REGISTRATION - Sophomores Lyn Casada, Lani Bustamanti, Michelle Donahue, Julie Bendele, and Suzanne Davis talk about summer vacations and the classes they will be taking, while waiting to register. Registration is troublesomeg new system disliked by most The old saying, You can't please all of the people all of the time, cer- tainly applied to registration. Aside from the fact that most students were depressed by the thought of coming to school before the summer was over, there always seemed to be someone dissatisfied with his schedule. I never have liked registering, said Sherri Balzen, junior. Even though I get to talk with friends that I haven't seen all summer, when they started with the end of the alphabet, it wasn't fair. All of the good classes and teachers were filled up and there was not a good selection. It was just a big hassle. It was a mistake for them to start at the back of the alphabet because I didn't get to register first, said Amy I2 Registration Blalock, senior. It was a big mixup. You couIdn't get any of the teachers you wanted. All the classes you wanted were filled up. It's generally like we're a bunch of cattle being herded around. It was awful to have to go to school anyway. Some people didn't even make it to school. Registration was really strange this year because I slept too late and missed it, said Katrina Thornton, sophomore. I had to register with all the new people. After all that, I ended up with two first periods. It was a real mess. I didn't like registration because I had to go last, said Senior Larry Commons. i'Some of the classes were filled up, and I didn't get all the teachers I wanted.
