Photo by Mary Beth Tritt Everyday we are faced with deci X ' sions from what to wear to school to what college i y apply to. These decisions shape our lives and futures. We X , find ourselves trapped between wanting to be independent and X f g y the uncertainty of what to do with our lives. Addedto this is paren- r X g tal pressure, peer pressure and the pressure from school. There is alot X I of pressure, especially your senior year concerning where you want to go and I what you want to do with your life, said Claudia White.I'I2I.. 0 Who makes .most of the decisions concerning students and what they do? It's a split' between I my ,parents and me. I like them to help because they're wise, sometimes I don't lilike their decisions though, said Amy Bink f12i.,Gopi Sandhu I11ji added, It's kind of across between me and my mom - we cooperate. I feel I'm old enough to make I my own decisions, but I still need advice. O Many found advice from others to be benefi- l cial in making decisions. I usually ask the advice of people who've had experience, like my I parents and friends, said Sandhu. I think about the good things and the had things and X then I ask somebody else, added Karen Willis 4101. O Many studentshad others advise them. on choosing a college and then a profession. Choosing a college is the mosttimportant decision I'm faced with now, said White. For others, financial choices have to be made. I have money deci- sions - how much to spend on what, said Virginia Richardson ITU. Time and how to spend it was also a dilemma. 'fi have to decide how to spread my time around, whether to spend time doing my homework or something else, said Sandhu. QOther important decisions students are faced with are decisions about kinds of lifestyles to pursue. I had to decide whether to drink or not. I don't l like to drink, but other people are saying 'come on, have some fun'. I think about my parents j and how l'll feel in the morning, that always helps me decide, said Mike Ruff 001. Josh Wilson fl 4125 included whether or not to go to school in New York , as one of his major decisions. Whether choosing an outfit or applying to a college, we make decisions ,Il N everyday, decisions that will shape our lives. Someday we will look back on our decisions iff f and wonder whether we made the right choices. But for now we are coniident I ,.rf I XXX in mir decisions because we know that We've Got What it Takes.
