. . . Younger Days Although it seems as if the past four years have flown by, we are able to remember days when we thought we would never come this far. Those were our younger days. Then, rather than concentrating on which college was best or which job would be the most satisfying, we thought of the best name for our teddy bears and wondered what kind of cookies our mothers baked for a snack. As we grew, our priorities began to change. And now, as we look forward to the future, we fondly remember the care- free days of our youth. 7 vP ::i-™ ' X m L

School Days For the past four years, our school has been like a second home for us. We have done everything here except sleep, and a few of us have done that. We arrived here at 7:30 AM each day, (an hour no human being should ever have had to see), and we left at various times in the afternoon. For the many of us who were involved in sports, our day didn't end until 5:00. We have taken many different sub- jects here at BR, one of which was History. History was a very informa- tive subject, especially for those of us who hadn't realized that history con- sists of a lot more than just what happened last Friday night. Another subject we will not easily forget is English. Over the years we have learned many different vocabu- lary words, like decadence, rudiment, and subsidiary. Sometimes vocabu- lary was difficult and time consuming for us but the time spent will be worthwhile when we impress our fu- ture bosses with our knowledge. It is too bad our bosses may not under- stand a word we are saying! Another subject we took was Biol- ogy. We had to dissect frogs and pigs just to discover that animals have the same insides we have! It would have been a lot more interesting if we were allowed to dissect something indistin- guishable, like the school lunches! And how could we forget the ever- famous subject of math? One thing we may wonder in years to come is why we ever had to take math in the first place, when computers can do the math for us! Our school has been a very special place for us. It has given us the knowl- edge we will need for adulthood, and has brought us together as a class. Hopefully the past four years have been equally wonderful for all of us, and in years to come we all will look back on our high school years with a smile.
