Salad Anyone? I came to Harding much like the salad does in the cafeteria on Mondays. Fresh, green, and full of energy. Four years later for me and four days later for the salad, the resemblance was there again. Tired, old, and limp. How I became a tired senior and how the salad became tired lettuce was as extreme as the night and day. Seniors enjoyed sitting around making fun of the freshmen and the "freshmen'' things they did. Like, when they did not know that they shared a mailbox and placed John Doe's letters back in campus mail. I guess we seniors were really laughing at ourselves. We were once freshmen, too, you know. I had so much eagerness as a freshman. I had more energy in my body cells than a Duracell battery. I channeled all that energy into my social life. Classes were of little importance to me, but high on my priority list was the fifth table down on the left side of the cafeteria. Eating was not my first concern either, but those girls who ate at my club table were. Those girls seemed to enjoy spending their time with my social club, and we enjoyed that time spent with us. Every women's social club had a member present at "table five left:' There was better representation there than any meeting at the U.N.. Things changed quickly though. My sophomore year I found myself actually thinking about studying and I now held an office in my club. I had new friends that year and trips to "table five left" were not near as frequent. Those girls were just not as cute as they used to be. Projects and papers came pouring in my junior year. Classes were no longer nap time, but time to sit up straight and button my ears back, because I am no longer getting those notes by osmosis. "Table five left" did not even exist anymore; neither did my club. Things did change quickly, and I sure don't have that energy I used to. My freshman year I had nothing to do and all the time to do it in. But now that I'm a senior, I have so much to do, and no time to do it. Where's all that energy I once had? I guess I channeled it into my responsibilities, put it to use or something. Or maybe I still have that energy, but instead of it going to waste it went to work. As for that salad, its energy was wasted unless it was consumed. Wait a minute! I guess poeple have more in common with lettuce than I though. The energy in people and lettuce was wasted unless that energy was consumed. Maybe if we gave some responsibilities to a freshman he would look more like a senior. Give him some responsibilities and some time, about four years worth. Anybody out there want to go eat a salad? - David Rector Kimberly S. Burton - Honolulu, HI. Ar t.
