al :30 A.M. — 8:30 A.M. The strong sound of a fog- horn drones into the sweet dreams of a colonial. He gets up, turning off the alarm, and a shower quickly brings him to full consciousness. After a breakfast before sunrise, he gets into a fully equipped bus. At least, it’s got an AM FM radio and heat. He arrives at school anywhere from one to two hours later and goes to first period. 8:31A.M. — 9:45 A.M. The school day begins with English, a good course to start the day. After five minutes of listening to her teacher talk about Canterbury Tales, the typical colonialette is con- centrating more on Friday night than a knight in the Crusades. The boy sitting across from her fakes an in- terested expression as he thumbs through the score he was supposed to have memo- rized for band by 5th period. Announcements welcome the rest of the day and send them both to 2nd period. 9:46 A.M. A.M. The rowdy junior, in his second year of Humanities, appears to study the Nullifi- cation Act, but he’s really de- bating whether to brave the lunch lines in the cafeteria or spend the half hour in the Honeywell lab completing his program. He welcomes his Physics lab as a break from the hour and a half of Hu- manities. 11:01 A.M.-12:15 P.M. One of the best parts of the day is lunch. If nothing else, the additional sugar intake keeps most people awake for the rest of the day. The sight 11:00 IME of our lives of friends who have also sur- vived thus far encourages the wary student to be optimistic about the math test she has to take in less than an hour. She studies, and other people in the cafeteria catch up on for- gotten homework and missed sleep. IZ01 62 ESV P.M. Perhaps the most impor- tant and most immediately useful skill a TJ student can learn in technology is typing. The ac- 1:30 celerat- mE ed While the cat’s away, the mice will play. Arnie Brown and Se Marc Garcia did just that he when they went to their geom- takes etry class one day and found a comes sleeping substitute instead of in Mr. Slivosky. The two fresh- man read Dr. Suess’s Green hand y Eggs and Ham. when biology research papers are due later in the semester (Luckily, for those students who don’t get A’s in typing, there is still White-Out.). Oc- casionally, he gets a break from the monotonous clicking Zi of the typewriters by going to 2 | the Biotech lab where there is = no homework, no tests (which means no grades!) and the lab experience is what really counts. 1:31 P.M. — 2:45 P.M. A colonialette becomes “Mademoiselle Colonialette”’ as she steps into Mme Waller’s room, met with the delicious smell of crepes. The cultural experience gives her a break from the daily conju- gation of verbs and the energy to make it through the rest of the day.
