I Slippery When Wet Be careful. Don’t slip. The slipperiest course of anyone’s life is their high school years. Everyone here at DHS slides into their own lit- tle pattern of doing things. For some it may be a good pattern, but for others it may be a bad pattern. How many of you can truthfully say school is an easy course? If anyone out there can, they are a better person than most of us. We picked our theme from the title of a very popular tape by Bon Jovi. This tape conveys a general feeling that is current- ly among the students. It is hoped that this theme will draw you into our book and help you feel a part of it. For many of us, school is a cautious trip. Everyone wants to take the right path whether it be in our studies, with our friends, or just doing what we want. But the main thing is doing good in school, for in- stance, keeping our grades up and always trying to do better than the time before. This may come easy to some but may prove to be a real chal- lenge to others. The most important pattern for many of us is to deal with peer pressure - doing what is right for us not what others think we should do. Friends can make you do a lot of things you don’t want to do and you would never have done before. If you do happen to slip the wrong way, it may be hard to get going on the right path again. Also, for a chosen few, they may have a hard time trying to decide what to do after graduation. Some may want to go to college, get a job, get married, or go into the armed services. Just deciding on one of these can be a slippery procedure. It is hoped, however, that no matter what path you are taking, you are going in the right direction. If for some reason you’re headed the wrong way, you can soon turn back to the right way. Just be careful not to slip into a slump as sometimes we often do. -Teresa Mosher BRAIN IN ACTION.
