People alweys like to have pictures of friends when they go away, and Hanna is no excep¬ tion. Her Finnish friends left to right Susanne Riekkola, Hanna, Mirja Oksaven and Kirsi Vuorinen. Taata Tullaan Elama Adding to the variety of faces and places represented at Osbourn is Hanna Kaisa-Kakko, one of the five foreign exchange students with us this year. Hanna ' s reason for coming to this country was mainly curiosity, to dis¬ cover new ways and ideas. Another reason was a chance to practice the English language. Also, she com¬ mented on the advantage she has over her peers who stay where they are, I will see more in one year than they will see in five years. They grow in one town, and I grow in the whole world. While in Manassas, Hanna stayed with the Spurlins, and their children, Jennifer Cl 63, and Kevin. She and Jennifer became great friends dur¬ ing her visit here. Hanna ' s arrange¬ ments were made by the Youth For Understanding program. Hanna, from Finland, pointed out some of the differences between her peers here and there. Teens in America work much more than they do where I live; it ' s almost impossible for a person under eighteen to get a job in Finland. Teenagers in Finland walk and ride their bikes much more than American teens because you have to be eighteen to get a drivers license. ” She has a positive general im¬ pression of this country. I enjoy liv¬ ing in the U.S.A. I like to visit D.C., and especially Georgetown. After graduating from O.H.S., Hanna will return to Finland where she will receive two more years of public education. Her future plans are uncertain, ex¬ cept that she would like to return to the U.S. to study. Sarah, Hanna, and Matte learn English Litera¬ ture from their instructor, Mrs. Vogel. Seniors IS

Ona of tha classes Ricardo took was Speech Drama, taught by Ms, Kay Thompson. South of the Bonder Thanks to a new program, Youth Exchange Service, Ricardo Carmo¬ na has had the opportunity of attending an American school. The exchange student from Monterey, Mexico is a seventeen-year-old se¬ nior at Osbourn High School. The reasons he came to the U.S. were mainly to learn English and also to prepare for college, which he may attend somewhere in this country. Ricardo said that everything here is more expensive than in his coun¬ try, except that here education is free. He lived with the Faradays and their son John while he was here. John and Ricardo did alot together. For Ricardo it is a new learning ex¬ perience, involving cultural, agricul¬ tural, economical, and social educa¬ tion. Mr. Geddas and Ricardo review some notes in science class. 20 Seniors
