Suwiyqal 0, t e ITTSST First and second periods usually dragged along monotonously while the upper and lower lids of your eyes slowly parted to let in visions of English, math or social studies. On rare ocassions the early morning classes were interupted by the low-toned squeal of the fire alarm. The fire alarm helped us cheat on tests, said David Leavitt. We would huddle up outside and ask each other what we had on a certain question and compare answers. Because of the late hour at which the upper grades ate, a I5-minute break was installed between second and third periods. It was designed to give you a chance to eat and relax. You definitely ate but had little relaxation. There was always an impossible line at the four Coke machines, and it was survival of the fittest when it came to getting a candy bar or chips from the Junior Student Council's candy cart. lt was like human bumper cars, commented senior Lorrie Tabor. The short people always got shoved to the back. Third and fourth periods brought about churning stomachs as you anxiously waited for the lunch bell. You felt like Pavlov's dogs as you listened to the bells calling the middle school to and from lunch. Finally the lunch bell rang and there was a mad rush to the Munch Box line. If you lacked the foresight to order a week ahead for lunch you were reduced to a savage beast as you fought for a choice position in the extra line. The actual eating of lunch was made less desirable by the atmospheric conditions of the gym as you struggled with the ever increasing rat population for the choice morsals of food. One senior guy said, lfl compared the gym to my bathroom at home, as a place to eat, l think I would choose my bathroom. You never quite got to finish your balony-sandwich and Fritos for the make- shift prison guards who would herd you out of the gym so the selected few could play janitor and clean up the potpouri of smelly garbage. l2l Student Life Kid napped.
