Sarah El-Dabaja

Sarah El-Dabaja is a senior at Southern High School. Her favorite thing about being a senior is knowing that the past 13 years of hard work are paying off and that it was worth it. After she graduates she thinks that there are two things that she will miss, which are; having her mom with her all the time just in case she ever needs anything and the friendly atmosphere. One piece of advice that she would give to next year’s seniors is “ Don’t let senioritis set in too early, you still have a year ahead of you in which there is a lot to be learned.” After she graduates she plans on attending Ohio University, beginning in the fall quarter 2008. She is going to double major in civil engineering and math. After she gets her degree she plans on either working as a civil engineer/ surveyor or teaching at a college.

Dustyn Johnson

I sat down with Jr. Dustyn Johnson to talk about this school year and his future plans. Dustyn will be a Sr. next year, and says he will work a full time job at Darrell Norris and Sons greenhouses to get ready for his senior year. Dustyn is a member of the FFA and loves the trips they take. After his graduation Dustyn wants to take some time off school but eventually get a two-year degree. Dustyn attends Carmel Sutton United Methodist Church and lives by the motto “If you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime”. In ten years, Dustyn wants to have a nice house a wife and a kid but for now is happy working and playing paintball. I ask Dustyn to describe this year in 5 words and he said: fast, horrible, I pod, bonfires, and detention. --Alex D. Hawley
