By Carissa Fortin
[dropcap]M[/dropcap]May 31st 2018. Teachers and staff stood waiting to let students into the cafeteria for what would possibly be the best night of their lives. Students stood in line, in their fancy attire, chatting with friends and waiting eagerly for one of the biggest events of the school year. I’m talking about the South Carleton Oscars.
There was a photo booth where students could get their pictures taken. They had plenty of goofy accessories to choose from. The food was from Cosmos Souvlaki and consisted of rice, salad and the souvlaki. Dessert was cookies of many different kinds.
There were games that involved yodeling. I went up for that. This particular game was to figure out table order. There was a game of flip the cup which consisted of having to flip a cup without using your hands. There was another game that involved shaking ping pong balls out of a Kleenex box by using the backside.
