In just two years here, John has made plenty of friends and nearly as many enemies. Part of that should be credited to his dynamic and strangely fascinating personality. From his ten-foot-tall poster of two-time World Series first basemen Albert Pujols (John’s childhood hero) to his very respectable collection of floral print button-up shirts, eccentricity has always been his style. That loud and braggadocios energy can even be found in the music that he listens to, telling me that his favorite album ever was the energetic and bombastic Her Loss by Drake and 21 Savage. Away from everybody else, though, John can be deeply introspective and private, spending his nights dreaming about the inner workings of life and our place in it.

About the Contributor
Deacon Lipsmeyer, Staff Reporter
Deacon is currently a senior at School of the Osage High School. Even though this is his first semester with the journalism team, Deacon has always been in love with writing. He remembers as a child that he used to design and write stories for comic books that he created. For the longest time, Deacon felt he wanted to be a journalist, and "after a few years of soul searching, [he] realized the dream was still alive and well" and joined the journalism team as a staff reporter and editor.
Deacon has been accepted into the journalism program at the University of Missouri-Columbia and cannot wait to continue delivering the best quality journalism as he develops his skills.
