Time To Tumble

After the school bell dismisses students, senior Lauren Widjaja heads to her second home, Olympia Gymnastics for her daily practice. Widjaja frst stepped foot in gymnastics class at the early age of 2 where she instantly fell in love with the sport. With enough practice under her belt, she joined her frst gymnastics team, allowing her to push herself further as an athlete with the added support of coaches and teammates. Although she has done a variety of events throughout her career, the one that she looks forward to most is swinging on the uneven bars.

Junior Lily Warenberg’s musical repertoire consists of the piano, the bass and the drums—her favorite being the bass. She performs with the band Beekman, assuming the role of both bassist and drummer. This performance took place in the Duck Room Nov. 26. Preceding Beekman were the bands Good Question and Buy Her Candy. "Being in a band is like an experience I can't describe, especially playing on stage," Warenberg said. "It's exciting, amusing, and a great creative outlet to write songs with other people. They push you to be better [and] to have newer ideas and it's really fun."
