The y are the friends and the meals. Jelly doughnuts are the game s played until the sun rises. The y are the afternoon naps and the windo w blinds. The y are living in a hotel and moving into ne w senior dorms. The y are the physical preparations for each class period. The y are the papers that need grading. The y involve all of the items that each person deals with as the year progressed.
