Getting Together Doused in sweat, you wait. Feet begin to ache as body weight shifts from foot to foot. Slowly you begin to move, your once freshly pressed pants and shirt are now saturated and stick- ing to your body. Your stomach turns as you pray that your twelve hour deodorant will last just a little while longer. Finally, you reach the window, and the waiting is over, you become the proud owner of the last two tick- ets to the most auspicious event of the year. This event was noth- ing out of unordinary as CHS stu- dents soon discovered that any- thing worth having had to be ob- tained through the unending process of lines. Lines formed for everything from purchasing tickets to going to the bathroom. Students be- came so obsessed with lines that at sports events they were more concerned about the line of ath- letes rather than the game. Even at half time all interest seemed to turn to how straight the line of Tornadoettes was, instead of their performance. This unnatu- ral obsession soon disappeared, but another quickly took its place . . . crowds. Crowds were an- other everyday hassle that the student body was forced to face. Everywhere students turned, it seemed that they were amidst a mass of humans. Throughout the crowds laugh- ter could be heard as students became better friends as half their school year seemed to be spent either waiting in a line or standing in a crowd. But even with all the confusion and hassle, students managed to maintain a record high level of patience and understanding.
