The summer of 2004 when Lucas came up to NYC, he brought his Lawrenceville yearbook with him so he could have contact information to try and get in touch with some of the folks that lived up here. The two of us spent about 2 or 3 hours going through it together, I don’t think he had looked at it in a really long time, because he was laughing out loud at pictures and the senior pages. He made sure to show me a picture of Britney, Lester and De Bie and a few others. We never had really talked about L’ville that much – 9 months is a pretty short time to be somewhere. I know he had good times up there, but at the same time he really missed the South and had to endure one more year of high school rules.
\nAnways, he left his yearbook here so I go through it sometimes. Since he was a senior again, he got to leave his mark in this year book at well as STJ’s. I thought I would share what he wrote, even though y’all don’t know the people he is talking about, it is still nice to read something in his own words – I can definitely hear him in these.<\/p>\n

Lawrenceville has definitely been an experience. Thank you Mom and Dad for allowing me to come to such a place. Football team: I enjoyed playing with all you guys to bad we didnit have a better season, remember FSU.

Seniors I will always remember this year of my life, you are always welcome to come and visit me in Dixieland. Hardly a competent workman (Chisuano you are an exception) can be found who does not devote a considerable amount of time to studying just how slowly he can work and still convince his employer that he is going at a good pace – Frederick W. Taylor. Most people think great God will come from the sky Take ev’rything, and make ev’rybody feel high. But if you know what life is worth You would look for yours on earth. And now you see the light You stand up for your right, yeah! – Bob Marley<\/em><\/p>\n

L\\'ville Senior Picture <\/p>\n

I think that last part he used as his senior quote at STJ as well. He was also voted most unpredictable. I don’t know whether to burst into tears at that one, or just laugh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
