Stylin' Summer Trends

       Need a tip on what every girl should fill her wardrobe with this season? Cute tanks, jean shorts, and converse are a necessity for every fashion-lover out there. This season’s trends tackle another widespread problem too. Is your hair not cooperating? Tame your mane with this hot new accessory that works with straight, wavy, and curly girls; fedoras. 

        Don’t worry guys, fashion exist for you too! Bro-tanks and cargo shorts are the way to go to stay in style this summer. Swap out those Nike socks and Jordan’s for some flip flops and sunshades. Having a bad hair day? Problem fixed with a stylish snapback, or rockin’ fedoras. 

     Most teens practically live in the water during summer time. Whether it’s the pool, beach, lake or simple laying in the sun getting a tan, look fabulous with these new swim wear trends. Hawaiian pattern shorts are the way to go for guys. For girls high waisted and fringe will definitely make you stand out. 

Have a great summer, Bulldogs!

Cheesy Pick Up Lines






       Pick up lines...possibly the lamest invention on planet Earth.  Let's face it, bulldogs, who wants to be on the receiving end of a cheesy pick up line trying to figure out Do I laugh, respond sweetly, roll my eyes, or run away?  There are so many lame pickup lines being used everyday on poor, unsuspecting victims...some cheesier than others. We surveyed our teachers here at CTMS asking them what was the cheesiest pick up line they ever used or was used on them.  Here are the rather lame results:
 
  • “Are you on the McDonald’s menu because your McGorgeous?”
  • “How are you? [I’m fine] I know your fine but how are you?”
  • “Are you a library book because I’m checking you out?”
  • “Are you tired because you’ve been running through my head all day?”
  • “Your father was a thief. He stole the stars and put them in your eyes.”
  • “Hi my name is _______, but you can call me tonight.”
  • “Ive been told you have pretty eyes.”
  • “I have this theory. I talk to the prettiest girl in the room, and if she turns me down I work my way down. I’m starting with you.”
  • Heaven must be missing an angel...”
  • “You dropped your name tag.” *looks down at sugar packet*
  • “Your hands look pretty heavy, you should let me hold them.”
  • “I know you have heard of Batman or Spiderman. Well, I can be your man.”
  • “Can you hold this?” *opens hand* *the guy grabs the girls hand*

       By far, the most common response from CTMS teachers was “Did it hurt when you fell from Heaven?”  (insert eye roll anytime) 
       These are just a few of the many cheesy pick up lines out there. They’re pretty lame, and we're not sure anyone actually finds them successful, but who knows, maybe they might work for you. Go ahead, give it a shot if you want, and let the Journalism staff know how it goes.

Good luck, bulldogs!
