kevin wilder evelyn woodring tim wolfe roland yoder darcy young i guess we ' ve always beern compared to the upperclassmen because we did what they had to do a Few years ago but we did not do as well, being in junior high is being compared. there are three substantial halls which connect the senior and junior high, but sometimes they might as well be deep moats filled with pirannahs and alligators, the senior highers were secluded in their own little world, and we tried to escape ours to get to theirs, well, i didn ' t, and don ' t, believe either of these assumptions. 120 i was where my age put

space. the dances were nice even when we didn ' t know what we were doing, i enjoy being where i am, but i also enjoy being considered enough a part of woodlan that i was able to have a part in the play, the musical, and other activities, i was where my age put me, and had to stay within the boundaries of my place, but may i ask just where that put me? 121 James geradol douglasgerbers
