DECISIONS What should I wear? Did I do my homework? When is that report due? Did he say he ' d pick me up, or do I have to ride the cheese wagon again? What ' s for lunch? Do I have enough money to go to 7-11 or should I just raid the kitchen for some breakfast? Do 1 have practice today or tomor¬ row? Should I bother to go to that club meeting? I ' ll definitely go if that certain person is there . . . Who won that football game? Am 1 scheduled to go to work today? 1 really need my paycheck. With all these early morning deci¬ sions we made, it ' s a wonder we ever got to school at all! Our lives were crammed full of activities. Days began as late as possible because we tried to get extra sleep, which often led to tar¬ dies to school. Once we arrived at school pressures were released, the finishing touches were added to homework, gossip was exchanged, and everyone relaxed. The day rolled by until sixth period. With the final bell hallways became clogged with students rushing to practice, meet¬ ings, or buses. Once the last notes of band practice died away, the chants of cheerleaders stopped echoing through the halls, and the last locker was shut, the school day was over. But there was much more to life than school. Jobs, special events, athletic contests, concerts, movies, going out to dinner, or just hanging out occupied much of our time. And how could we survive without a tele¬ phone? It seems like 1 spend most of my time on the phone. ' ' said Claudia Gibb. And then there was homework. A neverending cycle of notes, books, and assignments. It seems that the more I do, the more I find out 1 have to do! said Ann Gillette. Finally, there was sleep- the one thing we couldn ' t get enough of. The minute the lights were turned off, brrrrrring! Suddenly an alarm clock started off the next day much too soon. Angry Jurors?
