22,3±o The school year — an eerie hailoween- like party — has begun. Each guest enters with a unique mask, trying to dis- cover more about the others, growing from the knowledge learned. When meet- ing some people at the masquerade, look for the ones with helping hands and aid- ing smiles — they are the ones you want to be friends with. The party, or school year as it is so fondly known, is young. Most of the guests are just now entering. Entering is the easiest part, remaining is what gets harder and harder. Most people who get as far as the doorway make it in and remain their allotted time. Inside, they meet the most interesting characters. Wayne High School, 9100 Winchester Road, Fort Wayne, Indiana will turn into a faded photograph, a memory. The frame around it strong, the picture itself weak and crumbling. Eight years ago Jean Dixon predicted the caving in of the gym- nasium, but this brick frame has with- stood students and blizzards. It is the staff and students that have come and gone. Currently, Wayne stands strong, with smiles on all entering guests. Happi- ness is the only goal in life. So, come honored guest and talk with some friends.

i 1- ' % a ,e During first period I glance at the cal- endar and anxiously number the days until graduation. During second period I fix my eyes on the clock and calculate the hours until I take my seat at the Coliseum. During third period I grab a piece of scrap paper and figure out the minutes until I reach for my diploma. During fourth period I consider calcu- lating the seconds but that would take too much time and I ' m tired of adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing. I ' m tired of nouns and verbs, pioneers and revolutionists, earthworms and frogs. I ' m tired of school and that bothers me. When I look back it ' s not such a bad place. I did a lot of learning here, not just learning about good sentence structure and who was the 17th President of the United States, but I learned about people and through them, learned rriyself. These dull gray walls that surround me as I write weren ' t always dull and gray. The people that surround me now didn ' t always seem dull and typical. But I seem to have become dull myself. Has the world around me changed so much or am I just looking at it differ- ently? Why is it after three years of bursting with fresh ideas my imagination is sud- denly barren? It ' s time to move on and I know it. It ' s time to leave this security blanket
