Can’t live with it, can’t live without it. The love hate relationship fluctuated. Students counted the days until holidays, then counted the days to come back. No one could wait to get caught up. Not a chance of missing out on ... a parking place by getting to school later than ten till eight. ... Tuesday night dollar movies. ... buying new clothes to replace the shorts, mini skirts and tank tops cut off by the new dress code. ... engaging in a snowball fight after school hiding behind so- meone else’s car for protection. ... cramming down the last two bites of burrito before being caught by Mrs. Fischenich for eating lunch in a car. ... ten tanning sessions before the prom. ... saving up for a trip to Padre. 6 Buddy system ... playing cops and robbers after basketball games. ... following the funeral proces- sion to Lowrey Field to celebrate the death of Dunbar. ... running into Albertson's at 7:30 a.m. to buy three for a $1 bags of candy to decorate lockers on game days. ... trying to sneak a Coke and McDonaldland cookies back in from lunch. ... getting a job that doesn't re- quire a polyester uniform. ... grabbing the phone on the first ring after 12 p.m. on a school night. ... parking for days in a one hour zone by leaving the same ticket on the windshield. The best part of school wasn’t school, but the people and ac- tivities that surrounded it. The buddy system. by Caren McNelly STUDENT LIFE
