Seconds of precious time For some reason, whenever anyone talks about the good ' ole days they always remem- ber the years when they were in high school. High school is the last time in most peoples life when they can be whatever they choose or do whatever they want to. If they want to play foot- ball, they play football. If they want to sing, they join a choir. High school is four years of memories, pre- cious time and moments that you ' ll always re- member. High school is sitting under a blanket with that special someone at the football game, drinking hot chocolate and screaming until you ' re hoarse. High school is going to McDonalds after the game and sharing a small order of fries so the manager doesn ' t kick you out for loitering. High school is dressing up like an idiot during homecoming week and feeling normal. High School is suiting up for the big game and winning by a million points, or losing the big game and realizing that winning isn ' t ever- ything. High school is getting your first car and screaming at the first jerk to dent it . . . even if it ' s yourself. High school is complaining about the food in the cafeteria and buying two lunches every day. High School is sleeping in class and convincing the teacher that you were resting your eyes. High School is words on a page . . . and words, and words, and words. High school is studying in class or watching the people who really do study in class. High School is many different things to many different people. It is a time for fun and friends, the last taste of childhood and the first step to adulthood. Long after graduation, a part of every Bruin who walked here will remain . . . always remem- bering their seconds of precious time. Tim Chard, James Clark, Rich Jennings take it easy at a basket- ball game. C. A. Pom Pons perform their parachute drill for half time high lights at the Memorial Coliseum. Nancy Burke and Sue Bonfiglio laugh at the face of defeat. Seconds of precious time — 7
