Sandy Martinez is from the Philippines. She is sixteen years old and comes from a family of eight. When asked if she likes the United States she replied, Yes, because it is different and is a really nice experience coming here and living here. Sandy likes Anchor Bay High because she has a choice of which subjects, teachers and hours she wants. She does not like the pass system here or the fact that Anchor Bay does not have a smoking lounge. The difference between the U.S. and the Philippines are the school system, the weather, the customs of the people, and all the fried foods there are here. replied Sandy. Sandy enjoys swimming, reading, playing badminton, biking, drawing and likes to listen to disco music. ki Tor Vage is 16 years old and is from Norway. When he was asked if he likes it in the U.S. he replied, lt's not bad, really different. The food is good but there's a lot of junk food, maybe too much. The school here is too strict it's unreal. You are locked up in the lunchroom and never have a break during the day. lt's too much like a prison. Tor is an active athlete here and in Norway. He speed skates and ski's during the winter, runs track, soccer ball and disco dances during the warmer months. He likes all types of music, from hard rock to classical and thinks the U.S. is great but is also looking forward to going home. Gerd Sarnes is 17 years old and from a family of 6 in West Germany. In Germany Gerd was a life guard, he taught little children to swim, he played volleyball and was in the folklore group. Not only is Gerd a yearbook photographer but also was involved in football and was a manager of the volleyball team. He has been doing a lot of camping with his American family on the weekends. In doing so he has had a chance to see Chicago, Washington D.C., Canada and is planning a summer trip to Arkansas. He is enjoying his stay here in America.

Monica Pinto is from a family of six in Sao Paulo, Brazil. She has lived there for fifteen years and has come over to the United States, in which she enjoys immensely. Monica likes Anchor Bay especially because of the teach- ers and classes. A few things she doesn't like about Anchor Bay, is that the girls gossip too much she says and some- times the food is not to her taste. For enjoyment she dances and teaches ballet, she even joined the Spanish Club and she likes any type of music. Veronica Varela is from Chile. Veronica enjoys swimming, reading and sleeping. She likes most all types of music and likes her American mother's cooking. Veronica is an active member in the Spanish Club. She feels this school is easier than the school in Chile. In Chile she has 13 classes a year, but most of the time she likes our school system. The people in Chile are more romantic, the U.S. people are always think- ing about money. But all things considered she says, this year is one of her best, shwill'always treasure and never for- get Anchor Bay. 98 5... nu-u Thomas Eutebach is 17 years old and he comes from Cologne, Germany. He feels there are many impressive things to see here and that the U.S. is big and has many places, unlike Germany. The U.S. has more quantity than quality in his eyes. The only objection to our food is that most of it is canned or frozen. As far as school goes he enjoys having a choice of classes, but does not necessarily agree with the security and regula- tions. Other than that the school rates as O.K. During his stay here at Anchor Bay. Thomas is on the bas- ketball team and chess club. He enjoys wind surfing and lis- tens to a certain music, depending upon what mood he's in. This has been a big experience for me replies Tom.
