Lorelei Bennett, Sports Editor
What’s up, chat! My name is Lorelei, and I am a returner to The Journal, making me a junior. This year, I will be your Sports Editor and will be taking on all the challenges that come with it. When I’m not working on Journal stuff, I am either doing one of three things: playing basketball, listening to music or watching movies. I love basketball. I am a nerd when it comes to the NBA, statistics and random facts. Along with that, I am the shooting guard for your Lady Cards and will (fingers-crossed) be team captain as well. Me gusta escuchar musica. I listen to literally all genres. At the moment, I’ve been on an underground R&B craze with artists like Avenior and Maz B, who basically no one knows who they are, but it’s okay. Other than them, I love Giveon, Shawn Mendes, Jon Pardi, Jazmine Sullivan and Tyler the Creator. Enough about music, I love to watch movies. When I am with my brother, Miller, we are the biggest Disney fans ever and have probably seen every movie on Disney+. But when I’m by myself, I love watching rom-coms and history movies. Some of my favorites are “Before Sunrise,” “West Side Story,” “Django Unchained” and “1917.” Um, but other than that, that’s all about me! Make sure you read all of my columns and all of my writers’ stories!

Lucy Len Dim, Editor-in-Chief
Well hello there! :) My name is Lucy Len Dim, and I feel beyond blessed to serve as this year’s Editor-in-Chief. Words cannot express my deepest gratitude for this opportunity, and most importantly, this publication. Over the course of these four years, I’ve grown in Room 400 as a student in Journalism, a Features Reporter and a Culture Editor. Despite the shifting landscape of each school year, The Journal remains my home away from home. Saying that I love this publication is simply an understatement. Outside of The Journal, I entertain through SHS’s Jazz Choir, handle the big bucks as the Myanmar Student Association’s (MSA) Treasurer and serve the community through National Honors Society. When my schedule gets the chance to breathe, I love snuggling up with a good old romance book/movie and spending time with my sweet family and friends. I’d also like to thank my Heavenly Father for His grace and kindness. Everything I am and have is because of Him. On that note, I hope we can share even the slightest fraction of joy and love to you through our work. We appreciate each and every one of you that take the time to read our work and those who give us the opportunity to tell your story. With love, Pathian ih zangfahnak le duhdawtnak cu nan parah tampi thleng hram seh <3 (May the Lord’s grace and love fall upon you abundantly.)
