Will the laughter shared in our high school years ever be equaled later? These are the years when laughter about friends, teachers, peers, and school lunches can occur at any time, out of the blue. Listening to friends share a sickening joke or watch an alien walk down the hall with a striped shirt and plaid pants is enough to make anyone laugh. Now is the time that laughter runs free. lt is the time when everything is going great and life is something to be conquered. Life itself is something to be giggled at behind shielded mouths which seem to produce the funniest antidotesg mouths which are seen with smiles that lead up to twinkling eyes. The soiled pun that Bob or Lisa or John told will set an already strange teenager off into hysterics. Even the corny jokes of teachers receive guffaws of welcome in the classroom. Laughter enables us to all that we want, even if it does involve leap frog down the hall or taking our shoes off and sliding across the floor until we go tumbling hysterically into the one teacher who puts fear into your heart. You can be sure that this teacher will be laughing while retelling it to the rest of our beloved teachers. After all, what causes more laughter than teenagers? Laughter caused by insecur- ities as enormous as having hair that won't curl or having the boy you've adored for three months finally talk to you on the day that a huge zit appeared on your chin. We need laughter. Hovv else could we get through life in a school that has a green hall, which isn't really green, if we didn't practice and enjoy the art of laughter?

Walking down the halls of Frontier, you en- counter several unusual and unique groups - groups of friends. Friends are the people who look identical from head to toe. They have the same short hairstyles, the same designer sweat- ers and jeans, and the newest craze in shoes, jewelry, and fashion earrings. As you walk be- hind them, you notice they talk with the same accent, walk with the same sway, and think on the same level. Friends are the people walking down the hall quizzing each other or sitting in homeroom tackling the impossible homework assignment. Friends are the ones listening to each others problems and lending a shoulder to cry on. They are the only ones who can make the tough times easier and are constantly offering advice. They know what is the best for you. Friends are the people who never let you forget the time you slipped in the cafeteria, knocked over someone carrying their lunch, and sent food in every direction while the person you are madly in love with falls off his chair laughing. Friends are the people at your games cheering the loudest even when there seems to be no hope. Friends share the same emotions, they laugh together about the good times and cry together about the bad times. Friends are the people who will always be there, through thick and thin, making you feel important, and creat- ing memories that will last forever. LINDA HAINES
