A guest speaker at the first senior meeting managed to hold the attention of most of the class. Listening to instructions for the current history assignment are Frank Link and Jeff Perkins. Getting the sports section finished are two yearbook staff members Bri- an Wilson and Darby Shaffer. It ' s got to be here somewhere thinks senior, Nitaya Tientong, as she searches through her papers for the homework as- signment. ctually, there were few sen- iors who wanted absolutely everything and wouldn ' t settle for less than it all for just themselves. However, when we put the entire senior class of 1986 to- gether, all 425 of us, our needs and wants covered just about anything any of us could imagine. I ' d say I was in the part of the senior class that wanted to succeed in school work, claimed Machel Williams. Some of us definitely wanted to be well known among the student body. I did, confessed Jake Williams. I ' ve al- ways just wanted to finish everything that I ever started, and succeed in my studies, stated Nitaya Tientong. A desire to get the job done and a longing to see things finished were wide-spread goals echoed by Patryce Richmond and Jin Kim. A second wide- ly held want was the desire to bring ' em up or maintain scholastically. These goals were specifically ex- pressed by Tract Triplett and Laura Danni. Maintaining high scholastic goals was not always easy as the majority of the senior class held jobs, but not with the desire to spend, spend, spend. Most claimed that they were working to save, save, save for a major want like cars, insurance, and college. By the time the class of ' 86 became seniors they had found new and better ways to balance their wants and needs of life in order to prepare themselves for a new beginning after graduation. 1 1 ! 1 1 l 1 i 1

Dreamscape from school to the future A As dedicated and hardworking as the senior class was, there were those occasional moments when each and ev- eryone was hit with the urge to day- dream. Daydreams became a creative form of escape from daily routines, ex- cessive pressure, or even from listen- ing when an instructor spoke. Being mostly normal human beings, the vast majority of the class admits to day- dreaming most consistently about guys and or girls, but here ' s a glimpse into some specific daydreams.
