Making new friends was our only goal, when we first came to this new high school. Sophomore year was full of fun, it’s when we began to know everyone. Basketball and intramurals were just a game, but we still loved it just the same. Then we were Juniors, remember the prom? We have memories of which well always hold on. We started to realize that time was going fast, so we tried our best to “make it last.” Now we are Seniors and it’s kind of sad, as we think of our memories, both good and bad. We will each go our own separate ways, never forgetting our high school days. Well think of the times we sat over Kook’s, never wanting to “hit the books.” Well think of the gym where we all ate lunch, talking together with the whole crazy bunch. To the Underclassmen we have one thought: make the best of the time you got. Where our times have gone, well never know. They are in the past, now we must grow. Cheryl Girman 9 I sjfejg
