Educationally related work outs include day to day homework such as math -and English. But they are most prominently seen midway through and at the end of the school year. For term papers, students occasionally give up their weekends to complete andfor cram for their exams. The most frequent way of working unplea- sant things out is the always full Detention Hall. As the end of the grading period draws near the detention halls steadily become more crowded as students try to clear their records so that they can leave on the last day of school not to return for three months for in the case of seniors - never to returnj and to begin the only thing that makes school seem worth- lace to ark.

,, .. :zz ' Ever wondered why there are only 24 hours in a day? Gr why lockers aren't made a few in- ches wider? Whether it be time to catch a favorite television pro- gram or squeezing an extra book into a locker, many students seem to have a problem fitting it all in. For examtple, working students o ten have a difficult time getting all of their homework completed before the start of class. During any lunch or before any tar- dy bell, students can be found frantically rushing to finish up their assignments in order to avoid a zero daily rade. Making those dread- ful trips to the library to do research for a term Eaper is another pro- lem fitting into their busy schedules. Bet- ween extra-curricular activities, homework and part-time jobs, term papers may end up be- ing avoided because there is so little time. Then there are those cold, winter days when students are seen dragg- ing their winter coats rt, 1., . sw , K rr J from class to class because the lockers simply are not big enough for everythin . Or how about that poster you had to make for an English resenta- tion? With all, of the papers, folders, and notebooks, you 'ust can't seem to still lt it all in. Cliques are another aspect of high school life in which students have the desire to fit in. People with similar in- terests seem to flock to each other in hopes of finding the place where 'l 'lllnuv.-.1 ff' .Q as Qi Park it! - A frequent sight at Berkner is the bumper to bumper parking lots full of cars owned by teachers and students. iPhoto by L.

How many times is that extra rehearsal, or planning meeting, or extra credit film for overnment scheduled fir the same time as the sit-com that you have looked for- ward to all week? No matter how hard you plan, sometimes there's no way to fit it all in. People in B lunch have had a special problem this ear fitting it in. The lack of cafe- teria chairs caused y great deal of commd tion getting the whol gang around the sam table. T Event or object, tim or space, fittin it in i often classiged ai another one of thos impossible feats life ha to offer. After all, there is onl so much space, and s little time.
