not totally terrible, and I’m retroactively impressed by my usage of “laffs.” Enjoy?

Don’t be embarrassed! It’s a timeless commentary and pretty much on the money…

Excellent piece. I am retroactively enamoured by your 16 year-old self.
I think Mark Simpson would have been proud to have written that.
His concept of the ‘metrosexual’ is partly to do with the end of alternative youth ‘subcultures’ I think.

This article was a watershed moment in my young life! Okay, slight exaggeration, but I do remember reading it and thinking that I really needed to sign up for Journalism. Also, it’s just as good now as it was then, and I got a nice trip down memory lane recalling some of the “alternative” stuff that was going on at BHS back then. Memories!! 🙂

Laurie, that is awesome and flattering considering your distinguished high school journalism career. Those were the days…
