Geek of the Week

(An unconventionally sweet and awesome honor!)

Vernington Parish

Although a Jedi may possess the ability to wield the force, “many souls perish in its tumult” (Chopin 13). Previously, definitively overt in her erudite opinions, Vernington Parish is quickly assimilating the literary powers of analytical black, white, and the ever dangerous grey. “This may seem like a ponderous weight of wisdom to descend upon the soul of a young woman”, (Chopin 13) yet Vernington is cray-cray close to “becoming herself and casting aside that fictitious self which we assume like a garment with which to appear before the world” (Chopin 57). OOOOOOOOKKKKKKK, maybe a bit much (or a lot much), but this girl has learned to straight-up spit some mad diagnostic game. Congrats Vernington Parish...English Geek of the Week.
