Hi, I’m Eli Vaglica, and welcome to the Blueprint. This is my second year of Blueprint. I somehow managed to become the blogs editor.

I’m a senior at Bellwood-Antis High School. I write articles on music, some pop culture, a bit of American politics, social commentary, a little bit of this and that. I’d like to think of my writing as me just being myself, but I’d also like people to maybe learn a thing or two about what I think. I might like to do journalism outside of school, but I’m not really sure what I want to do.
