A True Friendship The school day begins and ends. Day to day is a struggle with exams, homework and classes. But there is something that keeps a person going. There is more to school than just the everyday routine. South is filled with a variety of people and personalities. Here anyone can find a friend. Without a joke, a smile, and a bit of laughter shared with a friend, it would be difficult to make it through the long days. But a friend isn't all fun and games. A friend is someone whom you can count on when you really need him there, when things don't go just right. Hours on the phone, endless evenings spent together, and countless secrets are all involved in a friendship. Whether it be one close relationship or many special friends, it is here that one finds smiles andw tears, joy, and pain. Imagine school without a giggle among friends, a note passing around the classroom, or someone holding hands. School just wouldn't be the same without all of these. At McDonalds, Pizza Hut, the movies, Links, or Electric Circus, one seldom sees an Archer alone. Traveling in groups is always more fun, as can be seen on a weekend night. I almost live with my friends, said Libby Leal, junior, There's no one else I'd rather spend my time with, but I guess that's why they're my friends! Her thoughts may be the same as many other Archers'. So look beside you. There you will find a friend. Though high school can't last forever, there is one thing that can. A true friendship never ends, no mat- ter how long the years become. 10
