Straight from the land of raging bulls and matadors came Colonel Crawford’s year exchange student, Carlos Torres. Coming from the captial city of Spain, Madrid, Carlos’ first noticeable differ¬ ence between his home and here was life in the country. He came to the U.S. hoping to learn English, to meet new people, and to discover new places. In comparing our school system to his, Carlos says that we definitely have more of a choice in course offerings and extra-curricular activities, that he nev¬ er moves to different classes, and that his studies are much harder. Wanting to become a pilot or an aeronautics engi¬ neer, Carlos has plans to further his education at college. There are five members in his family: his father, Car¬ los; his mother, Suani; his brother, Al¬ berto; and his grandmother. Besides his family, he misses his dog, Sokee, his friends, his warmer weather, and his native language. Carlos leaves these Spanish words with the students of Col¬ onel Crawford: Gracia por la acogida que me oisteis. Este ano ha sido muy importante para mi, gracias. Gracias por haberme dado a conocer una nueva len- gua y cultura desconocida para mi. Translated it means: Thanks for the re¬ ception you gave me. This year has been very important for me, thank you. Thanks for showing me a new language and culture unknown to me. Que clase de primavera es esta? This is what you might have heard from our exchange student, Diego Illingworth, from Quayaquil, Ecuador. Translated it means: What kind of spring is this? The reason that Diego would have said this is that he had never seen snow before he came to Ohio, and he arrived on one of the worst winter days in February. He was at Colonel for three months dur¬ ing his break from school. Diego wanted to come to the U.S. because he wanted to learn more English as he wants to study in an American college to become an electronics engineer like his father and brother. In Ecuador, his school is much harder. He attends a Catholic school for all boys and he usually has five hours of homework each evening. In his school there are three course choices; Physics Math, which he takes; Chemical Biology; and Sociology. His family members are: his father, Ricar¬ do; his mother, Fabiola; his sister, Maria Gabiella; and his brother, Daniel. Diego missed his parents and his dog, Blacky. He also missed going to the beach to his other house on the weekends and will miss all his new friends in the U.S. For Jackie Stuckert, being 2nd Runner-Up to the Bratwurst Queen has given her senior year a different meaning. This past year, fif¬ teen girls went out for the competition. Jack¬ ie, along with the other girls, had to first go through the preliminaries, where the top ten were chosen and then through the finals, where the top three were chosen. Jackie went through some tough judging as the judges were looking for personality, conversational adeptness, appearance, poise, and her German costume. During her senior year, Jackie will travel all over Ohio; she has already been to the Tomato Festival in Reynoldsburg, the Ap¬ ple Festival in Jackson, the Swiss Festival in Sugar Creek, the Antique Festival in Millers- burg, and a mall show in Columbus. She en¬ courages any interested girl to enter this pageant because beauty is only skin deep, and it’s the inside person that really shines!
