orry, l can't eat fast food. l'm on a diet again! This reply by ' junior Cathy Tae was a response which was often expressed by many students. ln a poll of CV students, 78 of 100 students had once dieted or were presently dieting. The types of diets were almost as numer- ous as the dieters. Nutrisystem, Weight Watchers, high carbohydrate, vegetarian, and fasting were just a few of the many diets which the students used to lose weight. ln praise of her favorite diet, senior Libby Vukojevich stated, l don't think that G6 W people should concentrate so much on their weight that they eat nutritionally un- balanced meals. l think vegetarian diets are the best because they clean out my system and make me feel healthier. Whether they wanted a major weight loss or just dieted to lose a few pounds, students were not embarrassed to admit that they were on diets. Actually, they were proud to say that they were on their way to a trim' mer, healthier self. by Kimberly Downs t's a disease!

oncentration. Other tennis team hopefuls look on while senior Brian Savage displays intense strategic movements. At tryouts, ev- 'yone got a chance to experience competition. uiet! People taking a test! Each person in this classroom feels the pressure to pass the test Some strived for the highest grade when Hers just wanted to pass. M if-4, f44ead0 e felt the trickle of sweat roll down his back. He could not con- tain the onset of emotions emerging from his mind, for this was where the competitive spirit began. For that intellectual person, this meant the desire for the top grade on a test. To the runner, the competition was against time. At tryouts, everyone competed against ev- eryone else to discover who would be cho- sen and who would be rejected. As junior Jimmy Lee pointed out, Com- peting is part of human nature. Most agreed that it was a good quality assuming that it would not be taken to an extreme, such as resorting to an act of cheating. Competition also played a major role in sports. For the victor, it boosted self-confi- dence. For the defeated, this spirit often ignited the will to try harder. Many pre- ferred the unity of team sports like freshman basketball player Greg Grider. He said, l'd rather compete as part of a team so we'd all share the glory or the defeat. Whether the people were trying out for a part in a play or a spot on the pep squad, competition existed. Some people thrived on it because it brought out the best in them. As varsity songleader Ashley Novak stated, The better the competition, the lesser the chance to win, but more impor- tantly, the more challenging it is. Once the will to compete was ignited, people strived to attain their. best. Freshman Kenny Rhee stated, Without competition, life would lack determination and excitement. by Mary Jung Freshmen 2
