First Annual Summer Reading Book Fair

By Jade Perry

On Wednesday, June 8 and Thurday June 9,, all students 5-11 grades of Morrisville were given the opportunity to select their own book for this year’s summer reading assignment.

A book fair was set up in the media center with various donated books for the students to pick from. While students are permitted to keep their book permanently, returning their summer reading book for future students will get them extra credit on the summer reading assignment next year, making a great way to start off the year with a head start!

Many students had positive things to say about the book fair.

Haris Qazi said “The book fair is a very inspiring place.”.

“I think the book fair is very helpful because we get to pick what we read.” Casandra Ulysse said when asked her opinion on the book fair.

While the book fair idea was generally well received by students, it was not without its critics. According to Amya Pathirana, “[The book fair] is the most ridiculous thing ever, we are too old for this.”

Eric Sewell also had more to add, “The book fair was like rain: once you go in it doesn’t get better.”

"It is a nice thing to do," said Kaylee Searle

Jon Gilkeson added that the book fair was very delicious.

The book fair offered students with a lot of freedom of choice over what they read for the summer, and the book fair assignment itself is even more open, giving the students several options as to what assignment they can complete about their chosen book.

From writing a rap about their book, to illustrating a comic of key scenes, the students of Morrisville Middle/Senior High School are given the choice to select the assignment that works best for them. Many students are sure to enjoy their newfound freedom of choice in this year’s summer reading project

My Nikon FM2 Mod

Fixing the film advance lever

My Nikon FM2n is the nicest, yet most simple film camera I’ve owned. It's "teached" me more about photography in a couple months than anything I've ever used. It's all manual! This simplicity forced me to focus and learn what it is I’m doing. It has a light meter but it's super simple.

About 1/2 Inch

I love this camera but it has one major problem I had to fix… To shoot a photo the film advance lever needs to be in the open position. I use my left eye for the viewfinder so the film advance lever pokes straight into my face, making the camera hard to use.

I ordered a spare film advance lever. Grinned about 1/2 of an inch off. Glued on the plastic cover. Then watched Youtube teardown videos to see how to replace the film lever. A few very nervous steps later and voila, my film advance lever is replaced. It's now shorter and doesn’t poke my very handsome face.

The original longer lever had more leverage so it did feel shorter. I don’t notice the difference any longer thou. The pushing of the lever works flawless. I'm glad I did it and I love shooting with this camera even more. I made this fantastic camera even better!

My solution

Much shorter

Note: I could have made this mod on the original lever. I would have saved myself the spare lever cost of $7 and the hassle of swapping it out. But, I wanted a way to revert back to stock just in case things went wrong.

I went to see the new Top Gun movie at the real IMAX in Ft Lauderdale. I brought my film camera to photograph the neon there. As you wait in line, above you is the coolest retro 90’s neon display.

Kodak Ektar 100 looks like slide film

Kodak Ektar 100 is a fantastic film stock. It's really makes color pop! I love this film! Also I noticed some say it doesn't work well for portraits but I've had huge luck with it. It's a go for almost any situation. I really wish Kodak had a 400 speed version.
