BSU MECHA Goals Reached SU gives me a chance to be- come involved with school activities, stated Penny Shaw. In giving Shaw and other members this opportunity, the club ' s purpose was fulfilled. Advi- sor William Anderson commented, Our main purpose was to acquaint ourselves with all aspects of the school and community. Personal gains found through being in BSU contributed to a rise in atten- dance at meetings. BSU has helped me become more independent, ex- claimed Leyha Callender. This inde- pendence was gained through respon- sibilities given to each member in ac- tivities such as flower and candy sale. Sales, Sales, Sales! MECHA found bake sales and car washes to be a quick, profitable way to make money. The work they put into conducting these fundraisers was rewarded with trips to Disneyland and the beach. I don ' t always like having fundraisers, but I know their results will be benefi- cial, stated Gloria Avila. MECHA ' s main purpose was to help students involve themselves in school activities. President Glorine Jimenez commented, If we can help each member improve in some aspect of school life our purpose will be achieved. ' Whether fulfilling their pur- pose or just enjoying themselves, mem- bers actively participated in the events MECHA sponsored. ••• A president ' s job is never done.

Aurora Home Away From Home 151 C tereo blaring, motherly voice screaming . . . Outside of putting out the cat, the yearbook room had all the qualities of a second home, at least for the members of the AURORA staff. Just like a family, yearbookers always seemed to have a crisis. Pictures need- ed to be taken, copy had to be written, and deadlines had to be met. I can ' t believe the pressure, and I ' m just a floater! commented Kerry Tomlinson. However, staffers always found a way to relieve the tension. Christmas, birth- days, as well as the beginning and end of the school year were all occasions for parties. The Christmas party helped me make new friends, explained My Phuong Tran. To keep spirits up throughout the year, members decorated the back cup- boards known as THE WALL. The wall is the most wonderfully gross and disgustingly terrific place to express yourself the world has ever known, commented Pam Watts. Jokes and puns as well as funny pictures became a way for Aurora members to poke fun at each other. Joked Helen Sanematsu, It ' s a mess, but it ' s not in my house so I don ' t worry about it ... The truth of the matter was that while at school AURORA members could al- ways rely on the AURORA room and each other. Before and after school, snack and lunch, almost any time staff- ers could be found in their second home socializing, discussing headlines and layouts, or doing their homework. We ' ve never had a group be so close and stick together . . . true camara- dery, concluded Sanematsu. ••• Trying to fit copy for a division page, Co editors lenny Rinne and Helen Sanematsu utilize the computer. Editing for the AURORA, Rinne and Sanematsu did everything irom handling grouchy slaifers lo giving up their planned weekends. 1 86 organizations
