Chock full of caffeine and creativity, Nora Landes is Le Sabre’s Editor-in-Chief. When she is not busy writing in-depth, analytical essays, staring at Mr. Linn’s shoes, or on the tennis court practicing with the girls’ tennis team, Nora can usually be found discussing the complexity of Patti Smith’s music, enjoying the afternoon at an art museum, or making eloquent, witty remarks. Nora believes her identity as an art nerd will not interfere with her ability to be a totally fab editor.

adviser — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 02:59:54 +0000

Josh Justin Gesite is a young looking individual who might be mistaken for a freshman. However, he is actually a Senior, and might even be considered artistic to some extent. While he has taken Calculus and a bunch of other highly sophisticated academic classes, many find him to still be “cool”. Born in the Philippines, and living in the U.S. since the Second Grade, he resides on Northridge, California, where he dreams to be anything he wants, especially with such great talent at anything and everything he does.

Megan Alimurung – Staff Writer

adviser — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 02:55:55 +0000

Megan Alimurung is a Senior at Cleveland High School with extremely bad eye sight. Alimurung often tells jokes incorrectly and can be identified as “the girl who wears flip flops everyday.” When she is not doing activities involved with writing or academics, she is either searching for interesting films and documentaries, teaching herself to play the acoustic guitar (she has made no progress yet), or watching videos of adorable hoglets. Aside from her flaws, she is a self-proclaimed, amateur metaphorical writer, poet, movie buff, and journalist. Alimurung found love in journalism after being a part of Le Sabre’s cub edition towards the end of the 2011 school year. With this new found interest in interviewing and writing, the Senior made the decision to become an official member of the Le Sabre writing staff for the 2011 to 2012 school year.

Gwendolyn Wu – Sports Editor

adviser — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 02:54:42 +0000

The occasionally sarcastic Gwendolyn Wu, also known as Gwen, happens to be a sophomore here at Cleveland, and the blushing sports editor of Le Sabre. In addition to making whiny comments about her not-so-heavy courseload in CORE 10, and procrastinating by playing League of Legends, she adores witty banter and joining conversations by being an awkward turtle. She’ll gladly pick up any book as long as it exceeds 100 pages, and add embellishments to concise sentences, as long as there’s some form of sugar on the side. Her vocabulary is supposedly too large and her immense love for looking up random figures in history on Wikipedia makes trying to finish math analysis homework too trying. Gwen’s best friend insists she’s short, although she stands at a whopping five foot four. When not trying to frantically finish homework or daydreaming (okay, or maybe during that), she can be found in lovers’ lane, or chilling with other sophomores by the mouth of D-Hall.

She has many goals in life, ranging from reading all the Jane Austen books to jumping off the world’s highest bridge in South Africa to publishing a New York Times Bestseller.
