IF I ONLY HAD A CLUE 99 Today, I ' m going to pay attention and understand everything in Trig. I re- peated this as I walked to the dreaded room 324 de- o keep this promise I had made to my- self. I walked into the room and said my hellos to every- one around my desk, even though I had just seen them all three minutes earlier in English. I reached down for my notebook and pen. Glancing around I realized everyone was talking and laughing. Leaning over to a friend, I asked, how can ev- eryone be so calm when in just a few minutes we will be overpowered by cosines and tangents, or is my mind the only one that goes com- pletely Hank when in this room? II waited for a re- sponse, [none came. I then noticea she was busily colorin pin a map due next period and didn ' t even hear my question. I leaned back slowly. I ■k. The bell had rung and the class quieted except for the sound of my friend ' s green crayola giving life to the Philippine Islands. My teacher walked over to the board and began. I figured my promise would be broken in the first fifteen minutes of class. It seemed everything he wrote was in a secret code written specifi- cally to exclude me. It just dared me to look out the window, glance at the clock or talk to a friend. I tried to listen, as I stared at the board, making a futile at- tempt to decode what he ■Id written. I thought I was ■ally concentrating, wait- Big for a breakthrough. ■ hen I saw it, something had happened. I was horri- fied. Somehow, while I was ' concentrating the rest of the entire board had been filled. I looked down, my no- tebook was empty. I checked my friends ' notebooks, they were covered with notes, graphs and tables. Where had I been? I was positive I had been paying attention. Then before I knew it he started erasing the first part of the board. I tried to get the notes down, but it was too late. They were gone. I really had attempted to follow along but I was lost, again, as usual. I sighed, the bell rang. I threw my notebook (empty again, except for those first few lines of undecoded se- cret knowledge) back into my bag. Walking out the door, I thought, Tomorrow, I ' m really going to pay at- tention and understand ev- erything. 29

dp OUTSIDE THE SCIENCE DEPT. Hypothesis, thesis, control group, experimental group, and variables are all words unfamiliar to WHS except for that one time you might have seen them in your science text book. But these are common words to the English Department who, directed by Mr. Trahan, has launched an exciting new program involving two freshman English classes. The experiment is trying to improve the creative writing of the students. The experimental class does all their writing activities on the word-processor, where as the control class uses the traditional method. The English Department hopes the outcome will be successful as it may improve the writing skills of future WHS students. i ABOVE: Two students seem to have forgotten the hang of things. ABOVE: One student even seems to be enjo ing herself! 30
