You are among the fortunate in today’s society. Fortunate because you have been able to persevere through twelve years of schools; fortunate because you did not succumb to the dropout’ statistic; and fortunate because you have chosen the path that you will follow in life - the path of success. Christian F. Hebbel, a German dramatist, wrote: Life is not anything: it is only the opportunity for something All I ask is that you seize every opportunity that presents itself to you. take from it what you need to reach your goals, mold it to fit the blueprint' you have drawn for yourself, and do the very best that you can, with whatever you have, wherever you are.

Scene from Just One Day: Mary. It's a lovely day. Emily. Emily. What? Mary. I said it's a lovely day. Emily. Yes, it is. Mary. I think spring has come early this year. Emily. Yes Mary. Everything is so green, so alive. Haven’t you noticed? Emily. Yes, I have. It's beautiful already. Mary. Let’s sit down a while. I can’t believe it's so warm, so early. Emily. Yes Mary. We’re weeks ahead of last year. Emily. Yes, we are. Mary. It’s just beautiful. Emily I really appreciate what you're doing. Michael. Hello. Emily. Hi, Michael. Mary. Hello. Michael. Sorry I’m late. Emily. You’re not late. Right on time. Michael. Good. Emily. Well, Mary ... uuh, nice to see you. Tell your folks hello for me. Mary. Are you sure you don’t want to drop by now and look at that review? I think it would be very helpful. Emily. No, thank you Mary. Really, but I guess not. Maybe I’ll drop by later. Mary. Whatever you want. Bye. Emily. I think so. I think it has. Emily. Thank you for meeting me, Michael. Michael. Well... uh, sure. No problem. Emily. Emily. I know. Michael. As a matter of fact, I have practice in just a few minutes, so I can’t really stay long. Emily. I understand. Michael. I mean, I really need to be there on time and everything. Emily. Sure. I tried to call you several times ... You were always out, I guess. Michael. Yeah. Must have been. I’ve really been tied up. Emily. Yes. Your mom said you were awfully busy. Michael. Well ... Yeah. I'm so busy. Michael. Emily, I’m sorry. I know I should have called or something. Emily. No, that’s all right. Michael. No, it’s not. I should have. But the truth is, I didn’t know what to say. I still don’t. I just don’t know what to say. Emily. It’s all right, Michael. Michael. Emily, I'm sorry. It just hasn’t worked out, that's all. I thought. ENCORE! 81 GETTING TOGETHER 84 STUDYING Getting good grades is not just a matter of having a high IQ. In fact, no matter how intelligent you are, to succeed in school you need to master a variety of practical study techniques. Study means to apply the mind to any subject in order to learn about it. Study is accomplished mostly by means of reading observation, questioning, listening, and reflection. It is an important part of the process of learning. The purpose of study is the discovery and understanding of information. As we know, effective or successful study consist of much more than merely memorizing facts. Because knowledge is important to every person, it is wise to learn how to study in the most effective way. Plan carefully how to use your time when you are least tired. Cultivate the habit of taking notes in outline form both while reading and during classroom work. Whether you are considering going to college or enrolling in a different kind of school, this summary might convince you of the need of good study skills. 86 STUDY SCALE (+ 10) I study throughout the semester.

AISHA-LIFE By Ahsonna Muhammad There were times when we gave up hope Those, when our lives were in shambles until the moment we met Aisha And saw how much of life she gambles Life is a trying situation which Without struggle wouldn't be worth living For all the proof that's weakness In Aisha's total being But we are proud of the strength beyond That takes a special seeing By the will of the Almighty Creator She’ll pull right through this hell And live to be strong and healthy With a story of faith to tell ...
