What The Future Holds Flipping through the 1988-1989 Gyre think of the fun we had. Now think of the year to come. Looking ahead some of us are excited about the future. The seniors get to head out into the real world. They are finally on their own: no more its telling them what to do and where to go. Seniors are ling to attend post high school education and are looking ard to meeting new people. Juniors are excited to be at the top of the school. The sophomores or scroats ' are excited to finally become upperclassmen. The freshmen are just happy to be anything, but at the bottom of the heap. We may not all be excited as we look ahead because the future can hold things that scare us. The seniors who have college ahead of them are nervous about the hard work. Some may even get homesick. Juniors think ahead to planning their future during senior year. Sophomores have heard the rumors of the nasty classes they have registered for and freshman remember that they are still lowerclassmen. The future holds exciting and scary times ahead, but we ' ll all make it. As we look ahead we are sad to leave the fun behind but excited for our future to begin. Filmii » shoot for.

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!

Even though some of our best memories are in high school, the best years are yet to come. There is only one way to capture our high school memories and that is with a yearbook. Maybe you won ' t realize that high school was important to yourself, but look at this book in ten, fifteen and twenty-five years from now and you 11 probably smile from ear to ear as you remember the Good Times we all had together. From here our future is uncertain. We look out this bright window and try to see where it might lead, but only as individuals may we see our goals. Success is only in the way we see ourselves as a winner, not as others see us. So much as we hate separating and going our Steve Harley Roess Features Editor
