My friend believes in one rule in which she governs her life. And that is ‘‘a person has to work hard and remain true to themselves in order to achieve and to get the best out of those achievements.

Cassandra McCollum Cassandra’ Cassie Sandy Stinky Do you re- member “Life’s a beach and then you drown”, “'l wish my fingernails would grow’, ‘Did you do your Chemistry homework’, “Did you do your Physics homework”, ‘I have to make up my Chemistry test’, “Jon and I are over for good (next day) We are back together again’, and “I’m a Jamaican, man”. I'm a Gemini Who's Lifetime Goal is to Become a Psychologist. Human mentallity has always been one of my greatest interests. My first 76 patients will be the Class of 87. I love you guys and I’m going to miss you alll! (sike) To Clesia, Sandra, and Allison You've been my inspiration. Whenever | needed a friend at least one you were there. (THANKS) To Jon, best friends are hard to find and when you find a boyfriend and a best friend in the same package you've struck gold. To MOMMY and DADDY, what can I say? THANKS for giving that extra push. | LOVE YOU VERY MUCH! To Mal and Me, (15 months old) | know that you are not old enough to understand but out of all the people I know you have shown me the word love really means. Michael McDaniel Greetings. | am Michael David McDaniel. Some- times, I am reffered to as Mic (Mil) or (Mid). A promi- nent pet saying of mine is, “Don’t worry about it!’’ | say this in a relaxing rather than careless tone. Currently, | am involved with Lincoln-Douglas de- bate, which has given me confidence when speaking. Also, | attend Upward Bound, which has functioned in my life as a social and academic outlet. I have been involved with both activities for 4 years. Neverthe- less, the climax of my high school life has been in- duction into the National Honor Society in my junior year. I plan to major in business or computers in college. But, | want to become an entrepreneur. It is easier to become nothing, but harder to become something. Farewell, I will say to the junior class and succeed- ing classes, and think for yourself. Kemain positively motivated. Be honest with yourself and find yourself. I view history as the cornerstone of our lives, because it gives us strength and guidance. No, | am history. My stay at UHS was fulfilling.

Jeffrey Morgan William Moye Throughout my years in school, | have achieved a well-rounded education. I have been in many pro- grams, courses, and clubs that have contributed to my being. From my first day of school, to my last, | have struggled to get ahead in all of the obstacles that have come my way. Friendship seems to come easily to me. I have friends with teachers and stu- dents alike, many of which | may be close to for the rest of my life. | am happy to say that I have enjoyed these years immensely, and | hope the rest of my life is as good. In life, to achieve any goal, you must always begin with a firm educational background. Although suc- cess is everyone’s dream, it cannot come to be with- out education. Regarding education, parents provide the motivation. It is up to them to begin your educa- tional career, thus starting your life on the right track. lam glad that my parents felt this way about me (and still do). If it were not for them, I would not be where | am today. With the help of my family and friends, my whole life has been filled with “goodness and light.”’ | thank all of you.
