Lasting Memories Yearbooks are here! After wait- ing over the summer, sophomores finally had the chance to see their freshman year in print in early September. Sophomores who went on to NMHS came back to get their books as well as some other stu- dents who were going to different schools. I had mixed emotions when I saw my old friends from North, Eric Layer said. It was good, and it was also not so good. The party was a time for remembering when and gave students an opportunity to write their feelings to each other. It really made me realize how much I missed seeing some of my old friends at school, Tuyen Iran said. (Samia Siddiqui) iWemories are relived as Betty Marshall signs a friend ' s yearbook. The signing par- ty was held in September in the cafeteria.

SOPHOMORES I used to feel like school didn ' t mean much, but since I ' ve been playing foot- ball, my attitude towards responsibility has changed a great deal. — Jason Jones I feel like we are more unified in our school than we were when I was a freshman. Since there isn ' t so much conflict between NMHS, we can take more pride in PHS! — Robin Johnson Since there is no one above me, I can ' t say that I feel elevated in rank, but we are the upperclassmen, so my attitude toward leadership has grown stronger. — Miriam Chapman Christy Abercrombie Amanda Albrecht Fahmida Ali Khitam Allan J.

Look at me! The girl or guy of your dreams sits just inches away from you in English class. How do you get him or her to notice that you ' re alive? How do you begin talking to them? How do you break the ice? Some students had some pretty good ideas. Sophomore Cathy Laughlin said, If I really like a guy and want to get his attention, I just walk up and kiss him! For some, this may seem a little too aggressive and might prefer a more subtle approach, like casual eye contact (you know the kind where your eyes look like they may pop out of your head at any minute). However, with women becom- ing more and more aggressive, they might just come right out and say, Will you go out with me? Everybody ' s different, so it ' s sometimes hard to break the ice. What works best for me is just to start off with small talk and hope for the best, freshman Stace Owents said. Others prefer a more romantic approach, like giving a girl a rose. Whatever way the ice is broken, it never hurts to try. The bottom line is don ' t let your dreamboat get away. Pull em ashore before they sink! (mish Ashieyi II » ■ ' V- gy- ' ■
