photograph by Angie Mays Emilie Fix Then And Row Swiftly the months have turned into weeks, and the weeks have turned into days as we approach the end of the 1986 school year. In years gone by, the closing of a school year has been met with happy thoughts of summer vacation, the chance to rest and have fun, and in a few months to rejoin friends in the adventure of a new school year. This year, however, brings the sobering realization to seniors that they cannot repeat those ex- periences of this year. They must leave these times behind them. | wonder how | will feel as | hear the latch click (closed) on my locker for the last time, knowing that with it closes a phase of my life. | wonder how many times | will recall the secrets shared at these lockers, along with laughter, tears, joys, and fears. These times | must sadly leave behind. Will | miss being in school? Will | miss the time to be able to spend with friends? Most graduates do. | can recall the fear and excitement of at- tending my first pep rally. | wonder if | would ever make it through the twelfth grade. Then came the hard work and tons of homework that came with a sophomore’s role. The raising of the money for our junior prom was an almost impossible task, but we managed; however, the displaying of our class rings for the first time was the most memorable event of our junior year. These things | will remember, but | must leave them behind. The year which | thought would never come has quickly come and is soon to be gone. | have now achieved the honor of be- ing a senior. Soon | will be stepping into the big world to be on my own. Like back in my freshman year, | will be “the new kid on the block’’ again. 2 Opening
