FINAL SCHOOL PICNICS HELD
The 8th grade students and teachers

Thursday, May 16.
The P.T.A. furnished cold drinks on
both occasions.
finds its way to me. I have just turned
fourteen and don’t have my driver’s
license yet, so whenever I want to go
somewhere by myself, I usually have to
walk. Another reason I don’t like—
fourteen is because some people say
you’re too young for something and some
people say you’re too old.
But I do like fourteen sometimes. When
I do something that’s not very good, I’ll
overhear someone say,’he’s just fourteen;
you can’t expect much". Another reason
why I like it, is because I can do most
things by myself and don’t have to get
help from everyone. But the most im-
portant reason why I like fourteen is
because I am fourteen and I have to be
fourteen before I can be fifteen!!!
