 That’s the one thing I’m ready to get away from ... the same thing day after day. I go into each class during the day and do the same boring things. We even discuss ‘he same things in our conversa- tions. When the sixth period bell rings, the individuality of our lifestyles becomes obvious. Depending on the season, students involved in different sports stay after school for their practices. Others work to make extra money for those little expenses that cut down their money supply. With the opening of San Jacinto Mall, more ,ob openings became available for stu- dents. San Jacinto Mall also touched our lives in terms of shopping and the availabil- ity of items which had previ- ously been difficult for us to obtain in our town. Instead of traveling into Houston, we now found it convenient to stop by the Mall on our way home. There are occasional dis- turbances in our everyday patterns that keep us busy trying to remember when and where we are supposed to be. Causing our sleeping hours to be cut short, club meetings often met before school. Contests during the week for U.I.L. competition entail makeup work. Involvement in sports such as baseball or track made us sometimes need to leave school early for our games. Struggling occasionally with these interruptions, we go through the routine paces daily. ... You sink into bed and take a deep breath. It's been long and exhausing, but you pulled it off. You turned your notecards in on time, passed that trig test, and straightened out the misunderstanding with Susie. Sweet dreams ... tomorrow’s yet another day.
