College? Marriage? Work? Armed Forces? Family? Melissa Salazar Gary Wilson Schaadt Erik E. Stuckey pVs a senior, it feels like the entire year is spent making choices. Some seniors need to choose the college that is best suited for them. Others plan to work after graduation or get married. A senior also needs to accept more responsibil- ity than ever before. With term papers, college applications, announcements, and other dead- lines to meet, the pressure is on. The senior class held a fund raiser in which they sold candy, magna pockets, stationery, and posters. The money went towards the class trip in April. They also participated in an intra-mural door decorating contest at Christmas time and won. The class trip was to Toronto, Canada, and last- ed for three fun-filled days. Some of the sights we enjoyed were the CN Tower, Casa Loma, and the Museum of Science and Industry. Senior exchange students had to choose to leave home for a year out of their lives. As One Nakama said, The reason we wanted to come here was to learn the language and learn more about American people and their culture. We also wanted to make new foreign friends. We came here because we wanted to tell you Americans about our own coun- try ' s culture, language, and people. So far we ' ve succeeded in learning about the USA, but we hope there ' s more to come. Just think, after May 29 we ' ll be on our own without parents, teachers, or guidance counselors pushing us to get things done. The thought of graduation is scary, but pro- gress can ' t be stopped. We feel closer, and the ties between us as classmates grow stronger as graduation draws nearer. Friends will have gone but not be forgotten.

SE Y OK PROPHECY It is the year 2008. Twenty years ago today the class of 1988 graduated from high school. We planned to meet at the Westbury Hotel in Toronto where we had stayed on our Senior class trip. As we walk into the lobby, we hear children s voices. There sat Lori Ainsworth with her husband and four children. She told us that she was still cleaning schools, but now had her four kids helping her. After talking with Lori, we see Greg Lunsford, Erik Stuckey, and Jon Rollins on the way to the elevator. Erik was talking about his bowling alley he had opened and that he was going to bowl professional leagues. Qreg was telling us how his band. The Spasmatics, had Just finished touring Europe. As for Jon, he was a big surprise, tie finally settled down after ten years of a wild life and started one of the biggest pig farms in Ohio. When we came out of the elevator we ran into Kent Linn and Jon Lloyd. We were so amazed to see that Jon had a white collar on. He informed us that he did open a morgue, but unfortunately he couldn ' t handle the pressure so he became a priest Kent told us that he opened a pizza joint but lost money and had to shut it down for awhile. As we walked into Angela ' s room, there sat Mira Backstrom, Orie nakama, and Pam Balliet Pam was giving Mira and Oriea new look. She said that ' s what she gives everyone who comes into her beauty shop. Orie told us that she went back to Japan and became an English teacher, even though she couldn ' t speak it very well in the U.S. Mira, being the wild thing that she is, returned to Finland and finished school, and then started Backstrom ' s Brewery. As we headed down to Kara ' s room, we ran into Tammy Overmyer and Sheila Chilcote. Tammy was showing Sheila all the new fashions she had designed for Sheila ' s Broadway feature. When we opened the door to Kara ' s room, there sat Kelly Agler and Missy Salazar. Kelly said she married a cop ana opened her own daycare center in Van Wert. Missy informed us that she was the proud owner of Missy ' s Mexican Mun- chies and that the business was doing very well. All of a sudden we heard some weird noises coming from the hall. It was Scott Close, Chuck Howard, and Gary Schaadt rapping toLL Cool J. When we finally got them to stop rapping. Chuck informed us that he started a company that makes a new hair tonic. His product that he made was called Armor All for Your Hair. Scott said that all those pictures he took for the yearbook paid off because he got a job taking pictures of Playboy models, and he said he was loving every minute of it. Gary, on the other hand, didn ' t have much luck. He tried to become another Larry Bird, but unfortunately only got the manager ' s job. He says he ' s still trying to become a part of the team. As we were on our way to eat, Chris Marbaugh stumbled in the door. We thought nothing of it, because he was alwayi late for everything in high school. As for Kara and I, Kara finished school at northwestern Business College and went on to travel around the world witl the travel agency she works at Well, for me, 1 married Greg and became the owner of Sully ' s Slop. After a wild and crazy reunion, we planned to meet at the Westbury Hotel in another 20 years. by Angela and Kara Senior prophecy 7
