Should you roll out of bed and hit the books, or grab fif- teen heavenly minutes of sleep? Most likely you haven ' t tuned into that class since last Thursday and you are proba- bly doomed to fail anyway, so you might as well take a snooze . . . Although this situation may sound familiar, most students did find more efficient ways to study. I got all my studying done during my free seventh period, commented John Dearborn. Greg Ponomeroff agreed. I did a little home- work in my free period. That way, I could do whatever I wanted after school. Others found studying to music the best way to learn. I would lie on the floor and turn on my stereo, explained Les- lie Wood. It was hard to con- centrate if it was too quiet. Janet Burris contradicted her. The music distracted me if I was really trying to under- stand something, she said. A couple of people found unique modes of studying. Sarah Linke mentioned, When we swam laps during practice, there wasn ' t much to think about except for the things I ' d been learning in school. That was when I ' d see if I had certain things memor- ized. I would lie on my wa- terbed when I did my homework; said Georgia Ha- ber, I hardly ever got sea- sick! Hiring a tutor remained a popular way to better under- stand difficult subjects. I had Susan Daane help me with my pre-algebra, said Stephanie Latuka. She explained things clearly. It really helped. So what, you might ask. You still have to face that chemistry test. There ' s only one thing to do. Before your next big exam rolls around, take the advice of one of these people, and find some way to study that works for you! Green pastures. Warm weather encourages Terry Mattox to study on Sophomore Lawn during his free sixth period. When the sun was shining, people found the outdoors preferable to the more confining atmosphere of the library. Writer ' s cramp. Susan Daane begins her homework for Norma Alsterlind ' s third period American History class. Assignments in required courses such as American History were usually more numerous and time consuming than those in elective classes. Bookmobile. Buried in his book, Michael Hesse walks to school along Reliez Valley Road. Many students used every spare moment to catch up on their studies. 161 LOWER CLASS

The perfect gentleman, John Dahlgren opens the car door for his date, Kathy McNeill, as they leave to see Hopscotch at the Orinda Park Theater. Because of a lack of other entertainment options, going to the movies remained a typical Saturday night date. Date: (dat) noun — An appoint- ment to go out so- cially with a member of the op- posite sex. Somehow, the def- inition of dating leaves one without a single clue or warn- ing of the flustering, awkward moments that frequently arise . . . Have you ever been dancing with a date and had someone murmur in your ear, Lady, your skirt is in a heap on the floor? What do you do? Pick it up and say, oh, it didn ' t come unfastened, I planned that? Crystal Bru, rather reluctantly commented, It happened to me! I ' m just thankful that I was wearing a leotard. Can you imagine being run over by your boyfriend? It actu- ally happened. Luckily the girl wasn ' t hurt, but look out for the culprit; he ' s still on the prowl. Sean Murray said, It wasn ' t my fault, and it wasn ' t my girlfriend ' s either. I just didn ' t see her when I was mov- ing the car and she didn ' t see me. It never fails. When you ' re trying your very hardest to im- press someone, something devastating always seems to happen. At the time such an in- cident arises you may feel like crawling into a closet or put- ting a paper bag over your head. The best remedy, how- ever, is to fight back. Don ' t let those awkward moments get you down. If you can laugh off an unbearable situation, your date will probably be impres- sed . . . Remember the time you were saying goodnight to your date on the front porch and you both saw your sister peering out the front window? You couldn ' t help but wonder how long she ' d been there . . . Julie Sussman said, I was so embarrassed; I felt like stran- gling my sister. However, at the time I tried to play it down and laugh at it so my date would laugh, too. Laughter is the best way to get out of an awkward situation. Beware! These crazy mis- haps can happen to anyone — even you! Although you may wince when recalling the disas- trous happenings on your last date, in years to come you won ' t be able to hold back the chuckles when thinking of those unfortunate evenings spent dating. 162 LOWER CLASS
