Mr. Mac gives out tardy slips, which mean detention for those who take their time while getting to class. Hurry Up. As a person gets older, he learns to be more responsi- ble, and being on time comes with all of that responsibility. Being late is something that everyone must face at one time or another, especially a teenager. Time limits pertain to prac- tically everything in a teenager's life. A student has a due date for his research paper, five mintues to get to class, a curfew on weekends, and maybe, if his parents let him use the car, ten minutes to run his errands. lt gets frustrating after a while. Parents and teachers are always nagging. The nagiging just sometimes ma es the teenager want to rebel and be late on purpose. But, deadlines just make the student realize how im- portant it is to hit them, and it makes them want to be more responsible.

GIMME MY SPACE! This is my house, and as long as you're living in it . . Students don't have very much that belongs to them. Everythincg it seems is owned and rule by their parents. The few private spaces they do have, they personalize, letting everyone know it's theirs. The bedroom is about the most personal space people have, most students find this is the only place to talk on the phone with their friends or to get away from obnox- ious little brothers. Just by walking into a students room you can usually figure out immediate- ly the type of person they are. But bedrooms aren't the only personalized space people live in. If you own a car, you know what it's like to be in a hurry, and most of leur books end up in the ack seat as you rush off to class. After awhile, paper, books, trash, clothes and many other things start to pile up in the back seat and in the trunk.

With most of your books in the car, this leaves your locker almost totally empty, except for the posters and other junk. For some people, their infatuation with Michael J. Fox or Samantha Fox may cause them to turn their lockers into shrines, with billions of posters, buttons, and bandanas of their favorite actor or singer. Some people like to wallpaper their lockers with pictures of their best friends, or even turn it into a jungle with stuffed animals hanging from the ceiling of the lockers. For others, their lockers are so piled up with papers, books, trash, and more trash, that it's impossi- ble to tell what's inside.
