You prepare yourself for a nice night out with the family. You wear your warmest clothes and bring your best camera. You’re going ice skating, one of the most awesome things to do during the Christmas season. So, of course tonight is going to be a great treat for you and your family.
But when you get to Union Square in San Francisco you can immediately tell that this was a bad idea.

Being a senior can be quite expensive. Between college applications, saving up for tuition, and new gas expenses (the downside to finally having a license), money is hard to find, especially in this economy. Because of this, many seniors have been forced to sit out on senior activities such as prom and the senior picnic. However, senior Paola Lizaola has created a simple solution to ensure that fewer students' senior years will be inhibited due to costs.

The James Logan Media Center is a place where students can go to have a good time or to study for a test. The place is brimming with good books, information, and students to hang out with and talk to. However, students these days seem to know little about the school's library, and much less about the librarian herself.
The director of the Media Center, Carla Colburn, has worked in James Logan for 23 years and has worked for six of those 23 as the Logan librarian. She wanted to convert the library into a place where it is fun to hang out, rather than just a place to do work and large amounts of studying.
