The Disease • • • Senioritis. With only one known cure — Grin and Bear it ’til Graduation Boredom, Restlessness, Anxiety, and Nervousness: all severe symptoms of a terrible disease which plagued many Seniors in past years and in the Class of 1985. The last few months the Seniors spent in school were filled with mixed emotions. It was a fear of growing up and facing new ex- periences in life independently which scared us to death. Yet, finally reaching the point of graduation and accomplishing something we have worked for 12 long years made us ecstatic. We were definitely excited about graduating, but frightened as to the thought of losing the security we had obtained at home and school. “Senioritis is a fatal disease.” Many of us were familiar with this sentence from the sign posted in Mr. Bottorf’s room. The disease was proven deadly as some Seniors became frustrated due to their confusion, and simply gave up. This caused failure and eliminated all hope of graduating in '85. Although most Seniors overcame Senioritis, it certainly took its toll. The cure was simple. It required taking each day slowly and confidently. You had to direct your thoughts toward a future event: graduation or a trip to Ocean City. You had to take a lot of deep breaths, and grin and bear it. Franklin IV. Sandra D. Harold Colleen M.
