Hey hey it’s me Zyhir, your new editor-in-chief for the Lion Ledger. I haven’t been talking in a while, because things at our main office have been moving kinda slow but we are trying our best to get things back in gear. Aside from that, let us talk about what’s going on this time of year.

The holidays are coming up, and there are lots of things going on this time of year here at St. Leo the Great. Not only did we have our Breakfast with Santa on Sunday, but we had the Christmas concert last night (which was amazing by the way) and also the Holiday Dance! I’m really excited for it.

By the way, for those of you who are in 6th, 7th, and 8th who didn’t know, it is going to be on Friday, December 18th from 7:00p to 10:00p.

What else? Oh yeah, do you know about Emely? She is the new managing editor for the Lion Ledger. She is a really good editor and always gets her work done. We didn’t have anyone from 8th grade class on the editorial staff, but now we do, so that’s good. (Even yearbook got one too). Emely has two stories on the front page so if you have not seen it yet, you should hit it up.

A couple of real news before I go. I am sure you all heard about President Obama getting the Nobel Peace Prize, and if you have not, then listen up. Mr. President himself got this very inspirational prize today. I am really proud for him and hope he stays modest about it.

And this just in. You probably know about Tiger Woods since he’s one of the most well-known golfers ever, like up there with people like Arnold Palmer. While I was writing this, we found out he is going to be taking a break from golf. Hope he turns it around since he’s a big figure and some kids looked up to him.

Well, Season’s Greetings and have a Happy New Year. Goodbye for now.
