lined dreams. Romantic. Prom brought out the night lever in all of us as couples dance in a world of starry skies and silver- Spirited. J.V. cheerleaders worked on a hot week in August at Longwood to learn cheers and chants. We Experienced It All - Apathy, Tension, Excitement And Love. motion. How many times have SES we let our feelings control the things we do? At Pep As- semblies, the cheerleaders succeed in getting everyone up on his feet to “‘get a little rowdy’ and the macho footbail team even got together for a “‘Jamachia Shaka.” You felt excitement as the final seconds closed in while you were leading in a game, and you felt a calm satisfaction three hours later when you told your mom and dad how you did. But there was not always joy and spirit to be excited about. Sometimes the monotony of the day dragged on so much that you soon became. too apathetic to rabble yourself for some emotion. Then again, there were many sad feelings of frustration and defeat. The Homecoming Game was a stunning blow to our moral. It brought out anger and sadness in all of us. There was also that pain that hit the heart when you argued with someone you cared for or let harsh words come between you and your friends. The sad tensions and anxieties existed, but they were readily pushed aside when some reason, came along to make you happy. The saying goes, “‘If you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours.”’ This applied greatly at school, for when you saw one friend smile, you had to smile back. Just knowing that somebody was caring for you was enough. Smiling and crying. They seemed to go together. It hurt a lot when the football team didn’t make it to the regional play- offs they worked so hard for. But this hurt and most others soon went away. It never really stopped hurting when someone close passed away, and you realized, nothing hurts like losing a friend. Apathy. Blue Monday gets everyone down in the dumps. Matilda Davis and Brenda Tinsley wait out class time with littlke hope for any upcoming interruptions. Theme 7
