 “My sister, Sherri, just broke up with Glenn and all she does is ball!” — Brent Hills “When I was a senior in high school I worried the entire year about asking out a cheerleader that I had a big crush on. 1 never did ask her out, but a few years later I found out she had a crush on me too.” — Mr. Steve Flshbum “I’ve never done much dating so I’m not sure what it’s like.” — Darren Neavllle I think it’s great that all these new couples are getting together because it’s neat to have someone to share your thoughts and feelings with.” — Bridgette McVay “I think that dating is stupid. All that girls ever do is complain and spend your money.” — Steve Head “Would you go to Homecoming with me.” — A guy’s question last fall “1 can’t. I already have a date.” — The girl’s response.

For GFHS Daters, It Takes Two to Tango It was a Friday night and she was sitting on the end of her bed crying. Tomorrow night was her Senior Prom and no one had asked her to go. Like many young ladies at GFHS, this young lady was experiencing one of the hardest parts about high school dating: the pain of rejection. There are many perils and pinnacles to dating at GFHS. This young lady was experiencing one of the perils. She was a victim of the first step, asking someone out, which is the biggest peril here. After John Mayer posed THE ques- tion to Laura Tropper, they quickly learned after their first date that there are also many pinnacles like having so- meone to spend time with on otherwise lonely Saturday nights. After two weeks of sweaty palms and a scratchy throat, Travis Wait asked Melinda Heindrick if she would accom- pany him to the Homecoming Dance. She said yes and ever since they have been intrigued yet at ease with each other’s company. But Travis says, “I want it to last. I don’t know, until whenever, forever!” Kim Haverfield, who has been dating Mark Grable for two years, says the best part about having a steady boyfriend is, “You grow closer to the guy you’re going out with. The more I learn about Mark, the more I love him.” A lob of students here have not yet experienced either the perils or pin- nacles of dating someone seriously. Says one freshman guy, “Who wants to go out with someone when your Mom has to drive you everywhere. Next year I’ll be 16 so I can drive myself and then, watch out women of Granite Falls.” Then again, some people don’t want to date at all. “I think that dating is stupid,” says Steve Head. “All that girls ever do is complain and spend your money.” But no matter how you feel about dating, whether you love it or hate it, it will continue with all of its perils and pinnacles for years to come. i 10 Above: Mike Irons escorts Cindy Chase down the sidewalk as Dana Grant accompanies them.
