Favorite Hangouts

By Cyndi Neff

When you remember high school, what do you remember most?

Friends The friendships you make in the years you ' re in school, stay with you fore v er. They're the ones you look forward to seeing when you go to your class reunions, and they're the ones who take you back to your childhood years and make you remember all the fun times you had Whether it's pranks you played on your siblings or telling secrets at slumber parties, those memories will be cherished always

For those leaving school and going into the "real world," lifestyles will change, becoming more challenging, and the need for friends will be even greater They'll be there to room with, gossip with, fight with, and whenever you need it they'll always have a shoulder for you to cry on Looking back on the school year, it's not the classes, or the grades, or even the teachers you remember . It's the clubs with your friends, lunch with your friends, going to games with your friends, everything you recall is with your friends, as it should be . For nothing would matter if there wasn't someone to share the excitement of life with.
