Dario Cohenca DOB: 11 January 1971 Asuncion, Paraguay Enrique Ceron DOB: 28 January, 1971 Madrid, Spain Ulrik Christensen DOB: 8 January, 1971 Vejle, Denmark Kazumi Kuwabara DOB: 6 July, 1970 Tokyo, Japan Once upon a time there was a charming prince named Dario Cohenca from the kingdom of Asuncion in Paraguay. The prince came to America in search of a beautiful blonde to make his lovely bride. As he searched, he took time to enjoy the many leisures found in America. The Armstrong kingdom had many activities that he participated in. He went to the Grand Ball (Prom) and made snow angels for the first time (there was no snow back in Paraguay). He also had to battle with fierce soccer teams and fire-breathing li- brarians. Unfortunately, he left America and Armstrong with a broken heart. Paula McGrath DOB: 20 November, 1971 Belfast, Northern Ireland ■ j Ilia Papatheodorou DOB: 29 March, 1971 Stuttgart, West Germany Kazumi Kuwabara brought some exotic flavor to Armstrong. She also brought her Japanese over-achieving abilities: her out- standing performances on the violin and piano, her demonstration of the traditional tea ceremony and of how to put on Grand- ma ' s kimono, and her artwork could be admired by everyone for free. Kazumi ' s funny speeches were accompanied by broad, expressive gestures. Whatever she does, she puts a lot of energy into it. Kazu- mi ' s coach was proud to award her with the trophy for the Most Improved Swim Team Member. And two European girls on the slalom ski team, who thought THEY were the best because THEY had already been skiing in Switzerland and were more experienced, both froze in amazement as Kazumi whipped by in her kimono. 51

S Kasper Larsen DOB: 8 February, 1972 Holsterbro, Denmark Kai Magdeburg DOB: 7 December, 1970 Berlin, West Germany There once was a little girl named Bernadette Bruce who in January of 1988 left the sunny shores of Australia to discover America. She left her beloved kangaroo be- hind which she rode to school on every day and said good-bye to Crocodile Dundee whom she knew personally. She faced many kinds of hardships (out of all of the foreign exchange students, she had the greatest extent of difficulties with the language) but she made the best of it all. She recovered unbelievably well from the American History tests by sleeping in the Social Studies Resource room. She bit into the health- iest sandwiches that you could find in the lunch room. She even succeeded in her pottery class where she finished one out of the 9,000 most awesome pots that she began with. She also survived brave deeds such as Minnesota ' s cold and snow and had the greatest fun in dedicating herself to cross-country skiing. Berme ' s most obvious characteristics is that she speaks her mind to every bus driver, teacher, librarian, and peers. So, if you asked her what she thinks about Americans, you ' d probably hear that you ' re the warmest and most inviting peoples. Kasper, the friendly guy, the friendliest guy you know! Through librarians might look at him with fright, the girls all love him so! Kasper, the friendly guy, he couldn ' t be bad or mean! He ' ll talk and play, never study all day, the friendliest guy you ' ve seen! He always says hello, and he ' s really glad to meet ' cha! Wherever he may go, he ' s kind to almost every teacher! The guys don ' t understand why the girls all love him the most, but we all know that he loves Armstrong so, Kasper the friendly guy!
