Memories include friends W hat are high school memories made of? Games? Tests? Teachers? The simple, most memorable aspect of high school life is friends. Our students, naturally, did things in groups, on teams, and in classes. We were a friendly group. Whether it was a comrade, a chum, a beat friend, or that special someone, we shared our good and bad times. Our friends performed a variety of functions; laughing and joking, helping each other study, consoling in times of trouble, partying together, and filling us in on the surprise quiz next period. Yes, we put our friends through many crises. Remember “Twin Day,” when your friend was the one who wanted you to appear as ducks? Or, how about the daily borrowing of lunch money? But, our friends held out through the stressful times. After all, what is a friend? Senior Richard Johnson said, “A crazy partner who can take a joke.” Senior Kay Back puts it eloquently, “A friendship is like a taco. The more you put into it, the more you take out.” Friendship is a trust, a kind of unwritten, unspoken contract. This makes it easier to repair when breached. All around the school, we saw the groups, the teams, the couples, and noticed the camaraderie of our classmates. SENIOR DAVID MONTGOMERY and senior Tina Cox were one of the many couples seen “close together” at school during the year. SENIOR SHELBY “SHOES” SAMUELS and senior Derric Briggs were caught staring into each other’s eyes. SENIORS DENISE GRIFFIN and Sonya Williams flash one of those friendly “Warrior smiles” as they walk to class. SENIOR JOE TALIAFERRO, junior Steve Gyant and sophomore Tony Palmer spend some quiet time in the library before practice.
