 We're loud and immature, but we also get along pretty well. This was Angie Hackwell’s response when asked what makes the seventh grade different from other grades at EHS. Travis Schwen- neker’s response was, “We talk a lot.” We’re very enthusiastic about different things,” was Angela Liddick’s answer. Who’s your favorite teacher? The major- ity of the seventh graders enjoyed Mr. Tjaden, because, in Mart Jorgensen's words, “He is down to earth.” Some of the other reasons Mr. Tjaden was liked were, He is fun to be around,” and “He makes it fun to learn,” according to Ste- ven Sonntag and Sara Vaughan.

Most said that pizza was their favorite simply because they liked it. Hamburgers came in as a not-so-close second place. The seventh graders had a wide variety of favorite musical groups. They ranged all the way from Alabama to Wham. Their best-liked singers were just as varied, all the way from Hank Williams Jr. to Madonna, but Bruce Springsteen was chosen more than anyone else. The favorite television show was The Cosby Show. It was liked for the most part, “Because it is funny” (Kevin Soren- son). “Miami Vice” was also liked for several reasons. Jenny Luft liked it because, “It is interesting and it has Don John- son.” Brian Schwab liked the show because, “It has a lot of action to it.” “Back to the Future” seemed to be the favorite movie of the seventh graders with “Rambo.” “Return of the Living Dead” and “Red Dawn” coming in second. All in all the seventh graders seemed to enjoy their first year of junior high. Terry's Karber Shop, Sidra
