Nan J. Feldman Happiness makes up in height for what it lacks in length. Frost Thomas A. Ferguson Meet the new boss, Same as the old boss. P.T Four short years. Last year Choir and Ensemble performed at three of the elementary schools, the second being Lawrence, my esteemed alma mater. There were six members of the Ensemble who also went to Lawrence, Including my brother and three of his closest friends, all seniors. It was quite a sight to see those four, who were on the verge (it was April) of completing a whole segment of their lives, perform beautifully for their former teachers who had seen them leave four years ago as children and now saw them return as young adults. Just a short while ago they were so small and young, and all of a sudden they were there, in formal dress, handsome men and beautiful women, radiating maturity, self-confidence and poise. It all brought home to me what education really means, in four years at Brookline High school each of these kids had found his or her niche, the things that they were really good at, and they had latched onto those activities and grown and matured with them and drawn out the excellence that had been dwelling inside of them all along. Think about it. we ' ve all done the same thing, found a place for ourselves here, and it has meant a lot. The teachers — they watch the process unfold, they facilitate it. High School is the place where you begin to find out who you are. Education in itself is that entire process, one that hopefully never ends. To think that we won ' t be a part of BHS next year, that the everything will continue to function without us, is very scary because for the last few months we have been very important people in a very important institution. Whatever we have learned though, we will take with us when we leave, and that is what makes it all worthwhile. Patricia Ferris Harrison A.

Tell Us About Yourself Here I sit, with the application to my first choice school in front of me. The page is Plank and due in two weeks. Okay, what do they want me to do? They want to get to know me as a person. They want to know all about me in two hundred words or less. What do they really want? Do they want to know how embarrassed I am when I remember how drunk I got at my first C.Y.O. dance as a freshman? Or how long it took me to learn that school dances were dull (but that everyone goes anyway)? Do they want to know how long it takes to clean up a house at the end of the weekend after someone ' s parents took a vacation? Or how many people you can fit in a station wagon on a sunny Saturday morning? Or how long it takes four girls to change a tire at midnight on a Friday? Do they want to know how much fun Mr. G ' s class was? Or how many times I fell asleep in Math? Or how far in advance I studied for exams Senior year? Did I study? Or how much I appreciated doing detention for being thirty seconds late for A-Block’ Do they want to know how I spent the mornings that carnations were given out wondering if he” sent one? Or about yelling at skinny runners who went by our soccer practices? Or what went on in the back of the lacrosse bus? Do they care how much I am going to miss Brookline but how much i want to get out of here? (Does that make sense?) i look back at the still blank application. No, somehow I don ' t think any of that is what they expect. I guess they really want to know me. So, here goes.
