Review: Christmas CDs
By Kristin Chulick
Christmas music is heard from the day after Thanksgiving until Christmas
day. Everyone seems to participate and to sing along with the catchy
tunes of the famous Christmas songs. There are those loveable Christmas
songs that every artist seems to place on their Christmas CD.
*NSYNC’s Christmas CD is one of the best selling Christmas soundtracks.
Both adults and teenagers seem to adore their original version of
“Oh Holy Night” as one of the best arrangements ever done. Mariah
Carey’s beautiful voice does the Christmas songs justice with her
unbelievable range. She brings much to each song, especially “All
I want for Christmas is You.” Her vocals are strong throughout this
entire song and soundtrack. Christina Aguilera’s Christmas CD “Silent
Night” displays her beautiful vocals and the rest of the CD is upbeat
Christmas songs. Whitney Houston, who is one of the best female artists
to ever live, has one of the best Christmas soundtracks; there is
not just one song that you can pull off of the soundtrack that is
better than the rest, because all of them are eloquently sung. There
is such a wide variety of Christmas CDs out there so it depends on
your taste in music.

JV Boys Soccer: Starting
Fresh
Usually, the boys J.V. roster is filled with quite a few freshmen.
As there is no freshmen soccer team, it is not at all unusual to see
some of Valley's newest students squaring off against some teams,
like Mitty and Bellarmine, who are chock full of sophomores and even
juniors. Naturally, putting freshman and juniors together seems slightly...
unfair. Things are going to be different this year.

Teacher Survey: Most
Embarrassing Holiday Moment?
Embarassing moments happen to everyone. They are not something
you can avoid or prevent, they are just part of life that most people
have learned to accept and shake off. Christmas brings joy but it
can also bring several embarrassing moments that a majority of people
would much rather forget. The events of Christmas such as the putting
up of the Christmas tree, or maybe trying to put together some of
the presents that say "assembly required" can bring those
most memorable Christmas moments.
