SENIOR SPOTLIGHT:
Samuel James Radermacher

A Senior Spotlight
“Rad Sam,” “Sam Rad,” “Samburguesa,” “Mondo,” “The Samwich,” “Sambo,” “Samboni,” “Wag Too,” “Milksnake,” “Zeke,” “Ser Samwell of Radermark,” and his personal favorite, “Big Big Chair”; I have known Samuel James Radermacher for less than a year now, but it didn’t take long for him to become one of my best friends. Sam is always smiling, laughing, and bursting with energy. Sam is constantly looking at the world through bright, creative eyes, contemplating the tiniest details of each thing and imagining the best of them together. That's the thing about Sam--he always has a new idea. From the “how come's” to the “what if's” to the “why not’s,” Samuel uses them all to create worlds in his brain in which the things that do not work in this life are necessary for structure. This aids in the thing that most people know him for--his amazing talent for filmmaking. He serves as his own screenwriter, director, camera man, and editor. He spends hours fine tuning every detail of his videos. Among these videos are “The Organist,” “How to Become a Knight,” ‘Mason Corn,” and the upcoming “Adventures of Mike the Mine Sweeper.”

Courtney Jane Behlmer: writer extraordinaire, best friend of all, and that one person that’s always cold. She’s a beam of sunlight in the cold of winter and one of my best friends. You might know her as the leader of Friday Night Writes and an editor of Crossroads. She’s a creative genius with a big heart, always ready to listen to whatever’s on your mind. She’s always reading or writing one story or another and she always has open arms and a warm hug for anyone. When I did this interview, I didn’t know what I was doing, so I started with the basics and then looked up “fun interview questions” in the hope of giving a little life and randomness to this spotlight, a perfect representation of this lovely lady.
S: When and where?
C: When and where what?
S: Were you born?
C: At approximately 2:02 in the morning, in the year 2002 on the 5th day of the 5th month, in Eau Claire, Wisconsin.
S: Favorite freshman year class?
C: At that point, I probably enjoyed English the most.
S: If you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be and why?
C: I would be a weeping willow because they are short, long-limbed, and pretty--and sad, they're also sad.
S: What would you do with 10 million dollars?
C: Well, the church obviously would be getting 10%, and I think that's like $10,000? And then I would buy out a bunch of book companies, and probably a mansion in Charleston if I could, except those things are like a hundred million dollars, so maybe I just put a down payment on one of them. *Laughs* That's about it.
S: If you could choose one superpower, what would it be?
C: Probably invisibility, because then I could just disappear and run away from all of my problems, or I could sneak up on my friends and scare them for a change, or I could fall asleep during class, and you wouldn't know if I was paying attention or asleep, because I’d be invisible.
S: You can compare yourself with any animal. What is it and why?
C: I am a cat on all levels except for physical, meow, because I am empathetic. I am cute, soft, and bipolar, sometimes, and I love curling up in ridiculous positions when I sleep.
S: What do you think about when you're alone in your car, or in your room, as the case may be?
C: Literally everything. That's it. That's all I got.
S: Any advice for the freshman?
C: Number one--love your teachers because they have to put up with you, your classmates, your older siblings, and your younger siblings, year after year, and they still smile and make jokes and want to be there to teach you. Number two--love your classmates and get to know them right away, even if some of them are not people you can get along with. Get to know them first before just dismissing them. You never know whom you might meet or what kinds of best friends you might make. Number three--don't wear sweatpants to school. Number four--if you have a Prof. Sullivan class, listen to it . . . although he's gone now. Number five--always bring chapel snacks. Number six--give people hugs. Number seven--go to Prof. Rodebaugh's office for advice. Number eight--have fun. Number nine--not illegal fun. Number ten--take lots of pictures. Number eleven--hang the pictures everywhere and put them in every available space. Number . . . what are we on now? At thirteen? Twelve? Number twelve (‘cause I like that number)--read more books. They don't have to be textbooks. Number thirteen--buy books. Number fourteen--you're prettier than you think you are.
S: What's your funniest high school memory?
C: Bryce Sandvig. There is one time in algebra one with Mrs. J, when in the middle of class he threw his hat into the middle of the floor. He was sitting in the front row, so the hat landed in front of Mrs. J., and he rocked backward and forward in his desk until he landed it [his desk] on the floor. He scuttled up on his desk with it tipped over and him still inside it, grabbed his hat and kicked himself back up. Nobody said anything. Nobody really laughed or made any acknowledgement because Mrs. J. just kept on teaching, even though he'd done this right in front of her. It was one of the funniest things I've seen in my life. Also, one time he took his Religion binder and, in the winter, he sledded on it down to chapel. Bryce Sandvig was probably the funniest memory of high school in freshman year. It was a good time.
S: What do you want to be when you grow up?
C: I want to be a mom, a writer, a friend, a sister, a daughter, and an all-around amiable person to be around.
S: What are you known for?
C: I don't know what I'm known for. I hope I'm known for hugs, good advice and, I don't know, food, but I don't know.
S: Writing and poetry, perhaps?
C: It makes me feel really good to know that some people think of me as a writer, but I would prefer to be known as a better friend than as a far away wordsmith.

In the modern age, the Information Age, communication has become so effortless that, at times, it may be easier to communicate than it is not to communicate. For example, take photo sharing--it is no hard task to find an example of someone posting a picture publicly with the intent of having only a select few see it. However, to general surprise in the scientific community, it was recently discovered that this practice far outdates the advent of the internet, as these never-before-seen 16th century letters between the Duke of Marlboro and his good friend, Barack Obama, evidence:
The Duke of Marlboro, esq.,
To his nobility, Barack Obama;
Moste esteemed friends, please find enclosed a self-portrait from my boar hunt last weekend, along with several sketches of my breakfast and a drawing I accidentally made of my foot.

By Aric Reim
We've all said some pretty weird things before. Taken out of context, we get some interesting sayings. I've taken the liberty of writing down some of what I've heard for you guys to laugh at. Enjoy!
“There’s a quiz today? . . That pretty much sums up my sophomore year.”
“The only thing he said to me today is, ‘I wanted to be a rainbow.’”
“Bibloo knew - wait, why did I say Bilboo? Bilbo knew . . .”
"Peanut butter is a condiment.”
"I am a spicy boy."
"Anime or Alabama? What's the difference?"
"I sound like a potato box. Ow! There's tape on the arm hair!"
What If . . .
. . . you could wake up every morning to the smell of bacon! It would be a dream come true! Can’t you just smell that mouth-watering, crispy, sizzly aroma of freshly cooked strips of meat? It’s wonderful, isn’t it? Now imagine that scent following you wherever you go, or at least whenever you exert a certain level of energy.
At this point, you can probably guess the identity of this ingenious physical characteristic that I have so spontaneously conjured up in my brain: bacon sweat! Picture yourself on a pleasant jog, possibly through a beautiful forest filled with sunshine and singing birds, when you suddenly begin to tire. A bead of sweat drips down your forehead, and as you wipe the fluid from your face, you catch a hint of that glorious aura. Before you know it, deodorant has become a thing of the past, and all you can smell is the dizzyingly delicious aroma seeping from the millions of pores in your skin. A deer pokes his head out of a bush in wonder, the birds flutter around to escort you through the trails, a badger crawls out of his den and begins clearing all the sticks on the path in front of you.
Bacon sweat is beneficial in countless ways. If you are known to sweat in your sleep, you will never again want to wash your sheets in the morning. If you get nervous and sweat before a public presentation, now your peers will be begging to see you on stage, just to get a whiff of that crispy goodness. If you can’t finish a meal because you’re too full, just jog around the house for a minute and the smell of your sweat will have your mouth watering for more.
Bacon sweat, everyone’s dream.

Weird Things Heard around Campus
By Lydia Kettner
By Suraya Williams
Water Fountain survey
The minds of Immanuel students are full of intriguing and exciting things. In this column, we’ll probe the collective mind of the campus to learn more about things we’ve never thought about before. We might also be enlightened by a faculty member once in a while.
The first survey taken this year was, “What side is the faucet on a water fountain?”
Out of 50 people, 40 said that the faucet is on the right, and 10 declared that it is on the left. That means that 80% believe the faucet is on the right side. Thank you for making my math so easy, I was not expecting this number to be even. Also, I had two young gentlemen tell me that it was on the bottom and shot water up.
I was interested to see if there was a specific side the faucet is usually on. Searching the internet, I found that most are placed on the right side. This is because 70-90% of humans are right-handed. Interestingly, quite a few of the girls who live in the dorm thought it was on the left. I believe that this is because, for some reason, the water fountains in South Hall have the faucets on the left.
To conclude, however, I’ll offer one point in the left-hand voters’ favor. Prof. Gullerud told me that he thought the faucet is on the left. So the few of you who voted for the left side do have Prof. Gullerud backing you up.
Dungeons and Dragons
Even if you don’t play D&D, you may know that there are several things that you need to play: character sheets, at least one set of dice, and at least one book that contains the information for the different races and classes. However, although they are not necessary, I have found that having a minifigure to put on a map makes the game far more enjoyable.
Minifigures are popular in campaigns, both for Dungeon Masters and for players. If they are used with maps, they can help determine where your character is or where a monster may be. While you can purchase pre-painted figures to play with, there are a number of people who buy and paint their own, giving themselves more control of how they want their characters to look. You can get things from simple zombies and wolves to detailed dragonborn and vampires; there are also a wide variety of larger figures like treants, dragons, beholders, and even krakens. Players who are very specific as to what their characters look like might even go to online sites that allow them to make their own custom minifigures.
Even though they are not necessary to the game, minifigures are a fun addition to playing, and they are a very good art project even if you don’t play D&D.

Children can be challenging. This was the main thought running through my mind as I boarded an airplane, set to deliver me over a thousand miles away from the comforts of home and the people I knew and loved. I was on my way to teach Vacation Bible School in Lynnwood, Washington, though I felt utterly unprepared. I had gone over the lessons and taken notes, but I still had a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach. “I don’t know these kids. What if they don’t listen to me?” The thought continued to haunt my brain as I found my seat toward the back of the plane.
I was still having doubts all throughout takeoff, but the pressure began to ease as I conversed with my partner, Zack Sippert, who was accompanying me on this trip. Once we landed, we were picked up by Pastor Mark Tiefel, whom we were going to be spending the week with. I didn’t begin to mentally relax until we started talking to Pastor Tiefel. As we drove around downtown Seattle to Lynnwood (the church is technically located in a small suburb called Alderwood Manor, but the mailing address reads Lynnwood), he informed us on his experience in the public ministry. I suddenly began to realize that God had delivered Zack and I safely here to preach His name to His children, just as Pastor Tiefel had been called by God to be a leader of His people and guide the members of his congregation.
Late that night after everyone had gone to bed, I cracked open my Bible and began reading Isaiah 41. I was reminded of how God has called each of us believers into His service to preach the Gospel, the good news of our salvation, to all the people of the earth, with the Holy Spirit working faith in them. Verses 9 and 10, “I took you from the ends of the earth, from its farthest corners I called you. I said, ‘You are my servant’; I have chosen you and have not rejected you. So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." God promises to strengthen, encourage, and help us overcome all the obstacles the devil may try to put in our path. With my mind at spiritual peace, knowing God would help me to teach the right words and shepherd His children, I said my prayer and drifted off, sleeping better than I had in a long time.
The rest of the week turned out to be one of the most amazing experiences I had ever been blessed to take part in. I formed strong Christian relationships with many of the children and my fellow teachers. I particularly enjoyed spending quality time with many of the kids individually, getting to know them personally and instructing them spiritually; but the best part was getting the opportunity to lead their Bible lesson. God granted me the knowledge to know exactly what to do and the main message that was meant to be taught: that Jesus died on the cross, bearing the punishment that we were meant to bear, so that all of our sins have been forgiven. In this I have confidence that God will deliver me through all my earthly endeavors, and continue to give me more opportunities to deliver His Word.

Fresh Polls
By Kitara Mielke and Courtney Behlmer
Every new year brings new students, mostly freshmen, and the need to get to know them. I’ve already had the privilege of meeting a few of them and learning a little about them.
One common question for freshmen is who their favorite professor is. 71% of those polled said that Prof. Rodebaugh is their favorite, which is a common theme in all of the freshman classes, as far as I’m aware (it was for us). There were a variety of favorite classes, including Spanish, Health, and Choir.
There are a lot of student activities here at Immanuel in which the freshmen are getting involved. Most are playing various sports or getting involved in other activities, such as Robotics.
Thankfully, most freshmen answered that Immanuel has been better than they thought it would be. Some of the things they are most excited to experience are Formal, sports, and meeting all the new people. The predictions for the year all seemed to be based around the year having its ups and downs, but all in all having a good year. They even all had good things to say about the seniors, except for one (“It is annoying to have to look up to them” was what he told me--I’ll just say, that’s one I haven’t heard before.)
So if you get a chance, introduce yourself to the freshmen. It can be kind of weird coming to a new boarding school where you might not know anyone, but they are some of the easiest and most fun people to have a conversation with that I’ve talked to in a while. Personally, I’m excited to get to know them as the year goes on. Hopefully, they enjoy their time here and appreciate Immanuel for what it offers--Christian education and a family-like environment, which is one of the biggest blessings I can imagine.
Okay guys, fall has officially begun. Yay!That means sweater weather, rain, colorful leaves, and . . . tea. I understand that tea is not the only hot drink to go for when the weather turns brisk, but it is my favorite. I believe that there is a tea for everyone, but even if some of you aren’t huge fans of tea, I hope you still find some entertainment from these crazy facts.
I don’t know about you, but when I hear tea, I most often think, “England.” But there are so, so many different kinds of tea from all over the world. There are over 3,000 kinds of tea, most of which are altered extensively depending on the region the tea is made in. We can’t cover them all, but we can cover some, so let’s get this par-tea started, and into these tea-riffic facts from all around the world.
Chai--It’s my favorite! True, there’s more to it than that, but really, if you haven’t tried it before, my love of it should be enough to do so. No? Well . . . fine. I’ll give you more reasons to love it.
“Chai,” the Hindu word for “tea,” is a milk and tea drink that originated on the Indian subcontinent. Though the recipe is not really fixed and changes a lot village to village and family to family, the general ingredients are milk, sugar, cardamom, and ginger. However, the western adaptation of chai, or chai latte, has a lighter and sweeter taste than the Indian version of a more herbal and spicier milk beverage.
If that isn’t enough to make you want to try it, then, well, you’re a lost cause. I’m sorry.
Po Cha--Forget the “milk or lemon” debate. How about adding some salty butter to your tea? Po cha, the traditional tea of Tibet, is made by boiling a brick of Pemagul black tea for hours. From there, milk, salt, and yak butter, yes, you read that correctly, yak butter, are added, and the mixture is churned together. It's said this blend with a soup-like consistency is uniquely comforting and fortifying in the high-altitude and cold climates. I guess there’s no need for the alpaca ponchos with this stuff . . .
Touareg Tea--A mix of mint, green tea leaves, and a generous serving of sugar, Touareg tea (also known as Maghrebi mint tea) is the customary blend in the North African country of Morocco.
You know how many of us just naturally say, “No, no, I’m all right. Thank you though,” when asked if we need anything at someone’s house? Well, that principle does NOT work when served this tea. Poured from up high into slim, delicate glasses, it's served three times to guests. Each time the flavor varies slightly, per the proverb, "The first glass is as gentle as life, the second is as strong as love, the third is as bitter as death." Refusing any one of these servings is considered the height of rudeness. So just smile and sip, people. Smile and sip.
Matcha--My eye seriously starts twitching when I hear this word. The trends. So many trends. Matcha frappuccinos. Matcha pancakes. Matcha cookies. Matcha facemasks. MATCHA. But, it’s true, matcha is pretty incredible. A finely processed, double harvested, and purely ground form of green tea, Matcha (or macha), even more so than other teas, is full to the brim of antioxidants. It’s 137 times more full, in fact.
My two cents, hot matcha tea seriously tastes like how pond algae smells, but cold, it isn’t so bad. So yeah, trend away.
Bubble Tea--A modern innovation on Chinese tradition is Taiwanese bubble tea. A high calorie treat, its base is an iced tea (black, green, jasmine or oolong typically) with powdered milk and sugary syrup. But the bubbles to which it owes its name are small balls of tapioca, a starchy white grain. #yum.
The origin of bubble tea only dates back as far as 1988, when Lin Hsiu Hui, a product development manager at the Chun Shui Tang teahouse, dropped some tapioca balls from her fen yuan dessert into her tea during a staff meeting, a fortuitous place to experiment. Soon, the teahouse was selling her quirky creation, and in the decades since it's become an international phenomenon with bubble tea shops popping up across Asia, Europe, and the United States.
The Bubble Tea has a spicier, Thai cousin, Cha Yen, an amber-colored Thai iced tea, which is a blend of Ceylon or Assam tea with sugar, condensed milk, and spices like star anise, tamarind, and orange blossom, served over ice in a tall glass. #doubleyum #amitheonlyonegettingexcitedaboutthisstuff #ihopenot #butithinkso
Earl Grey and Black Tea--Remember when I said I think of England when I think of tea? Well, there’s a reason for that. Earl Grey was named after a British dude. Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey, born in 1764, was Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from November 1830 to July 1834, a member of the Whig Party, and a long-time leader of multiple reform movements, most famously the Reform Act 1832, to be exact. According to his government biography, "he reputedly received a gift, probably a diplomatic present, of tea that was flavoured with bergamot oil. It became so popular that he asked British tea merchants to recreate it." Thus Earl Grey was born.
Tea was introduced to England in the 17th century, but the iconic British tradition of afternoon tea took nearly another 200 years to catch on. In 1840, standard meal times placed lunch at midday and dinner late, around 8 p.m. or so, and tea was by then a must have with all of them.
There is even a British standard for the perfect cup of tea. You need a pot made of porcelain, and there must be at least two grams of tea to every 100ml of water. The temperature can’t go beyond 85 degrees when served but should be above 60 degrees for "optimum flavour and sensation.”
Oh, and you know the whole “putting milk in tea” thing? Yeah, apparently that had a more political origin than culinary or tea connoisseur preference. According to one source, the practice of putting milk in first has to do with social class, not taste. So, the next time y’all hop across the pond, be sure to pack your porcelain pot and put the milk in first!
Oh my, there are so many more teas I could write about, but I think this is a good “Beginner’s Guide to Tea Addiction,” so I’m afraid I’ll have to stop there. Enjoy the rainy fall weather, and really any season for that matter, with a lovely cup of tea. And remember, when in doubt, pinky out!
To Tea or Not to Tea
How do you know when you’re ready?
When you’re ready, you’ll know.
How do I convince my parents to let me get a pet snake?
If you want a pet snake and want your parents to allow it, you’re going to need to employ your most persuasive skills.
First, do a bunch of research. Which species do you want? What will that cost? What are the needs you must care for? Can you meet them? Do you want a boy or girl snake? What are the pros and cons of both genders? What will you name your snake?
Put all of your research together, write it down, make a powerpoint, start drafting an essay, whatever you prefer. You are going to present this research and information to your parents along with your request for your new pet. Be prepared to answer any questions your parents will have.
Where will you keep him/her? Who cleans the habitat? Who pays for food?
Also be saving your money. Keeping any pet has some kind of expense and you’ll want to be prepared and look prepared in the eyes of your parents. If they know that this is something you want, something you’ve prepared for, and something you know all about, they’re more likely to let you get a cute little snek.
Bring your presentation to your parents. Show them that you know what you want to get into and are fully ready to do so. If you don’t have enough money, ask to do chores around the house to get a little allowance while also performing tasks that underline the glory of your responsibility.
And then just get ready to bring home your new friend!
Whom do you think I should ask to formal?
This kind of question is pretty hard to answer when the questions are submitted anonymously. The general advice is to ask someone that you would be comfortable going with, or would like to meet. However, if you just want to go with a friend, that’s a great option too.
What is at the end of the rainbow?
If you want to keep your childhood, then only read the next few words--pot of gold.
However, a rainbow is caused by light being changed by water droplets. So, since you asked, there is nothing, as it is an optical effect.
Does the word cannibalism only apply to humans eating other humans or to animals eating their own kind as well?
A quick internet search leaves me thinking that it applies to animals too, but is not seen as disgusting and against the law, as it is with humans (well, I hope).
How do you win at foosball?
The ancient and most noble game of foosball was patented way back in 1921 by a man named Harold Searles Thorton across the pond, in the UK. According to the legend of this masterful art, however, humans have been competing in this sport as far back as the 1880’s.
That has no bearing on winning, however.
To win any sport as demanding and deft as foosball, one must practice, exercise, and play.
Warm up your wrists and stretch them every day. Do some finger exercises. Do a couple of somersaults to become one with the ball, and kick things at regular intervals to understand the capabilities of the tiny soccer-men-on-sticks. Work on your concentration by watching paint dry, paying attention in class, and following the trajectory of small objects like gnats and flies and the occasional dry erase marker.
Training in hand, you must practice your craft. Get a personalized coach to cheer you on and play against you and support your endeavor to become the Ultimate Foosball Champion.
