Editor's Letter

As each snowfake slowly meets its inevitable fate on the ground, it adds to the growing blanket of snow. In the same way, each piece in Pandora’s Box Winter 2019 issue ofers an intricate insight into the human spirit and creative expression, and together, the collective issue is a peek into the culmination of the refective and thoughtful nature of the Gunn High School student body.

This issue contains over 50 pieces of creative literary works, ranging from prose and poetry to artistic works and photography. Thank you to all of our contributors for boldly and bravely sharing new worlds of creativity and inspiration; without you, none of this would be possible. I would like to express my immense gratitude to our ofcer team for devoting countless hours to not just the production of the publication itself, but also to dedicating themselves to creating an encouraging environment that embodies the spirit of Pandora’s Box. A special thank you to Mr. Dunlap for his generous time, support, and guidance.

As we transition from winter to spring, we look forward to setting new goals as well as passing on the Pandora’s Box legacy. Like the melting of frost on leaves to early morning spring dew, like fnding new meaning in a story that you have read before, we invite you to fip through the Winter 2019 issue and enjoy an eclectic mixture of innovation and nostalgia that ofers a new powerful perspective on the human experience.

Yours, Rida Khawaja Editor-in-Chief 2019-20
