Perhaps it was side effects from being overly anxios. Where did they get these names? Well, now Cayuse is giving a couple of students the opportunity to rename themselves. Here are some of the vic- tims of this unavoidable curse . . . Aziza Baig — If I could change my name it would be Sabrina because it sounds nice. Imran Mohamedy — Michael Smith because it ' s average. Noel Juinio — Gary, because I don ' t like Noel. Ik Choi — Finn, because it ' s my Ger- man teacher ' s name and he ' s a good teacher. Bijal Vakil — I don ' t think I ' ll ever change my name. I think it ' s stupid for people to change their names because they should be proud of their names. Khoa Iran — Bruce, because that ' s what some people call me. Quoc Nguyen — I wouldn ' t change my name. I like it, it ' s unusual. Fe Aquino — Janet, because I like names that start with a ' J ' ! Rafael Orantes — Maurice, because it sounds European and you can say it with elegance. I don ' t think 1 ' !! ever change my name. I think it ' s stupid for people to change their names because they should be proud of their names. — Bijal Vakil Chan Chou Chuang — I don ' t think I ' ll change my name. Aren ' t some of those names unusu- al? Most of them probably hated their first day of school. It is so annoying to be sitting in a room full of your school peers while your new teacher takes roll and mispronounces your name. You may also be one of those people who despise their middle name. Every- time you show someone an important document or driver ' s license, they see your middle initial on it and demand to know what it is. But the people with unusual names are not the only people that want their name changed. What if you have a very average last name and it takes five pages in the phonebook to locate your name. Or when your first name is John; everytime someone yells out your name eight people beside you turn around at the same time. This is when changing your name, middle name or last name comes in handy. Let ' s face it. Shakespeare was way off base when he wrote. What ' s in a name? story by Lily Chen: layout by Grace Domingo: drawing by Gary Miraz. [ Changing Names Juniors 197

You coming to my party tonight? STEVE: You bet! I wouldn ' t miss it for anythiing! Everyone from scliool is gonna be ttiere! MARK: Yeaf). It ' s gonna be the talk of the school on Monday! STEVE: Can ' t wait! See ya there. Almost every weekend during the school year v os spent wondering what to do that night. Sometimes, the only thing to do was stay home and watch another re-run of Miami Vice. But if stu- dents were lucky, some outgoing, down-to-earth party thrower would put together a bash for friends, peers and anyone else who felt like being at a par- ty. This wasn ' t too common, though. One big disadvantage of throwing a party is that cops always come and break it up. Then they harass every- body and threaten the people who are throwing the party, said Joe Vega. Other disadvantages included the neighbors, who often complained about the music and loud noise, par- ents who found out about a party that It ' s too hard to have fun when you ' re running around making sure everything is okay. — Mike Robison they didn ' t know of, and, of course, the most common of all, the carelessness towards the house. That included sto- len property, broken belongings and thrashed rooms. I don ' t like hosting big parties be- cause it ' s too hard to have fun when you ' re running around the house mak- ing sure everything is okay and still in place, said Mike Robison. But sometimes people would do any- thing to have a party, thinking that the advantages definitely outnumbered the disadvantages. Examples like it being a great way to meet new people were seen as a positive advantage. Also, friends had a safe place to get together and stay out of trouble. STEVE: Hey, Mark! Heard your party got busted at 8:30 Friday night by the cops. MARK: Yeah, not only that, but my house got messed up and my parents found out about everything. STEVE: Well, there ' s still one advan- tage. The party sure will be the talk of the school on Monday! story by Michelle Garay: layout by: Dee Honda 1 198 . uniors Parties
