Tri-M Hosts 10th Annual Coffee House Event 2025
<p>Welcome back LBHS! Friday, January 10th was Long Beach High School’s annual Open Mic Night/Coffee House! The event was held in the commons by our very own Long Beach High School’s Music Honor Society (Tri-M)! This event has been a tradition held annually by Tri-M. It’s an event where you can showcase your musical talent, eat some good food, and an audience that’s cheering on the performers.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">I went and checked it out since I’m a Freshman, and didn’t know what it was all about. When I was there, I took pictures of the performances and I asked a couple of students why they liked coming to the Coffee House. Some responses I got were:</p> <p dir="ltr">“It’s a lot of fun and you get to see the talent that other students have.”</p> <p dir="ltr">“I’m here because I want to see the talent within Long Beach High School.”</p> <p dir="ltr">“The environment is fun.”</p> <p dir="ltr">I also asked Stephania Robinson, the Vice President of Community Service for Tri-M why Tri-M does Coffee House every year. She said, “A lot of the music students are able to share what they do in the ensembles, like the chorus and the band and orchestra. But Coffee House lets them shine in smaller groups with different genres.” I loved what she had to say; I thought it was an amazing thing to continue because shining a light on people who are less likely to put themselves in the spotlight is very important.</p> <p dir="ltr">When the performances started I, unfortunately, couldn’t get every single performance/performer written down. To kick off the Coffee House event, the first people up were Luke Morita, Ronan Morita, Aaron Turbek, and Daniel Brenner. They played a wonderful song called ‘March Blue Spring’ by Masafumi Suzuki on their instruments. </p> <p dir="ltr">A few more wonderful performances happened, but what really caught my attention was Mary Natindim singing ‘Hopelessly Devoted to You’ by Olivia Newton-John. Her voice was heavenly, I was in awe of her wonderful performance. Other notable performances were ‘If I Were a Boy’ by Beyoncé performed by Stephania Robinson and Kaitlyn Reyes. They both sounded amazing, Stephania sang the song very elegantly while Kaitlyn played the guitar skillfully. It was a very pleasant performance. Another notable performance was a Midwest Emo song performed by Sai Gomez (bass), Nanichi Arroyo Hill (guitar), Sean Kaprat (drums), and Gabby Stevenson (vocals). Nanichi and Sai were wonderful on their guitars; they were rocking the whole show. I was really enjoying it. And lastly ‘Creep’ by Radiohead was performed by Sai Gomez (bass), Eliot Biern (guitar), Nanichi Arroyo Hill (vocals), and Vincent Napolitano (drums). It was my number one performance. Nanichi’s vocals were amazing and the screams were fabulous. As I watched their awesome performance it felt as if I had escaped school. It felt like an actual concert. Sai and everyone else who played with him made me enjoy Coffee House even more. </p> <p dir="ltr">When the Coffee House performances ended, I reflected on the experience and the wonderful time I had. I felt it was a good ‘get-together’ to show off our school’s musical talent and to socialize with friends. As my high school career continues, I will definitely continue to come. It was incredible and I really encourage you to come to the next one!</p> <p> </p>
Anthony Cabasino: Legendary Interview with the Legendary Teacher!
<p dir="ltr">Many students have very important questions for their teachers, ranging from class related questions, to an incredibly deep argument about which revolution is better: French or Russian. In some cases, your teachers do not want to answer such interesting questions, but I was able to convince one of the most legendary teachers, Mr. Cabasino, to answer the most important questions, which had been wondered by the many generations of Long Beach High School students. We need answers!</p> <p dir="ltr">As a reminder, I had to be focused, because at that moment I had to do something that no one before me did. When I was in front of Mr.Cabasino, I realized that I had the power to stop the pain of many students in Long Beach High School who have so many questions for their teachers, so let it begin. I took a breath of air, and asked a first question:</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: Do you teach chemistry?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabasino</strong>: Emmn, no. But my brother does!</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: Which component of the computer would you like to be?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabsino</strong>: I would like to be a CPU. I love to be the brain of a system, do math, and control operations.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: How would you solve world hunger?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabasino</strong>: Yes, I am gonna say that I would give everyone a chromebook, so they can eat a CPU. That is the reason why people call them ‘chips’.</p> <p><strong><br><br></strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: Intel or AMD?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabasino</strong>: AMD. I hate that intel 13 and 14 series. They have an issue in the last series, which breaks the processor.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: What is your favorite food?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabasino</strong>: Hmmm. Give me a second. I need to think. It is a tough question. I would say ramen.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: If you were to be a binary number, would you be a 0 or a 1?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabasino</strong>: A 1 for sure.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: What is your favorite continent?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabasino</strong>: Antarctica, why? There are 138 volcanoes, and why not?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: How many liters of water can you drink in 1 hour? Maximum.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabasino</strong>: I feel comfortable saying 2. Or maybe 3. Or maybe 4. But I will say 2. If I will be really thirsty then 3. Final answer - 3.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: Are you a science or a math teacher?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabasino</strong>: Why can’t I be both, I am an equal, but more mathy person. But I like to read a lot about technology, but I am still great at math.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: What is the best classroom, like an actual room in school?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabasino</strong>: The one facing the water, certainly. Room 346, smartboard, ocean, great window, love it.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: Would you rather eat a CPU Intel core i9-10900K or 1 stick of 16gb RAM?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabasino</strong>: Intel chip, because I think it is smaller, so I can eat it easier. I think it would taste bad, which is the reason why I did not call any PC part my favorite food. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: What was the best bathroom pass that a student used to go to the bathroom?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabasino</strong>: Between the full desk and the stool.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: What is your favorite Computer Science joke?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabasino</strong>: How do robots eat pizza? By 1 byte at a time.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: What is your bench press, maximum?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabasino</strong>: 643.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: Kilograms or pounds?</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Cabasino</strong>: Write whatever.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: Okay.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Hrabko</strong>: Would you prefer to be chill or give extra credit for your computer science classes?</p> <p><strong id="docs-internal-guid-f95e8277-7fff-5e9c-685b-7fdfea02bb30"><br>Cabasino: </strong>Wait, but I am giving extra credit. So I am chill, yes? I am chill because I give extra credit. Yep, I chose to be chill.</p>

Please be sure to have your parent or guardian sign the application.</p> <p><em>Q: I have been struggling with balancing college applications, clubs, and work.

Fortunately, this feeling will pass, and in the meantime there are a few ways in which you can stay organized and relaxed during this time.
