STUDENT LIFE Drawing Together Thoughts of high school have always brought to mind text books, teachers, classes, rules and report cards, but the most cherished of our high school thoughts include each other. Who would have guessed that funny- looking boy with acne and glasses who always seemed to be tripping over his own feet in your freshman gym class would be the same one who (by some miracle) would be escorting you to the junior prom. Or that silly dressed girl sitting next to you in your sophomore geometry would be the same one you ' d be rooming with your freshman year away at college. We all, at one time or another, have claimed that we surely could have sur- vived without high school (whether it was right before a biology final or right after a pop quiz in English) But in the back of our minds are stored some of our dearest memories, all which include our high school days. The chilly football games, where our toes got frostbitten and our team was unbelievably defeated, were special because we spent them sitting huddled under a blanket with five other friends when the blanket was only big enough to fit a single bed. The typing class that was nearly flunked became special when the boy you sat next to was typing I ' m bored over and over again the same as you were, causing a conversation to start which developed into a lasting friendship. Study hall was looked forward to when excuses for not going were ac- cepted and you hopped in the car with a friend to drive to Dunkin Donuts for breakfast and the latest gossip. Being suspended, receiving blue slips, or serving detentions was worth remembering because it would ob- viously never be forgotten, and the partners in crime usually came to be lifetime buddies. Even the struggling we went through over six classes our senior year, when it seemed everyone else only had three, became special when A ' s were earned in five of them. And as the year went on, the shouts of Who needs school? became a little fainter, and the buzz of the 6 a.m. alarm clock became a little less annoying, and the cries for vacations became a little less desperate as the students of Elmhurst became a lot closer and a lot livelier. ff iMBHHHV ' j n H MEJIKi w it Wtf 1 xnn wrWm I Bk ' . fT jyy - 1 KmI V ii H|l S mm HH wm B I B Fftr ' Si yb ■ 1 w H : S 1 ' I(£ Sap W l B f KT J£j | H-l A group of Trojans watch intently as a skit is per- formed at the Homecoming pep session.
