Trying To SttUfiay Si ty£e Make Those Love SeetttecC Connections Most people agree that weaving through the loving couples in the hall was some- what tiresome. Some couples find it necessary to be slightly affectionate with one another, to help each other get through the day to be sure. The student body had many ways to help originate a rela- tionship. One being Sadie Hawkins. Ah — a chance for the females to get top priority instead of waiting on him to ask for the date. In addition, to Sadie Hawkins, leap year feli this year and gave Magnet girls, as well as bachelorettes around the world, a chance to snag themselves a bachelor. Student Government Associ- ation attempted to make some love connections with their computer dating Service. Ev- eryone was given a sheet con- taining different types of per- sonality questions which were submitted back to the S.G.A. The much anticipated results arrived revealing the compati- bility of the students with one another. While some students were shocked and excited by their possible mates, others questioned the reliability of the Service. As did Byron Connell who said, “You can’t rely on those things. I don’t even know these people.” Stili in all it was another example of an innovative S.G.A. idea. Soci- ology students got a taste of the married scene. For exam¬ ple, students were married and given a certain budget to live with. Miss Susan Keith, who sponsored the project said, of it, “It gives the kids a chance to learn manageability of money and the lessons of sacrifice. Although the Soci- ology love connections were a mockery, one Magnet senior decided to make her relation- ship permanent. Pam Nether- ton became Mrs. Mark Miley on March 12, 1988. There was also another spectrum of romance, those which seemed to go on for months and months, but when asked if there were dating nei- ther persons ever really know. “It ' s a very delicate situation. It’s also very hard to detine ex- actly what a relationship is. I figure if you go out with a girl for five months you are dating; anything after that you are an official couple,” explained the wise voice of Sr. Darren Davis. People expressed their af- fection in many different ways. The most popular way amongst Seniors was certainly the exchanging of Senior rings. It’s hard to believe that everyone waited three and a half years for the honor of that ring, and soon after receiving it, they give it to their mate. I guess the old adage is correct, LOVE is blind. But I wonder if maybe it’s deaf, dumb, and blind, too. ROLE REVERSAL. Seniors Meg McJunckins and Scott Peatross have plenty to smile about on Ugly Miss night! SPICE OF LIFE
