r Pals for life Friends were a vital part of high school life They were confi- dantes. They were sounding boards. They were even problem solvers and most stu- dents found it impossi- ble to get through school without friends. While students had many friends, they had only a few close ones. ”1 have a lot of friends, but only a few close ones.’’ sophomore Cynthia Cruz said. Trust was often the ba- sis of lasting friend- ships. I only get close to people I can trust. Cruz added. While friends were as necessary as pencils and paper, they were also important away from school. I have a lot of buddies that I like to party and trip out with. We don’t neces- sarily have to see each other at school to be close. ' senior Rodney Jeffries said. While some students found school a good place for making friends others found best friends in their own homes. Friends at school don't mean that much to me because I like to be by myself and I have a brother to con- fide in. Jeffries said. Siblings often included each other in activities. My brother is my best friend because we are so close. Every time we do something, we al- ways include each oth- er. McFarland said. Although some stu- dents found life more bearable by having friends, others didn’t. I don’t think they (friends) are necessary, I don’t get to my friends because I don’t trust anybody but myself. junior Gunzalo Danger said.
