Seniors say goodbye to Oakton and hello to their future
snailmail from the editors W
outlook staff adviser lauren luna editors in chief
ell, the time has finally come for us to say goodbye to Oakton, the Outlook and all of our readers. It’s at major transitions like these that people tend to look back and romanticize their experiences, changing the bad times to good and the mediocre to phenomenal. But let’s not call it something it’s not. It was high school: It happened, it was bearable and now it’s over. Somehow, high school has been dubbed the “best years of our lives”, but we seriously doubt it. We have many, many years ahead of us, and the best is yet to come. High school, while enjoyable to some, is merely a stepping stone to bigger and better things. It is a necessary experience that helps provide a basis for the people we are destined to become, but it is what we do with this basis later in life that really matters. It would be hard to look back at our time at Oakton and not comment on the wide range of athletic programs and the emphasis everyone places on them - but that’s what we’re going to do. There are so many intelligent, talented students at Oakton, and we can only imagine what they will achieve in the future. From quick-witted debaters to champions of charity and captivating performers, the charisma and talent of the class of 2013 is something to be proud of. We are honored that we were able to contribute to our class’s legacy by producing the Outlook, and we are confident that we are leaving it in good hands next year. No, we won’t miss the shiny, speckled floors or the leaky ceilings once we leave Oakton, but we will miss the people. We hope you will too, because whether or not you hated everyone, loved everyone or simply didn’t care, we went through high school together…and we survived. Last but not least, we want to thank our wonderful adviser who has guided us through a difficult financial year and helped us recognize the value of hard work and respect. We cannot imagine that there is anyone more qualified to oversee the Outlook, and we are beyond thankful that she was our adviser.
regards, Gabriela Driscoll Michelle Lorusso Madlin Mekelburg Marilyn Yang

Announcement of the graduation speaker for the class of 2013 The graduation speaker for the Class of 2013 will be Adam Moyer, the founder of Knockaround sunglasses. Moyer attended the University of California, San Diego in 2005. After moving the West Coast, Moyer founded Knockaround sunglasses as a stylish alternative to expensive, brand name sunglasses. “I think students will be able to relate to him due to the fact that he graduated here so he knows what they went through,” said AP Government teacher Meghan Baumann. This year’s graduation speaker is notable for being younger than the speakers of previous years. “I think they are going to relate to him because of his energy and his being in their shoes relatively a few years ago as opposed to people that have gone through several careers,” Baumann said. Moyer grew up in the Northern Virginia Area and graduated from the University of Virginia in 2004. Be sure to come to graduation on Friday, June 14 and listen to Moyer. courtesy of knockaround.com

Oakton Writing Center hosts Barnes and Noble fundraiser
On Sunday, June 2 the Oakton Writing Center held a book fair at the Barnes & Noble in Fair Lakes. This event provided the students with an opportunity to buy summer reading books and celebrate the end of the school year with different activities such as face-painting and bookmark creations. “We needed to raise funds for the Writing Center to send the tutors to conferences, to get resources...but primarily to raise money to train the tutors,” said Beth Blankenship, the OWC’s advisor. “It was very successful. We are planning to [hold another book fair next year].” Aside from having storytelling, performers such as Chris Graham and Oakton Boys Acappella made an appearance. “Evelyn [Yang] asked me to play [at the book fair] and since you can’t say no to that face, I agreed,” said Graham. “Unfortunately the day before I was performing with singer/actress Abigail Breslin, so my life kind of revolved around that for a while. So I guess it’d be fair to say my prep was minimal.” Graham is a singer and songwriter, and had a few original songs up his sleeve, including his latest single “Pines.” “To be honest, a little dream of mine has always been to perform in a bookstore so dreams do come true,” Graham said.

Seniors vote on 2013 summer reading assignment
This year’s summer reading book is “The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind” by William Kamkwamba. The theme of this year’s book assignment is “people who make a difference.” “The candidate books represent a range of human experience and model the power of service, determination, persistence and courage,” said English Department Chair, Colleen Eddy. The 2013 summer reading assignment was voted upon by faculty and staff before the three final book choices were given to the 2013 graduating class to decide between. “I don’t understand why the graduating seniors get to choose the book we read,” said junior, Courtney Moody. “At least give us the benefit of the doubt and let us pick from a selection of books.” courtesy of dylan hunzeker

Mind the gap
Unlike the majority of her class going to college in the fall, senior Mona Rasooly will be taking a gap year.
hile most of the graduating class is packing for college, senior Mona Rasooly is preparing for an entirely different adventure, a gap year in Israel. “I will be serving as a guard in the department of security at the Baha’i World Center, BWC, in Israel,” said Rasooly. “As a security guard, I will be posted at the Baha’i holy shrines in Haita and Bahji. I’m leaving for Israel July 2 and will be there for exactly 12 months.” Though there are few requirements, not everyone who applies gets accepted. “It is a very selective application process, as people from all over the world apply, and there are a limited number of positions,” Rasooly said. “They look for altruistic and dedicated applicants who are involved in the improvement of their community.” Being a follower of the Baha’i faith, the youngest independent religion of the world, impacted Rasooly’s decision to take a gap year. “Born and raised in an immigrant Baha’i family who escaped religious persecution, I’ve grown up with a strong belief in justice and in the unity of mankind,” Rasooly said. “The BWC has been very instrumental in assisting Baha’is and other religious minorities who are facing religious persecution. I decided to serve at the BWC as a token of my appreciation for everything that has been done for my family and countless others.” While many people would be getting cold feet about the big move, Rasooly remains excited. “I’m very eager to move to Israel,” Rasooly said. “I’m
karli gillespie spotlight editor reina datta copy editor
excited to make new friends and to have this erin preaskorn staff writer once in a lifetime opportunity to fulfill my dreams of serving at the BWC. I’m looking forward to learning about other cultures and gaining an international perspective on current global issues from other Baha’is that will be serving there.” Yet even with all the tensions in the Middle East, Rasooly’s parents stand behind her as she prepares to leave. “My parents are very supportive of my decision to do a year of service in Israel,” Rasooly said. “They are sad that I will be separated from them, but they understand that this is really important to me.” Even though Rasooly planned on going to Israel from the beginning, she still applied to college with the rest of her peers. “I applied to William and Mary, and I was accepted,” Rasooly said. “I was overjoyed to be granted a gap year from them, because William and Mary is my dream school.” Even with seeing all her classmates preparing to go to school in the fall, Rasooly says that she has no regrets. “The Baha’i faith also teaches that ‘any work or profession carried out in a spirit of service to humanity is considered the highest form of worship,’” Rasooly said. “This experience will grant me a gratifying purpose in my life and a focused temperament that will guide me throughout my college years.” karli gillespie

rom November to May, Work Awareness and Transition (WAT) students, junior Hoang Phan, senior Adam Barber and sophomore Jennifer Becker ventured off campus twice a week for valuable work experience at the Department of the Blind. “I went there from about 9:30 to 10:30,” said Phan. “To get there I rode the bus with my friends.” Phan, Barber and Becker completed a variety of tasks at their job site including filing forms, scanning documents and organizing shelves. Their teacher, Donna Mullins, assisted them on their tasks. “We would check in with the ladies at the front desk and we would find out what our task was that day,” said Mullins. “I would just point the students in the right direction.” Along with learning the job tasks, the students learned important things about what it is like to have a job. They learned of the behaviors and actions that are spotlight expected from working individuals. “I learned how to be on time,” said Bar6.11.13

ber. “I also learned how to handshake.” On their last job site visit, the students received certificates in honor of their achievements. “I felt proud and happy,” said Becker. “I think I did a really good job [there.]” torri marquis

After what most Rick Riordan fans would call a train wreck of a film, fans are holding their breath to see what the latest edition of the sixbook series, coming out on Aug. 7, will have in store. Fortunately for the movie, expectations are exceedingly low, and if the scriptwriters have read any critiques of “Percy Jackson: the Lightening Thief ”, then hopefully they will stick to the actual plot of the story.
