Students Reveal l Awkward MOm2I'ltS By Lamonte Love During the years one experiences many awkward moments. But the one we always remember are those that happen in high school. , l was running in the locker room in my underwear, when Rich Gonzales came down the aisle. l tried to avoid him, by stepping to the side, and l tried to hold onto a garbage can but it slid and ,l hit the urinal. Ken Warren told of his embarrassing moment. Now for some people are just a walking target for these things but for others it's just one of those things. l remember when l was on the freshman football team we were in the middle of our opening game and l'm on the sidelines playing catch with a fellow teammate when all of a fsudden l fell in a ditch that was dug up so our new scoreboard could be fixed. Can you imagine the laughs l got from the crowd? So as you can seeiembarrassment always finds people whether they like it or not.

Because I was a female, plus a junior, in school, l thought that l would have a problem getting the seniors and the guys in the band to follow me. At first they teased me a little, but they thought nothing of it. This year, as a senior, she encountered no problems. Walker led an active life, practicing with the band every day during 4th period, every Wednesday night, and after school. Also, she worked QD hours a week at Round Table Pizza in addition to her performances for PAA. The only free time l have l must make is to go to church and sleep. Walker won several awards as drum major each year she led the band. She won Mr. Marchock's Memorial Scholar- ship and took the Superior Drum Major Award at summer camp. Her future plans are to attend Point Loma College, a private school, and major in music. She plays the flute, piccalo and clarinet. Walker felt her time spent with the band was worth all of the effort. However, a couple of times l wondered what it would be like tojust sit around, watch TV, and be lazy, but I am glad that I have had the experience of being a drum major. l do not regret it.
