it . bln Ji.. H l rockettg a city within itself, where its citizens grow a lit- tle wiser each day and are taught the meaning of life. Like every other city, it is also di- vided into many different cliquesg from the kickers constant rivalry with the freaks, the active social life of the preppies and their jocks, from the whirl-wind talent of the breakers, to the laid back style of the low riders. Oh eah, there is that other bunch, the dieshmen. As one walks through Crockett's front doors it is impossible to miss the kickers stomping, ground, which is across from the li rary in the far corner Kas far away from reading material as they can get! commonly called Kicker Corner. Dressed in boots, cowboy hats, and Wranglers, the kicker trademarks stand out well. Hey, Bubba. You seen my new truck? Yeah, I keep it real dirty so people will think that I really use it. At the ofrposite end of the school you will fin the freaks at a place which is called the Smoking Cir- cle .Complete with cigarette in hand, dressed in faded blue jeans and con- cert t-shirts, you'll see them quicklg taking that last drag before they rus to Health class. Killer concert Huh? God, I've never seen so much smoke in my life, man. When we opened the doors they must've thought there was a fire in there. When you climb the main stairs there is another kind of zoo to con- tend with, this is the Preppie Zone . You can only imagine how manly alligators roam aroundg most fo - lowed closely bly a man on a horse called Polo . he outfit would not be complete without the kakhi shorts or designer jeans. Oh no! She's wearing the same dress as I am, will someone bplease take me home so I can channge- OW! Like a fashion show, the ocks have many eyes uron them. Jocks all wear identical jac ets, with a C sewn on the left front side. The jacket must be uncomfortable since its wearers all have a peculiar sort of walk. This clique tries to make every one believe that they are the hardiest partiers that ever lived. The idea that they are actually students is a kept secret. Hey bud, who's parents are going out of town this weekend? I need to call the pleolple and tell them where to deliver t e egs! V The breakers can be found on the basement floor blockingo the elevator doors. A large jam x is always just out of view from the ad- ministration and faculty, but usually loud enough for all to hear. During break they ut on their own talent showg usually returning to third period sweati and out of breath. 'Hey guy, w ere'd you get your shoe laces., man? Who's got t e cardboard, man. The freshmen won't admit it when asked what grade they are in. Most slip down t e hall trying to draw as little attention to themselves as possible. Many have tried but most have failed to pass themselves off as upper classmen. Then everyone joins together where we are one for all and all against one: FISH! 'Tm sorry I'm late to class, ma'amg somebodty told me that the 300's were on the fi th floor. I couldn't even find the fourth floor. Do the PE classes really meet at the Brown school? High school is really confusing. rockett Openingl3
