Anticipation is the name of the game your senior year. You are finally approaching the goal that seemed so far away four years ago. Every purchase that labels you a senior, every activity that divides you from the rest, brings the final step iust a little big closer. The waiting begins with ordering a senior ring, through the school or through an outside jeweler. The next decision a senior had to make was the kind of senior shirt he wanted, and what design best represented the feelings of the Class of '78. T Anticipation was heightened in the beginning of the senior year, with 76 seniors ordering caps, gowns and invitations. The planning stages began with organizing the senior trip to the coast. Eventually, the days of finality approached, as invitations were received and distributed. The stark realization that their high school years were rapidly drawing to a close came with the arrival of caps and gowns. The preparatory assembly before Baccalaureate brought gradu- ation ceremonies even closer. l Senioritis ran rampant, as sen- iors gave a last ditch effort to bring their grades up so they would be exempt from finals.

It was the one day that you were legally allowed to be absent, and for many, the first Cand lastj time all year to be a part of the senior class. What made the picnic really spe- cial, besidesgetting out of school for the day, was spending an entire day with just seniors -- one of the last times we would all be together, commented Cathy Dourte. The picnic, held at Zilker park, opened with rousing frisbee and vol- leyball games that warmed everyone up. Finally, the food arrived and a long line of people waiting to eat formed. Eventually, everyone had a chance at the barbeque. ' After the meal was done, some seniors left for the lake, while others went to Barton Springs for a swim. Friends got a chance to spend a day eating, swimming and talking. But more than that, seniors got an opportunity to see each other outside of school, as people and as peers, before the day of. . . 1.
