 Things are going at a faster rate.' This year things just seem to be going at a faster rate. You feel like you want to get out of school and on your own. Yet when the time starts passing faster and faster, you try not to think about getting out on your own. This year is just going too fast. It seems as if the older you get. the faster the time goes by. I simply do not have any spare time. I hate this feeling, it's not me. I'm hoping after I get the grades and the money to go to college next year, that it will really be worth growing up over. Lynne Bawdon The only real difference is the people. The teachers, as well as some students, seem unaware that individuals exist. Jennifer Williams Jeff Gregor High School is kind of a do-your- own thing schooling. What you put into it. if anything, is what you get out of it. Inflation has taken its toll on my hobbies—like skiing (lift tickets are up to $8 and Season Passes are $170.00.), basketball and baseball shoes. This year isn't any different from last year. There is still the same assortment of jocks, heads, soshes, freaks, creeps, smart people, beautiful people, idiots, and cliques. Cindy Schmidt Jeff Williamson

 We try to race time like a fifty-yard dash. These days when individualism is stressed. Be Yourself I, Whatever turns you on I It's even harder to be yourself when you have to pull numbers from your wallet to prove you are you I Kali Rau Where has it all gone, all those moments we had and shared and lived? We try to race time like a fifty-yard dash, the stop watch ticking rapidly and we manage to come close to it. and catch up with the pace. Joan Fritts Basically things are very easy this year. As far as school goes, things are very similar. But of course the people are different along with the teachers. One thing is for sure that every year something changes, it might be the same thing every year, but something changes. Jeff Hargens I was looking forward to going to Sunset because it was a change in atmosphere, life style, and the time that I got up in the morning! At first. Sunset was something big. The same, maybe a little more grown up. The one thing that I like about Sunset is going to school earlier in the morning and coming home earlier in the afternoon. This leaves more time in the day to do what you want. John Thayer For once in my life I feel capable of making decisions that will affect my future and not really caring whether or not others feel that it is the right thing to do. I am gradually becoming aware that I enjoy myself. I like what I'm doing and I'm prepared for the future. I guess by saying that I'm prepared, I mean that I am conscious of what may or may not happen and my life will not come crashing down around my ears because of it. Karen Wallace
