Seniors warn underclassmen Count Your Credits You've got to be kidding!!! I ex- claimed when my counselor told me I would have to attend summer school to gain enough credits to receive my diplo- ma. Hot, sticky days spent in a class- room-the hours would drag by. Studying innards of an earthworm with several other students who failed to pick up credits-or simply failed-was not my idea of a great summer. With graduation iust around the cor- ner, the obstacle of credits blocked a few seniors from sailing smoothly through the year. Many spent their sum- mer attending summer school at Boise High. Others found themselves sitting in a room full of sophomores because they didn't pick up the classes needed to gra- duate earlier. But summer school and sophomore classes weren't the only so- lutions to the problem. Rich Brown took work study, which gave students two credits per semester for simply having an after school job. Rich stated, lt's a pain having to worry about it lamount of credits? and a pain having to worry about possibly not graduating. His ad- vice to underclassmen would be, Get the credits while you can and not screw around so you have to cram it all into summer school or your senior year. But no matter how a person got their credits, the senior class hoped the best for one another so that we could all share the celebration of Graduation- l987. it KIM DEGRAFF: Juiu we family made it!

One thing 's for sure lt Takes Big Bucks Many of us have experienced a feel- ing of despair when it seems impossible to obtain all the things we absolutely deem necessary to survive. Of course, what we usually desire has nothing to do with survival. That revelation came to me one day when I knew I would have to earn my own money. I thought, Wow! At 553.35 an hour, it will take me twenty years to purchase a new or even used 924 Porsche turbo, and by that time the car would be an antique. I learned then not to set my immediate goals so high and settled for a Moped. I would also like to obtain a college education. That also takes a lot of money. I'm praying for financial aid. I now work weird hours and all the sounds l used to enjoy like cool moun- tain streams and tennis balls hitting my racket are now replaced by Four macs, extra cheese, no onions, how long will that take? It's a great experience to earn my own money but it has also taught me that I don't intend to be a short order cook the rest of my life as l still intend to own that Porsche. If you don't have a rich relative, those big bucks won't come your way without a good educa- tion. Set your aspirations to the limit. Stay in school and make them a reality. make a pretty good team in Washing- ton. You know, me as president and you as vice! CARMEN CRAIG: As for us seniors, all we do is drive fast and party! LORI CRANDALL: There is no way we can get through high-school without good friends-like you Cari! JIM CRAWFORD: Life is like a ski hill, you have to start at the bottom to get to the top. ANGIE CREASY: Life is full of fascina- tions, Dreams are full of reality, put the two together and you can succeed. MELISSA CULPEPPER: If dreams were a color, they would be blue . . . if blue was a memory, it would be of you. BETH CUNNINGHAM: If you have built castles in the air your work need not be lost, that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them. MICHELLE CURTIS: Thank you Sherri for being the best friend a per- ,, son could ever have and thank you Tee for loving me. MELANIE DAVIS: I have become com- fortably numb.-Pink Floyd Seniors 7I
