Goodbye for 2014-15



And so Year 3 of Blog Club draws to a close. At times we had over 20, but by the last day we were down to our core 10 bloggers who had been coming in most of the year. In a few cases, they'd been coming in for several years.

Today we bid a fond farewell to two eighth graders, CrossbowPig and Detox Pig. Both joined in sixth grade and were charter members of the Blog Club, together writing the blog's weekly slew of "hate mail." CrossbowPig even gave us our blog's name -- RAUC Talk. Good luck in high school, fellas!

We had many sixth graders to start the year, but by the end it was just Detox's brother CyborgDemon. Most of the club were seventh grade girls: subsonicpupet, the Master of Everything, and lizardsnicksnape giggling in one corner, American Rebel and CingerBread in another (usually joined by texiieee) being seventh grade girls, and twin sisters Juliana F & Caitlin F keepin' it real in the hallway.

People seemed to enjoy themselves, whether it was for the camaraderie, the goldifsh crackers, or Mr. Tobin's controversial choices in musical selection (horrible bands like Nirvana, Radiohead, and the Beatles). The blog hit its 500th post this term, and aside from our beloved Pigs, everyone conceivably could be back next year.

So until we meet again, have a good summer, and blog on!
