We needed more than paper and pens to survive high school; we also needed friends to help with an oral report for Mrs. Me- lonie Shipman ' s Earth Science class. Evette Crouch and Mi¬ chelle Poole dressed up as fish and Shelley Eveslage inter¬ viewed them. According to Shel¬ ley, The project was on the Chesapeake Bay, and we decid¬ ed that the fish should be able to speak. ' ' Friends: those are the real essentials, no matter how they are dressed.

The Velveeta Express Not Just The Basics It didn ' t matter how we got to school. Right? Wrong! Riding the bus was one thing everyone dreaded. Renea Sommers waits for a friend to make the ride home more enjoyable. You get into school and fight your way to your locker. Quickly you check to make sure you have everything for class. You venture to first period, and the day creeps on... You have all the basic school sup¬ plies that everyone should have like paper, pencils, pens, textbooks, and you hope, a clear mind. The essen¬ tials were much more than just those things you could buy at the school store. Even the school bus was neces¬ sary. (What else would serve so well as the common nuisance that all high school students loved to hate?) After a while all the little extras be¬ come such a part of our daily routine that they seem to become essential ingredients themselves. Said Mrs. Penny Lake, I just can ' t live without my cup of coffee. ' ' Sandi Lupo can ' t imagine living without her Pooh Bear, lie ' s always there to help me when I ' m down, or when 1 have to give a speech ' said the Senior Class President. Making lists was another necessity for getting teachers and students alike through the day. Said Senior, Susan Goble, i even write down silly things like Get dressed ' just so I can cross them out. ' ' For others the lists meant keeping them organized for the day. People were the most essential in¬ gredient for the day You needed peo¬ ple to pass notes to, to gossip with and about, to hand in homework to, to like, to dread, to love. To para¬ phrase a song, people who need peo¬ ple are certainly the luckiest people in the world. If, as the saying goes, we have two reasons for doing everything -- the right reason, and the real reason, then getting an education may have been the right reason for coming to school, but having all those essen¬ tials was the real reason we survived it. 2 Opening
