ANGELIKA ORFANOS Angelika arrived at Elmwood last September in full uniform for the first and last time. She has shown amazing imagination in her outfit creations. The green atoms in her socks turn instantly white as she puts them on . . . did you learn that in Physics class, Angelika? Often she ' ll whip out of the Common Room in those purple sweatpants, her feet a blue and yellow blur in flashy Free Spirit Bauers. She ' s always the first one ready for a Rockcliffe Depletion Run - hair flying back, a toothy grin on her face. Other pastimes include ballroom dancing ( cha cha cha! ), Greek Easter celebrations and rating our teeth and haircuts. Well, you ' ve sure made our day many a time, and you ' re going to Angelikalize many more! Seriously, we ' re fortunate to have known you this past year. Take care and best of luck in whatever you do! LISE PARADIS Lise is the first French Canadian that we know who has learned to live with it and laugh about it! She has a renowned ability to change the lyrics of hymns and give them her own special meanings. Lise enjoys running and has taken part in many road races, including the National Capital Marathon. She will be remembered for her horse laugh . . . borrowing . . . bus tickets . . . hitting her friends for no reason . . . those dates . . . Grade Twelve Formal . . . and last but certainly not least, her misconceived vanity. Lise ' s love of children has been aptly shown in her various activities, which include being a camp counsellor, a patient teacher of 3 4 gym, and Junior School Prefect. With this experience, it is not surprising that she plans to work with children in Nursing or the Physical Education profession. Well, Froggy, whatever you do, keep hopping along! 20

AMANDA LOVATT SDidey-legs Lovatt has enthralled everyone with her continuous eating since Grade Nine, rising to pre-eminence in Grade Thirteen as Senior Prefect. Another one of those Sciency people. Amanda tries to dazzle us with her knowledge of music as well; these Senior Prefects - what else can you expect? On the whole, Amanda is a stable character, saving her rowdy outbursts for the weekends Not just another dumb blonde who only likes to party. Amanda enjoys working hard(?!) on her studies, teaching piano chez her after school, taking candid shots of others, and tipping her sailboat in Britannia. Mandy enjoys rural life as well. She worked on a farm during the past summer, and captured everyone ' s attention with heavenly smells when she returned. Amanda hopes to go to Waterloo next year, to study Math. (We tried to enlighten her, but she wouldn ' t listen). As Waterloo is on the co-op system, Ottawans will be seeing her at odd times of the year, when she comes home for a work break. Good luck, Amanda, you poor, misguided Math freak! ROSALINE NGAN When you find yourself in hot water, take a bath. This Math whiz came to us in Grade Twelve from a foreign country. It was an easy transition for Ros, coming from another girls ' school; but she also travels extensively, and has experienced much. Ros enjoys it here because it is a wild and crazy place, and to her, wild means savage and crazy means insane. She leaves to you a little thought: When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Best of luck in your further studies, Ros! 19

EVA RASTER Otherwise known as Eva Rooster, she calls herself a Gift from God. Eva waltzed Into Grade Thirteen in October, late as she usually is for her classes. She has many hidden talents, which did not come to light until the second and third terms: her pigouts at Ashbury tuck shop, and her suntannmg from the Grade Thirteen balcony to the park. She complained about the lack of night life in Ottawa and decided to do something about it and find her own Mm- sky ' s in hope of finding some fun! Eva is not the quiet girl that she seems to be; you have to watch out for her ' cause she ' s a wild blonde from Chicago. She hopes to go to Carleton next year (we all wonder why, eh Jim?) and dazzle everyone with her language abilities. Who knows, she might even become a translator for the U.N.! Watch out Ottawa, ' cause Eva ' s staying in town. Don ' t be good - you can ' t have any fun that way! Ml ANDREA ROBERTSON This capricious young Celt is certainly not your average dour Highland Scot. If at any time a frown does cross her face, it is quickly replaced by her infectious smile and irrepressible laughter. She has an inane sense of humour and often gives the impression that she is light-headed. She is also wonderful to have around because she ' s filled with incredible energy and enthusiasm, which inspires everyone. Whether she is dancing madly at parties, singing boisterously at parties, or simply running madly AFTER parties, Andrea is as outgoing as it is possible to be. Mind you, she is equally enthusiastic about Art and Art History classes, although she hates to be classified as Artsy. Her love of art is only surpassed by her love of nature, Jeffie ' s little doggies, and generally having a wild time. She often is very theatrical, and therefore should make a great actress. Doubtless, her unmistakable voice will carry to the back of many theatres in the future. Who knows, maybe there will be that ominous blue-black Beaumont waiting for her at the backstage door after every stunning performance. Dance, then, wherever and with me; we are the lords of the dance says me. From one who flings you many kisses, Hobdarino. 21
