Prince Charming waits eagerly for a princess The evening of the Princes dance had arrived and Cinderella had nothing but rags to wear. She want- ed to make a good impres- sion, so she tiptoed into her sister's bedroom and took her favorite blue sweater and skirt ensemble. Plow, she exclaimed, l'm ready to go to the dance! Although Cinderella was not a member of our stu- dent body, she was a part of the dating scene. Some stu- dents shared her concern about making a good im- pression on their princes, but others saw things differ- ently. As Theresa Waldron stated, Dating is better if you're going out with some- one for a long time because you become friends with the person and develop a trusting relationship. lt's also easier to eat as much as you want or wear sweat- pants in front of him. But how does one meet such an individual? Raeann Agnellino explained, When you go out with your friends, you have a chance to meet new people and have a lot of fun. Michele Giano's definition of an ideal date was: Hhe picks me up and we go to a nice expensive restaurant and a movie. That's classy and fun at the same time. For Theresa lwaldroni the per- fect date is simply not pay- ing for anything. Lett: Notre Dame hockey games serve as a popular meeting place. Mary Grace Santagata and boy- friend Mike Gilhooly enjoy the game together. 2539823 77 FMF DatingfSeniors

With this in mind, one future drive, Maureen Troy, expressed her opinion: 'lPeople who drive should be on the look-out be- cause there are certain drivers who abuse road laws. Another view was expressed by Chrissy Savastano, who believed that how one drove depended on one's car. She said, There are some people who fool around and do not take driving a car se- riously. lt can get worse when there are more people in the car.f' These individuals who fooled around were the drivers who cut people off, rode bumpers and sped frantically through the break-dovm lane when there was a traffic jam. Their destinations were irrelevant: it was getting there quickly that thrilled them. To them, driving 55 miles per hour was a suggestion, not the law. These drivers flew through stop signs and red lights, assuming that it was the other driver's responsibility to stop. Elena Pandaru decided that, Today people must drive defen- sively in order to be safe. There- fore, you must take the neces- sary precautions, such as wear- ing your seat belt. Cheryl Wajdowicz, who was involved in a Hfender-bender type of acci- dent in October of 1986, com- mented, l'l believe everyone ' X k X should wear their seat belts be- cause ifl did not have mine on, l would have been seriously in- jured. The other driver in the accident was not wearing hers, and was slightly hurt as a result. Was there a certain group of people who were to blame for misusing these laws or was it just certain individuals? Did teenagers who cause the most accidents or did the elderly or perhaps the middle-aged? That question was a difficult one to answer because some accidents were never reported since the drivers involved settled out of court, while some others were classic hit-and-run accidents. Ultimately, the reason behind an accident did not really matter. lt was important to know that de- fensive driving helped prevent such accidents and near-misses. One needed to expect the unex- pected. WN . .Q E. 5 M...-W X d1iiN..,. Y X.
