The CalSO Song
by Misha and Zack

M:Once upon a time in a land far away
In the town of Berkeley, CA

Z:A group of people decided
to orient the best
students in the nation

B:CAL Student Orientation

M:It all started in October 2001
We saw flyers saying CalSO will be fun

Z:So we all applied and had lots of interviews
And they picked the very best

B: Us and all of you

We got to know each other well in ED 97 CalSO class
It was lots of fun and it kicked a lot of a—
We passed a lot of g—
We smoked a lot of gr—
(call Zack over)
Was difficult to pass
So listen up dear audience
these are all the best
Counselors and coords. And prostaff and all the rest…

Alejandro is a shining star
We almost lost him to a parked car
Anita “outta control” mesquita
Has a positive attitude is never rude
Aqueila Lewis likes to take the stage
A damn don’t she look good for her age
Audrey’s so fun she like to laugh and play
That cute little (zack giggle) giggle brightens everyone’s day
Chris P has a lot of spirit to give
I’m glad he finally found a place to live
Chris Wold is upright I don’t think he’s every lied
Except for when he’s being a tour guide
Connor’s a returner and he’s helped us get far
And he’s damn good with his guitar
David’s graduated and to Michigan he’ll go
And he does the Wagner wiggle like a pro
Derek Ang is nobody’s fool
He’s and engineer and he’s so Dang cool
We all love Destry Saul
His red hair’s hangin’ on Chia Frat’s wall
You can’t be nicer than Diana Hsu
Without he on staff I don’t know what we’d do
This next person is cool and strong
She’s so tight she has her own song
(Oh Donna)
What do you call it when Elva gives a tour?

---An ELAV-TOUR…

We could talk about Garett ‘cause he’s the bomb
But you can look up his info on Garettng.com
Heather Suminski sweet like sugar and spice
I’m glad I got to cofac with her twice

RAP

Z:Irene Cadiz
Can you help me please
She knows how to handle all the tough counselees
Jacquelynn is another that make rough times fun
Its hard to be as articulate as Ms. Robinson
We have to keep goin’ in the sun and the rain
Its hard to be as cheerful as Jennifer Tseng
Mr. Porter is assertive and he’ll take a stance
He’s the man, everybody loves the Jesse dance
Jesse is the smoothest cat under the sun
The SAT girls say he’s lots of fun
But back to the program when its hard what should we do?
Stay cool, calm and collected
Like Jinsue
Speaking of cool and romantic—wow
Can we all take a lesson from Jonathon Lau
We all should be nice and Kim Hope is sweet
But sometimes she has to punch people off their feet
Speaking of sweet, we can’t go on unless we say
Leslie-Anne is good-humored like everyday
She can dance well too
She moves like MJ
I have a special place in my heart for students from CED
I had a great time working with Melinda in PS&C

M: Miguel Navarro
Is real far-out
His muscles are bulgin’ like superheroes of tomorrow
Jazzy jazzy music comes from Nanako
She’s a from up north Seattle where the sun don’t show
Nhan has fame with the tight computer games
When he sings a song he has no shame cuz he goes … Nhan, nhan nhan nnah nhan …etc
Noam-man does all he can to save calso from the bad guy’s evil plan
If your computer has a bad miscue, here comes noam man to the rescue
Sarah Kurien was a real good friend … she was always smilin’ when she wasn’t sleeping at the end
Is that a bullet or is it Shannan Hawes … she’s the fastest golden bear running on her paws
She’s the co-fac with the mostest … you may ask how do I know this … she was my co-fac a million times just walkin’ down to Bowditch

SONG

Shannon Smith’s from the land of dairy and cheese
She gave ten thousand awesome FYE’s
We loved hanging out with Sheirin
She’s one of the funniest people we’ve ever seen
A great FYE for Steph Grodin was scored
We’re glad she escaped from the mean chalkboard
Tammy Elwell was never a bore
It was great having her live next door
Tony was a counselor that was grand
(take out paper) He plays for the best damn band in the land
When striving for success look up to Ty
He takes 20 units and still looks fly
Vanessa often has deep profound thoughts
She’s politically active and she cares a lot
Yuh-Mei the bomb with Chemistry
She comes all the way from Tallahas…try? (look at each other)
Zully Chan does all she can
to spread joy across CalSO land
Those were all the counselors they are great to see
But where would we be without cords prostaff and Rhodies?

Coords, Prostaff (rap)

Renato is the man doin’ all he can
The parent program’s chill ‘cause he’s keepin’ it real
Leah steals the show with the tight video
She’s exceptional and superfly
Always on the go
Steph Lipman is the organized Frosh coordinater
She keeps her stuff in check and she step her spps on the hatas
She’s ferocious as a tiger but she’s lovable as a pup
You can’t stop her spirit ‘cause she’s figitty figitty fired up
Transfers are kept clean
‘cause Adrein Green’s on the scene
He huscles, flexes muscle and his style is clean
You know Steve, Sam and Nguyen are dandy
The best Rhodies in the world and they’re
Sweet like a candies

Ro, Frith and PJ work hard all day
To make counselees enjoy their stay
When times get hard they have our back
They help us keep it real and stay on track

When times got rough
We didn’t know what to do
We tried to stay tough
and we tried to stay true
We had so sticky moments
You know we got through

THANK YOU CALSO 2002
