 9 Bus 83-4 hod to trovel 134 miles o day to take students to school ond bock. Many students hod to moke the best of long distances at least once a day. Different people hod different approaches to this; some took this opportunity to cotch up on sleep, homework. gossiping, or just storing out the window. If you hove ever ridden a school bus before, you realized that it was very hard to do any of this. There al- ways seemed to be kids that ran around ond screamed things like: Vour window always leaks when it rains! It won't go up when it's cold and won't come down when it's hot. find for some reason you could sometimes count on the bus driver being in o bod mood, usually when you were in a bod mood. UUhat if you hod to ride the bus four times a day? Some people did. UUho were these crozy people you osk? The vo-tech students. Every- day they loaded up in the bus and rode 8 miles to Louisburg to take 3 hours of classes. Junior, Tim Blecher hod this to soy about the vo-tech bus. The vo-tech bus sometimes got o little rowdy. UJe sung songs and threw M M's and gave the drivers heck. We're sorta one big family that tried to moke boring things into a little fun! If you were in extracurricular ac- tivities you might hove traveled o long distance to meet your competi- tion. The Buffalo Gols traveled over 350 miles to Independence. Kansas and bock to march in the Neewollah Parade. The speech people traveled to Joplin to participate in a speech meet. Athletes traveled to Bronson to compete. Most students, sometime in the year, hod to trovel the long distances to school or school related activities. But we always tried to moke the best of it!

c, xp r (tc y i Ordinary, but Special The wonderful sound of alarm clocks reminded us of the day we were about to face. Maybe you were one of those who opened up the closest door and tried to pick out what to wear that day; some of us cored and some of us didn't core what we wore. Or. maybe some of us spent our morn- ings waiting for a bus. running after o bus. or screeching into the parking lot before the bell rung; but once we oil got there, we tried to “Moke the Best of the School Day , together. Remember, cramming in for that lost minute test or finishing up that homework that was supposedly to be done? Many of us experienced these encounters doily, but most of us especially looked forward to doing what we liked best - just being with our friends, catching up on the latest news, socializing, and just coping with oil the hassles during the day like the lunch lines, crowded halls, the weath- er. school activities. UJe experienced many ordinary things this year, but they were special in one way or an- other; we did them together and ‘Mode the Best of It! . Deedro Lowe.
