Oh, I missed you, old blog. No posts in February! I thought about you a lot, and meant to write, really I did, but it just never happened, and now look, it's March. Well, I'll make it up to you. I'll be on the road for most of March, with a lot of van time and nothing much to do but type type type. I promise, I won't neglect you again. Not for a few months anyway...
I thought about blogging today from Oregon City High School, where I spent 20 minutes accompanying (two different students) and five hours chilling between time slots. Oregon City High School is in an immense building. There are nine different wings, lettered A-I. They have two basketball courts, one of which is on the second floor (!) of the building. They have a beautiful concert hall and excellent music facilities. The major rooms (Gymnasium, Principal's Office) have their names printed in English, Spanish, and Cyrillic (I assume it was Russian, but I can't be sure). According to Wikipedia, over 2200 students attend the school. These students have access to a coffee shop next to the cafeteria, an ATM, and a store where you can buy school related items. I didn't.

I attended Oregon City HS, but definitely did not have access to any of the perks you mentioned. That campus is only a few years old; I graduated two years before it opened. It used to be home to only ninth graders until they expanded. The space is far nicer than the cramped hovel I knew!
