Spring Break

Minnesota Boy

Saul is a 15 year old sophomore at
North High who has spent his whole life in Minnesota. With the exception of
Wisconsin, he has never traveled beyond the Minnesota boarders, “I go to
Wisconsin to visit family, but I’ve never been to another state,” he says.
Saul has two sisters and one brother who “get
special treatments.” His sister is on a competitive dance team who may be
traveling to Las Vegas sometime this year, “I’m really excited to go there.
Plus, we would drive so I would get to see even more of the country.”
When Saul was younger, he almost
got hit by a car. “I was too young to remember to look both ways and the car
just barely knicked my leg,” he says. Saul also developed a fear of heights,
but explains, “I can handle most roller coasters. Some are just too tall.”
In the future, Saul plans to go to college.
Considering he hasn’t seen much of the country, he is thinking about attending
school in Boise, Idaho. “I’m interested in their academics and sports,” he
says. Maybe someday, Saul will no longer be considered a “Minnesota boy.”

Jequone Hill, Friendly North High Student

Journalism I


Moving to
North High School his freshmen year; Jequone Hill had no problem making
friends. During and after school, Jequone will most likely be found with
friends. Age, ethnicity, culture, or status does not matter to Jequone.

“I hang out with a variety of friends,” he says. His friends range from ages 14-28. Freshmen or senior, you will be welcomed by Jequone.

Being an only child, Jequone makes his friends his family. “If I had to estimate how many friends I have, I wouldn’t know. There’s too many.” He chuckles.

Jequone may seem like a popular guy, but he doesn’t take notice of it. He’s just an
average person, who’s easy to get along with, and that’s good enough for him.
Whether he’s in school, at the mall, a Chinese restaurant, or watching TV, he’s always with
company. He explains, “The only time I’m alone is when I sleep.” Jequone is
never too lonely.

Being at North High school for three years has gained him all
the friends he needs. Jequone is a guy who hates sports and is good at
computers. So how can be so popular? Hm… Maybe high school has changed. Or maybe you should just be friendly like Jequone.
