Clubs only meet once and only one person show up. The cops get called to your school because someone brought their baby teeth to school and left them in the science lab. Your Humanities teacher is dressed like a disco ball. The security guard can't say hi because he's TikTok live streaming. Atticus couldn't make it into school today.  Your SIP project almost worked out and was soooo close...]]></description><link>https://www.unaffiliatedtimes.com/post/you-know-you-go-to-sequoyah-when</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a0fd1562b5c18841b950199</guid><pubDate>Fri, 22 May 2026 03:45:50 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>laszlostein0</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Seeing Teachers in Public]]></title><description><![CDATA[by Laszlo Stein Sequoyah High School, Pasadena, CA There are many moments in our lives that bring about extreme awkwardness: meeting your girlfriend's parents, waving at someone who's not waving at you, saying “you too” to the waiter when he tells you to enjoy your meal. But all of those awkward experiences are overshadowed by seeing a teacher in public. There is no handbook for teachers, and there's no helpful Reddit board for students. So, when such different parts of our lives collide, how...]]></description><link>https://www.unaffiliatedtimes.com/post/seeing-teachers-in-public</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a0fcebd2b5c18841b94f837</guid><pubDate>Fri, 22 May 2026 03:41:45 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>laszlostein0</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Camping Trip Horror Stories]]></title><description><![CDATA[by Laszlo Stein Sequoyah High School, Pasadena, CA Twice a year, Sequoyah takes 25 to 50 horny, moody, and just generally hormone-addled teens into forests and deserts miles away from hospitals. And many of these students have unresolved issues with others in their grade. So what could go wrong?  Lucy P. ’26 has been at Sequoyah for her whole life. During her eighth-grade trip to Pinnacles, most of her group felt sick. “There was a spin-the-bottle game and someone was sick. And soon enough,...]]></description><link>https://www.unaffiliatedtimes.com/post/camping-trip-horror-stories</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a0fc9f8b883334b04e1c94d</guid><pubDate>Fri, 22 May 2026 03:22:31 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>laszlostein0</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[That's an Infraction!]]></title><description><![CDATA[by Laszlo Stein Sequoyah High School, Pasadena, CA There are three things I would ask God to do if I ever met him: 1) end world hunger, 2) create peace on earth, and 3) explain the Sequoyah infraction system to me in a simple and understandable way. Between my interview with the Dean of Students for Community Life and Arts Department Chair Viviana Palacio and consultation of the Student Handbook, I can confidently say that I now understand about 60% of the infraction system. But if, unlike...]]></description><link>https://www.unaffiliatedtimes.com/post/that-s-an-infraction</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a0fc2378fa816dacc7d45d1</guid><pubDate>Fri, 22 May 2026 02:49:46 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>laszlostein0</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Window Pain: Looking Back One Year After The Window Incident]]></title><description><![CDATA[by Laszlo Stein Sequoyah High School, Pasadena, CA Last year, on February 11th, 2025, June B. ’27, Grade Representative at the time, broke a school window. What could have caused this? A TikTok challenge? A lack of knowledge about glass? Revenge? It was five minutes into her Health and Wellness class, and June decided to prioritize her wellness and took a well-deserved break. Her soon-to-be boyfriend Nate D. ’27 and her friend Loella K. ’27 decided to join her. They sat on the benches looking...]]></description><link>https://www.unaffiliatedtimes.com/post/window-pain</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a0fbe188fa816dacc7d3bd1</guid><pubDate>Fri, 22 May 2026 02:23:54 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>laszlostein0</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why Everyone (including me) is Obsessed with Jeffrey Epstein]]></title><description><![CDATA[Laszlo Stein Sequoyah High School, Pasadena, CA A few weeks ago, a friend of mine at Sequoyah showed me a website called Jmail that he and his friends had been glued to for days. If you don't know what Jmail* is, you're probably a healthy, well adjusted person with better things to do than look through Jeffrey Epstein's emails, photos, flight history, messages, and Amazon purchase history. However I am not a healthy, well adjusted person and I wanted a break from doing my homework.
