Poll want a cracker? Surveying the students, we had hoped to find unusual pets like elephants, piranhas, or aardvarks. but perhaps those animals, though interesting to contemplate, would not make good pets. What we did find was a variety of animals that ran the gamut from hamsters to horses. Between the poles, we found cats, dogs, rabbits, fish and birds of many varieties. Now you may think dogs are dogs, but there’s a great difference between a chihuahua and a Doberman Pinscher, not only in size but also in temperament. Many times the pet fits the personality of its owner. The one characteristic all the owners share is a great love of animals.

We can see a bored student in studyhall with nothing better to do working on homework, or a frantic student cramming for a test he forgot. But no one studies all day. Most students have a favorite pastime — talking. We gather in the halls, hold forth in the smoking area, and greet each other like long lost friends at lunch because we love to talk. A good deal of each school day is spent thus. Some students spend their time more constructively. Walk into any studyhall and you will see at least one person sleeping. When balancing a social life, it’s often hard to get enough sleep. So, school time becomes sack time.
