But those things were some of the most memorable as well. It taught me how to better organize myself and manage my time, and I made a lot of friends I might not have otherwise had the opportunity to make.
In fact, we have almost nothing in common. There were only seven of us and we had an amazing time getting to know each other better and sharing lots of new experiences. That has always been my favourite thing about being a part of the Senior School Play, and really about RNS in general —. There were other mistakes and accidents that occurred as well, but the fact that we overcame them and created a show that I think turned out wonderfully, is a testament to the dedication and determination of our director, Ms.
Bell and the cast and crew. It was an incredible experience that I will remember for years to come. Overall, I just want to say thank you to everyone — Ms. Bell, the cast, the crew, and the audience. I hope you all enjoyed the ride, and, of course, learned the Importance of Being Earnest. Last year donors made a donation to RNS.
Support from alumni, parents, grandparents, faculty and staff, board members, governors, and friends of the school is crucial to the mission of Rothesay Netherwood School. While tuition is directed to basic operational expenses teacher salaries, utilities, meals, etc.
Our hope is that each family that has been helped by Rothesay Netherwood School will in turn assist us to touch the lives of current and future students. All donors will receive a receipt for income tax purposes in Canada or the USA. To be included in the Donor Listing, donations must be received before June 30, When living away from home, students broaden their horizons. They learn to become independent, responsible, thoughtful, and considerate members of a large, extended family. How long have you been a boarder at RNS?
Where are you from? Who is your roommate? Where is he from? Have you become close since living with him? There is a small age gap between us since he is a couple of years younger than me, but because of his mature and responsible demeanor, we get along very well. I have been very happy with every roommate I have had at RNS. What is your favourite part of being a boarder and living in residence on the Hill? My favourite part of living in residence is continuously being surrounded with great friends and peers. There are always friends around to have fun with and when study time comes around it is great to know that help with an assignment is just a knock away.
What is it like for a boarder to study and do homework? As a boarder, we have scheduled study periods each night, which I find very helpful. The residences are quiet during the study periods which helps me get my work done, and if we need to work on a group project or study with my peers, we can head over to the library. Every night there is also a teacher on duty in each residence which can be very helpful with assignments.
Houseparents are there for the good times and the bad times. What does it mean to you to have someone like this in your life while living away from home? Having Houseparents has been great for me since I have been a boarder. My Houseparents have made me feel welcome since my first day here, even when I began halfway through the year. It is great to have such supportive people.
How often do you chat with your family? How do you usually do this i. I am in contact with family very often. I text them regularly and I do my best to call them at least once a week. What sort of activities do you do together as a House that bring you closer together?
Living in Kirk House we have many house outings through the year, which help us become close and more comfortable with each other. We have played paintball, pool, gone to basketball games, and many other outings. Hanging out in the common rooms is also a great way to make great relationships in the house. What makes RNS so special to you? I love RNS because of the great, welcoming, and diverse community I am surrounded with every day. I will cherish the amazing relationships I have made here for the rest of my life. What is your best experience so far living on the Hill? I have made so many great memories since I have lived on the Hill that it is very hard to pick one.
I have loved playing on the sports teams and just hanging around campus with my friends, but my favourite experiences have probably been the great trips that RNS offers. On long weekends, we are able to sign up for incredible trips from going to see the Phillies, Flyers, and 76ers play in Philadelphia, to skiing at Mont Sainte-Ann and Le Massif in Quebec. I have made some of my best memories on these trips. Where is she from? Have you become close since living with her?
This year I live with Nakisa. She is from Dominica and. Last year, I had a Canadian roommate. She was a hockey player and thanks to that, I now know everything about hockey. We were totally different but at the end of the year we were really close. I am an only child, so it was something new for me to share space with someone. I feel that now I have sisters. I like that you are able to know and live with so many other cultures. In Quinn, there are 51 girls from all around the world and this gives you the opportunity to talk to them and learn about them.
Quinn girls become your friends and your family. One other thing I love is living on the Hill, and being able to walk around the campus and enjoy the beautiful views that we have here. Each day we have time for study from 8 to 10 pm and there is a duty teacher that is always there to help you in case you have questions about your homework.
You can also work with someone in the house and ask for help. This is one thing I love about Quinn. It can be difficult for someone who gets distracted really easy. I like that we have access to so many different things like the library, the duty teacher, or even your roommate. For me it has been really important because they are always there when you need them, no matter what. Every time I am home sick, I just talk with them and they make me feel as if I were at home with my Mom. I have had the opportunity to have two different Houseparents.
Glenn Beck - Wikipedia
Last year I had Mrs. McCarville and this year I have Ms. Young, and both of them have been really kind and have made me feel like I was home. I try to talk with my Mom every day after dinner just to tell her about my day, but some days I have so many activities or homework that I just text her.
We use everything from Face Time to emails and text. We actually try to send each other a letter but it takes a really long time to arrive in Mexico. One weekend we went out for dinner as a house and then we went to the movies. These are moments when the house has the opportunity to be together.
Also, one activity in which we work as a house is when we have Heads Rounds. The weeks before that we work together to make sure that our house is clean and nice. There are 51 girls and each day I am so happy I have the opportunity to be here and know each of them. RNS is special for me because it has been my home for two years.
I have so many things that make RNS the place that I have always wished for.

I have friends from all around the world and lots of memories from the Hill. The experience of being a border is amazing. I am part of a big community and I am so happy that I can call this community family. So what makes RNS so special for me? Every day and memory that I have here is really special for me. RNS is just an amazing place and I love to be part of it. One of my best experiences was last year when I had the opportunity to travel to Europe and visit cities such as Paris and Amsterdam.
I was able to visit museums and monuments that are related to WWII. Sharing this experience with Canadians from across the country, made this trip something I will never forget. When you live on the Hill, each day you have different experiences that you will never forget. I wanted to push myself outside my comfort zone, and the stage is thoroughly outside of it. I had always been a dancer, so becoming the choreographer was a perfect fit for me after I had to give up dance. As the choreographer I had to teach a lot of people that have had a lot of different dance backgrounds.
My passion is music, and I absolutely love musicals. I thought it would be a fun time to put on a show with all my friends and have a good time. I would try out for the musical, but I would always be down on my luck and I would get a role in the chorus. When Fall rolled around, I was hesitant to audition because I have been a member of the Varsity Field Hockey Team since Grade 9, but I also had my heart set on being on the stage. I decided to try out and see what role I would be offered. When I was offered a lead, I knew it was too good to be turned down. A lot of my friends were trying out.
As well, I had been a lead the two years prior, so it was natural that I would do a final high school performance. We were all part of a select group and we ended up sitting together quite often and spent more time with each other. I decided to try out for a lead role because many of my friends were doing the same, and I would get to spend lots of time with them in the process.
Seeing the reactions of the audience was my favourite part. We were a team.

That, along with all the other amazing people involved, makes the musical something I always look forward to. Well, for the most part, I love to act! This was only my second musical with RNS, and I had no idea what to expect. I absolutely love Broadway musicals, and performance has always been a passion of mine. So why not, right? It sounded like fun! In the end, it was just a big blur of singing and silly dancing and laughs and hairspray.
Thank you, crazy musical family! One of my dreams was to be a main character in a musical, the problem was that I had soccer practice, so I could only be secondary character I took the chance immediately. I love acting and singing … and sometimes even dancing sometimes. I think being involved in a musical is a really great team experience and I always enjoyed spending time with my fellow cast members, having fun and working on the production. I have always had a passion for musical theater so when I heard about the auditions I really wanted to try to get a lead role.
I was really happy and surprised to find out that I got a lead. I have always loved the musical, but at first I auditioned for a dancing role. For the first two months of rehearsals, I was only in two dancing scenes. However, a situation came up and Mrs. Ellis had to find a new lead. I was honoured because I was the first person she thought of and came to. I agreed to replace one of the leads and that was one of the best decisions I have made in my career at RNS and my best experience in this production would be my new found passion for dancing.

I worked as an operating room nurse, but the most rewarding and enduring experience was working with patients, and endeavouring to see situations from their perspective. I found it very important to be sensitive to their feelings and to be understanding. What impact did your years at Netherwood School for Girls have on your career?
I always wanted to be a nurse from an early age and that never changed as a career choice. I feel that my years at Netherwood, plus my parents, gave me an excellent preparation to go out in the world with a good code of ethics for my life. What are your favourite Netherwood memories? The friendships that were built with the other students. As day students when I attended Netherwood School we were not as involved with school activities as they are today.
Is there any one teacher at Netherwood School for Girls who helped to shape who you have become? Miss Stoddard, a very special teacher. She was a strict disciplinarian but extremely kind and encouraging when you had any difficulties. She taught us to respect others in life and also that you could always accomplish your goals and not fail if you wished to be successful.
In June, another group of RNS students will graduate. What advice can you give them? What is your mantra? Words to live by? Tell me about your profession? I hear applications for divorce and applications under our provincial Family Services Act. I deal with child protections matters, and I make decisions in private matters related to custody of and access to children, child support and spousal support, division of marital property and property acquired during common-law relationships. I also deal with applications to have individuals declared.
What do you love most about what you do? I love the challenge and the variety of work that I do. What are the greatest challenges of your job? The subject matter of divorce and separation. So are the applications brought by the Minister of Social Development to have children removed from the care of their parents. What are the highlights of your career to date? My appointment to the Bench in December , was a highlight. That too was a highlight. It was wonderful to see the model come to fruition and work well for families.
What impact did your years at RCS Netherwood have on your career? I was lucky enough to spend many years at the school. We lived on the Hill until I was seven, then moved back again when my father was Headmaster in the late s. I learned a lot about service to the school community and hard work. The small classes meant that we received a lot of individual attention.
My experience was very positive. What are your favourite RCS Netherwood memories? I have great memories of growing up on the Hill, and playing in the woods with Margaret, and lots of other children of staff members. I also have good memories of craziness on road trips for field hockey and softball. I especially treasure the memories of school traditions, like the Carol Service in the chapel at Christmas time. Is there any one teacher at RCS Netherwood who helped to shape who you have become?
My Grade 12 English teacher, Ed Dickens, really helped me learn how to think critically about literature. I ended up majoring in English at university, and that gave me a good basis for studying law. He built us these wooden box chairs, and we sat in a circle and discussed Shakespeare or whatever we were reading at the time. It seems to work.
Anything else you would like to tell me? RNS has gone through many incarnations. I think all of us who have been lucky enough to be part of the school are very thankful for that. Tell me how this came to be? Truthfully, my career is a combination of coincidence, good fortune, and timing. I became really involved in gaming in , and being a competitive person, I took winning and losing quite seriously. Fortunately with such a large population of people playing video games in the world, leagues were developing for those of us who wished to compete, and while my playing career was uneventful, it eventually lead to where I am now.
That event lead to me being asked to do a second event in Montreal in , and from there I was hired by one of the largest organizations in North America to provide commentary on all of their professional division matches. In , eSports reached a level where it was included in the Winter X-games in Aspen, CO, and I was the only North American to be included on the commentary and analytical team.

From there, my career exploded and I was contracted by Twitch. The travel has been amazing. Meeting new people and learning about cultures has been a great experience. Being included in some of the largest events worldwide, in sold-out arenas, really puts in perspective how massive the scale of eSports really is, and how involved and engaged the fans are. At a recent event in Minsk, Belarus, there were hundreds of fans waiting outside of both the hotel and the VIP entrance to the venue hoping to meet some of the players and personalities after the matches.
What impact have your years at Rothesay Netherwood School had on your career? The best lessons that RNS teaches, to me, are not the ones you learn in the classroom, but the ones you learn from being part of such an inclusive and close community. The cultures, ethnicities, diversity, and wide range of per-. The Anti-Defamation League labeled Beck's remarks "bigoted ignorance". On February 24, Beck apologized on air, agreeing that his comments were "ignorant". In , Beck, a friend of actor and director Mel Gibson claimed he and Gibson shared a conversation in which Gibson claimed "Jewish" people had stolen a copy of The Passion of the Christ before its official theatrical release, and that "Jewish people" were assaulting him in the streets.
Beck condemned the Norway attacks , [] but later received condemnation for his comparison of murdered and surviving members of the Norwegian Workers' Youth League to the Hitler Youth. He said, "There was a shooting at a political camp which sounds a little like, you know, the Hitler Youth or whatever, you know what I mean. Who does a camp for kids that's all about politics? While interviewing Brad Thor on his radio show, Beck opposed Donald Trump during his campaign for president , citing the demagoguery seen in the late s in Germany, peddled by Adolf Hitler , as Beck described it, "He was a kind of a funny kind of character that said the things people were thinking.
Where Donald Trump takes it, I have absolutely no idea. During an interview with author Brad Thor about a hypothetical situation where Trump was abusing his power as president and Congress was unable to stop him, Thor asked "what patriot will step up and do that if, if, he oversteps his mandate as president? On May 18, , Beck stated on his radio program that he intended to vote for Trump in the presidential election. He opposed negative media coverage of Trump and called Trump's record "pretty damn amazing". In March , Abdulrahman Alharbi filed suit for defamation in the U. Alharbi's defamation claim arose from Beck's repeated broadcasts "identifying Alharbi as an active participant" in the Boston Marathon bombing , even after federal authorities cleared Alharbi, who was injured in the attack, of any wrongdoing and confirmed that he was an innocent victim.

He signs autographs, poses for photos. He has perfected the Everyman shtick that presidential candidates spend years trying to master in places like Iowa. In Beck's hometown of Mt. Vernon, Washington , supporters and detractors hold handmade signs on the day Beck was honored by the mayor.
What's the difference between a communist or socialist and a progressive? One requires a gun and the other eats away slowly. The old American mind-set that Richard Hofstadter famously called the paranoid style —the sense that Masons or the railroads or the Pope or the guys in black helicopters are in league to destroy the country—is aflame again, fanned from both right and left No one has a better feeling for this mood, and no one exploits it as well, as Beck. He is the hottest thing in the political-rant racket, left or right.
To his admirers, Glenn Beck has been a voice crying in the wilderness, a prophet who warns us that we have been wandering in darkness too long. To detractors, he is a clown and a buffoon, at best, a dangerous demagogue, at worst.
