My hobbies include watching T.V. news and sports, playing sports, and bugging out with my friends. : | feel that high school gives you four years to be rowdy and to finally grow out of that adolescent stage, and into young adults, both academically and socially. I was born of the 6th day of the 8th month of 1969 in Newark, N.J.. So it would be fitting that the Leo Club is one of my activities. Other include debating, tennis playing, and being President of the Student Government Organization.

‘Marc Covington “14” KARAT; Sagittarius; 12-16-69 Loves to flirt with girls; likes football; Member of U.H.S. Chorus and Gospel Chorus; To my Mother; Thank You, because without you my life would be nothing. Never let it be said that we haven’t touched each other in a special way. For this reason a unique message is appropriate: Class; we are the same in many ways, TOO many hopes, to many dreams, and we can’t make them work so it seems. We have to act now!! Tomorrow's too late, for yesterday was a day in which we wasted. Each day is a lifetime..... We must start today in learning how to fight if we plan to win this game they call Life... .. May this message bring you peace and joy, Hoping tomorrow sends you much, much more. Darren Davis DARREN DAVIS THE TREES ARE BLOWING AND THE GRASS IS GREEN AND SOON | WILL BE ON MY OWN, | WILL BE OUT THERE IN THE WORLD ON MY OWN. BUT THERE’S ONE THING I HAVE TO REALIZE THAT YOU CAN’T WASTE TIME. YOU HAVE TO GO TO WORK. MOST OF ALL WHEN I GET OUT I’M GOING TO COL- LEGE FOR 4 YEARS. THE DAYS PASS BY, AND EACH DAY | LEARN SOMETHING NEW. I SAY TO YOU STAY IN SCHOOL AND DON’T BE A FOOL BECAUSE COOL- NESS DON’T BEAT SCHOOLNESS! 25
