During the first year in this school, I found myself a stranger in this place. However, I felt a new sense of res- ponsibility; the responsibility that is given only to pioneers. Although many grade school "loves" were carried on to my high school years, something in me had changed. I was still basically good-old Chiqui Cui, but I could feel myself changing through the years. I was becoming a new La Sallite a new man.
