QUQI' fA8 0POLP8 On lhe eve of one's graduafion, if is nice lo pause and reflecl' on whal one has gained menlally, morally and physically from lhe course iusl com- pleled. To go from lhe laHer +o +he former, I have learned in my Senior year how 'ro accomplish a physical feel prac+iced by few-+ha+ of going six periods wilhoul so much as a drop of wafer. My moral educalion can be summed up in Iwo senlences: Ill Never lalk back 'ro Miss O'Donnell. l2l Never I'hrow paper clips around 'rhe room-spilballs make less noise. And Iasl, and by all means Ieasl, we come fo +ha+ par+ of my educalion referred +o as menlal. Wilhoul a doubl, my menlal developmenl is amazing leverybody says soll and I owe a greal deal of if lo my high school educalion. Of all +he courses +ha+ I have laken, +he one lhal' slands oul' as lhe mosl unlorgellable, and The mosl useful is malh. Malh is an up and coming subiecl. Well, as far as malhemalics is con- cerned, I am down and going. Firsl of all, lhe ulilily of mal'h has always impressed me. When asked my age, no longer do I repeal lhe old, old adage, Free, while and under lwenly-one. Thal s only for sfudenls who have noi sludied malh. Inslead, I say nonchalanlly, lf you double my bro+her's age, add x cubed minus 22, lefling x equal 3.78, and square lhe resull, you will have one-half my age plus 'rhree monI'hs. As far as 'rriangles are concerned in geomelry, I gol along perfecfly, probably due lo fhe effecls of all 'rhe olher woman movies lhal Holly- wood has been showing. When lhe class was promofed fo circles, however, I resumed lhe 'rrack I'ha+ I had almosl' worn oul in my algebra class, +he one righl' in +he middle of +he ruf. Circles never ceased fo mysfify. Forlu- nalely, we had a lriangular Regenls. Henceforlh, and for +he resl' of my life, x will mean somefhing 'ro eal for breakfasl, 2x will be somelhing 'rha+ you need when baking a cake, and lriangles will be only lhings lo be 'frequenlly changed on babies.
