Mere Kim Chandler experiences ihe adventures funiors eagerly looked forward to becoming of American literature. Serious studying has to esteemed seniors. We’re ready for take-off. be done since being a junior is not strictly fun. they claimed as they struck up a typical senior pose. Upper classmen anticipate success in 1985 Being a junior means that there is only one year before I graduate, and let me tell you that’s a pretty good feeling! I guess I could also say that I like being a junior because I am now labeled an “upper classman”; no longer am I a freshman who is barely noticed and is offered elevator tickets” by the seniors at the beginning of the year. Although it feels good to be in eleventh grade, it is not all fun and games. I think that this year will be my hardest year ever; the work is definitely more complicated, and there is more of it! juggling two honors courses along with my other college prep classes isn’t easy to say the least. But I am gaining important knowledge from these classes—knowledge which I know will be a benefit to me in my college years. I am glad to be a junior, and I feel that I have matured a lot since I came to Ashtabula High. Hopefully, that maturity will guide me down the right path, one which will lead to a bright future and great success. Only one more year to go and I'm on my way— to the future!

Driving h dandy ! Juniors enjoy the opportunity for freedom Where’s the brake? What's that other thing down there? Oh. yes! It’s the gas pedal. Do I have the right key? I hope this isn’t the house key. Calm down. It’s just a driver's test. Right? Right. Come on. Conscience, help me out. here. Where the heck is that police officer? Doesn’t he know that I've been waiting for 15 minutes? Oh. it’s been just five. I bet he's doing this on purpose. He wants me to flunk; I know it. I probably will flunk. I want to go home. Oh no. Here he comes. He looks like a monster. I wish I could get out of here. He’s coming closer. Where’s the seat belt? Where is that gas pedal again? Good; I found it. He's here. Yes, that’s me.” I bet he counts that against me. I'm allowed only 26 points off. Help me. Lord! Why doesn't he say something. Oh. I guess I should start the car. I'm so stupid. I could kick myself for being so dumb. Just take it easy. Obey the signs and speed limits and you’ll be fine. Oh. no. a rural area. I’m not very good in these parts. First time for everything I guess. Watch it. dog. Don’t you know I'm taking a test? Did he take a point off for stopping so fast? A car’s coming. Should I wait or turn now? Will he take points off? Oh. well, it’s too late now. Phew! Finally out of there. Gearing up gelling ready to go home from school is |amic Carr. Besides driving to and from school. |amie used his car for work and just cruising around. Maybe I’ll get through this. Why is this guy so quiet? I wonder whether I could turn the radio on. No. he wouldn't like it. There’s Mom. Why does she have to be here? Doesn't she know how nervous I am! Don’t watch me like that. Mom. Oh. no. there are the cones. They’re smaller than 1 remember them, just take it easy. Turn slightly to the right now. I hope I remember how to do this. Now to back up. Is he going to tell me to go or not? I feel like a jerk. Here goes. What did he say? ’’What?’’ The cone? Oh. for Heaven's sake. Got to back up and start all over again. I'm glad he warned me in time. Maybe he’s not so bad after all. Concentrate now. I’m past that cone. Take it slow. Yippie! Made it! Now what? Did I pass? He's so quiet. Why doesn't he say something? What’s this? I passed? Yes. with four points to spare. Hi, Mom. I passed. I knew it all the time. Nothing to it.” Oh. how nice. Mom says she’ll buy me a key ring. I don't even have a car key. Next I can get a car. Any kind. Just as long as it runs. I won’t have to depend on anyone. This is going to be great. What fun I'm going to have. Wait until I show everyone. It was a piece of cake. I can't believe how easy this whole thing was. Watch out. World, here I come.
