' ' ll urning 18. Was it J I just a number ... or I was there more to H I it? Though it may have seemed to be a step ahead, there were also some disadvantages about it. When surveying the senior class, they felt that when they were 18, they seemed to have more opportunities. They were able to vote and they no longer had a binding curfew by law. Another ad- vantage of turning 18, would be that they were respected more by others. Teachers treat you more like adults. said Natalia 01- mos. In contrast, there were also disadvantages about it. 18 year old males were ex- pected to register for the draft. Though they were giv- en more freedom, they also had more responsibilities to deal with. Another disadvan- tage of being 18 was that if they commited a crime or misdemeanor the results were worse. Rodney Thomas said, A disadvantage is that you can get arrested and go to jail. Although there are disad- vantages about being 18, it was said that it will be an age which brings many new ex- periences that will eventually lead the person to adult- hood. story by Jona de los Santos: Layout by Dee Honda: Ptioto by Allen Oder- matt K k When you are 18, teachers treat you more like adults. — Natalia Olmos Turning 18 Seniors 179

Mmw Money. Money, Money. Where does it all come from? Does It grow on trees? Does it come from dad? Unfortunately, not all of us have very rich parents and no matter how hard we try. trees refuse to reproduce cash. That ' s where part-time jobs come in. Seniors had various kinds of interesting jobs, whether it was dancing in a Disney- land parade or making yo- gurt at a yogurt shop. Being in the Disneyland parades is great. They pay me to dance around and have a good time, laughed senior, Jeff Byrnes. Many students use these job opportunities to gain ex- perience. I loved my job at Disney- land. I got to meet people from different corners of the world, said Bret Donnan, former Disney employee. Along with the advantages, there were disadvantages in having to work. Including taking time away from study- ing and time spent with friends. I would have to work or do homework during the weekends instead of going to parties, complained senior Diego Gavela. story by Lily Chen: Layout by Deanne Honda: Pfiotos by Paul Mal- donado 1 | would have to tfork or do homewor. during the weekends instead of going to parties, complained » enior Diego Gavela. — 180 Seniors Part-time Jobs
