On Saturday, January 30th,  The Venetia Fair’s headlining tour made its second stop at Rocko’s in Manchester, New Hampshire. Rocko’s happened to be the second of the two stops for the tour’s kickoff events. Before coming to a close, the tour is scheduled to make its way from New Hampshire, down the eastern seaboard and into the midwestern states.  Accompanying The Venetia Fair were fellow tour members Kiss Kiss, along with limited tour members, Trophy Scars. In addition, The Beauty In Isolation landed a set for the show at Rocko’s. With a variety of styles, the show was set to be appealing to many. (more)

Ask Amy- How to build relationships

Tuesday, March 9, 2010

Hey, I’m Amy.

I’m a student, new on the Ghostwriting staff, that you can write an anonymous letter to if you have any… how do I word this? Personal issues or problems at home, with relationships, with school, stuff like that, send it in. Don’t worry; I am a student, because I know that you think your teachers lived amongst the dinosaurs and have no idea what we’re going through. I promise that e-mails and names will be confidential if you want to send anything in. Just sign it with a creative name, I’m sure that you’ve read similar articles. Desperate to Be Seen, Stressed About School, Heartbroken… and the like. I’ll try to keep a theme for each post. I will try my best to respond to every post, but I may not be able to publish every one on The Ghostwriter. My advice will be unbiased, although maybe a little judgmental. But that’s what we need sometimes: for a person to tell us the honest truth. Even if it hurts. (more)

March: things to look for

March is upon on us! Not quite Winter and not quite Spring, this month often ends up being remembered for mud and it’s lack of days off from school.

So to liven things up a bit this month, here are a few pieces of entertainment to look for:

1: Album: One Life Stand, by artist Hot Chip. The latest album released by the electronic/pop group, One Life Stand has an overall softer sound to it that Hot Chip’s previous albums, noticable in the singer’s voice, but maintains all the synthsized keyboarding and guitar solos that make the band stand out. The songs are fairly consistent, and are all good listens. The album does, however, lack a major stand-out single like Ready For the Floor from their previous album. (more)

A sweet exchange from Bavaria

Tuesday, March 2, 2010

By Nicole Larsen
Staff Writer

When someone says Bavaria, Germany, what comes to mind? Chocolate, lederhosen, maybe yodeling.

Actually, Bavaria, or Bayern in German, has more to offer than these timeless associations.

Even in this modern generation, stereotypes about people from other countries are still relevant. And although technology offers opportunities for global communication, some people have yet to take advantage of this.

Westford Academy, true to our mission statement, is trying to bridge international gaps-starting with the German exchange. This program, headed by German teacher Michael Joyce, celebrated its twenty-ninth anniversary and is more influential than ever because of the websites and connections available for today’s students.
