1. Jayhwan
Lee, Andy Lee,
and Paul Lee celebrate
together after the Dragon
Tail game. Andy, the tail, pulled
the tail off from David Kim’s team to
win points for Ms. Lyons and Mrs. Yan’s
homeroom. 2. Emily Lee grabs a gummy
bear out of the plastic bag full of ice. In this
activity, there were different missions that they had
to accomplish in one-minute to earn points. 3. Deborah
Buesing, Andrew Keller and Brian Choi strike a pose for the audience as they act out their fashion theme of ‘Celebrity’. The fashion
show took place on the second day of SEW. Each team practiced in their
homeroom to fill two-minutes of performance time. In the actual performance, some students wore fancy wigs and costumes to enhance their show.
4. Louie Chung chases his opponent Zachariah Ward during the game “Capture the
Flag.” In order to win the game, the offense player from each team had to steal the ball
from the opponent’s area without getting their flags caught. Students who got their flags
taken were sent to jail, where they were told to do push ups in the mini pool.
5. Julia Lee and Elissa Lee eat chicken that was provided especially for Spiritual
Emphasis Week. For three days, students were asked to take a step away
from academics and spiritually align themselves so that they could have
the opportunity to get closer to God. 6. Teddy Kwon and Chang
Hee Han dressed up as a couple to perform their theme “First
Date” in the fashion show during SEW. Each homeroom
had different themes and they were scored on student involvement, teacher involvement, fashion,
and performance.

“My best
memory in SEW
was when I had to
cut off a chunk of Ms.
Forbes’ hair with school
scissors.”
- Ziho Hwang, c/0 ‘16
“My favorite SEW shirt
was made by Eunji
Oh (c/o ‘11) for the
2009 SEW. I remember
cutting off the neck
of the shirt and the
Principal, R od Wallace
joked that everyone
else was going to start
doing the same thing.
I still own this shirt
and wear it.”
- Mrs. Lozano

Rachel Yeo (c/o
‘13) hugs Mrs. Kim after
she was ambushed by c/o ‘12
students Steven Whang, Yeundo
Sang, and Da Yeon Lee. Mrs. Kim
said, “These boys approached
slowly with a kimchi basin filled
with water. I anticipated that I
couldn’t avoid them and just
surrendered.”

2011

“The water fight
was always a special
time for me because it was a
great time to finally have some
payback on all of the students!
Kay (c/o ‘12) was one of my art
students and soccer players
and an amazing girl, so
you can imagine all the
stress you caused me!
I think if you knew her
you would understand
what I'm talking about!”
- Mr. Walasek

“ My favorite SEW memory is performing ‘Out of
the Ashes’ for the 2011
SEW. It was a last minute
call, but it turned out to
be a successful skit. Probably the corniest ending
I have ever acted during
my time at GSIS.”
- Monica Cho, C/0 ‘ 13
