Taking pictures of anyone, anywhere, anytime for the PCHS yearbook. Being asked every 20 seconds: "is the yearbook out yet?" is something else I remember!
Stay in school! It will pay off in the end.
I'm still using the same camera I had back in '85, but this time it's getting a workout taking pictures of my new son, Cédrick, born June 7, 2000.

Chemistry and Physics class with Peter D. Jerrod C. Meeting my friends, that I still keep in touch with. Laura C. and Dina D.
Don't be so quick to grow up. Enjoy being young and travel.

Legitimately skipping class by getting out my gold pass, grad night, hanging with the girls at our table, the flirting.
Enjoy every minute as you will look back on your days at PC with fond memories. And as you're looking back, don't dwell on the crap that went on. Focus on the good stuff - the friendships made, the thrill of having your crush say "hi", etc., etc.
Highlights of my life since 1985:
1990 - Graduated from UNB.
1993 - Obtained Chartered Accountant designation.
1994 - Married husband Paul.
1998 - Daughter Caitlin was born.
I would love to hear from any fellow graduates or old friends!
Attention Class of 1985: We have a website at classreport.com.
Other years are starting to build to so spread the word to every PC grad you know.
Borrowing quarters at lunch time
Get the hell out of Quebec (ASAP). Don't let anything get in the way of what you want to accomplish in life.

Well, I guess that would have to be the "Break Dancing" days and attending all the local school dances. Man they were fun, and the memories will be with me forever. There are many other amazing memories during my years at PCHS but, this isn't the place to mention them. (Uh-hum, wink-wink)
A message for future Grads? Hmmmm. Well thinking about it, there is one message that I would like to convey to future Grads. It has to do with, PARTICIPATION!
It's strange but a common comment that I hear from individuals my age is, "I wish I ... during high school." It's quite true though, when you get older you do tend to look back at your teen-age (high school) days and wonder why you didn't do this or that. So my message would be, PARTICIPATE.
Whether it's playing hockey, basketball, football or whatever sports are now offered at PCHS. Or joining the book club, computer club or whatever other clubs are currently available at PCHS.
What about the social committee? You feel you have what it takes to be part of the social committee? Then join and voice those ides!
PCHS school dances. Hope you are attending those school dances. I'll tell you, I have some great memories from those school dances. It would be a real shame for you to miss out on fun and lifetime of memories that come from these dances.
Whatever opportunities there are at PCHS, if you are interested, PARTICIPATE.
Each and every one of them. They helped shape me into the person I am today., Thank you.
To those that I have lost touch with, feel free to email me. It would be great to hear from you after all these years.

My fondest memories were:
*playing "ball" at lunch.
*trying to explain all those "free classes" I had to the phys-ed staff.
*hanging with Donald, Duncan, Gayle and the rest of the b-ball team
*typing class, the boys in auto shop,and Mr Dunning's geography class.
Enjoy and live for the moment, You'll have plenty of time to worry about the future when you get there. Also, participate in as many sports and activities as you can. You'll have more great memories and friends.

Playing basketball, hanging out with great friends (who I still hang out with...why grow up!) Our grad...it was great!
Enjoy life! Time goes by so fast, you have to enjoy the present and let the future happen. Don't be in too much of a hurry to grow up because we never do! Be a kid forever, it's the best way to enjoy life! Keep your friends close to your heart... they are precious.

Great web page! It's wonderful to read what everyone is doing!

Lots of friends and lots of fun! Playing basketball for Steve Murphy. The dances. The oatmeal cookies that were sooo good...and GREEN!?!
Enjoy yourself. Give respect and you'll get it back. Be courageous try new things. Be ready to succeed. Learn from your mistakes. Have an opinion, and back it up. I didn't want this to be too raw-raw, but really think about what you're doing. You can make things happen.
At the end of the day you have two choices: things working out and things not working out. Opt for the positive. Life's too short, don't waste your time. Finally, go to your reunions. They're fun!

Getting kicked out of "Jack" Hemmings Physics 52. He probably thought it was a punishment.
Experience as much as possible, there's nothing that you cannot do or accomplish despite what the system says. Do things that make you feel good. Eat Well.

When the countenance of the Virgin Mary appeared to me in a plate of cafeteria goulash. Discovering a functioning theorem for Cold Fusion in the I.P.S. lab. Skateboarding rather than attending class - oops, that one's fer true...
As Kierkegaard pointed out: Life is a bottomless morass of empty highs and crushing lows. And as Nietzsche said: Remember to floss regularly.

Meeting Laurence G. on my first day at PC. Hanging out with Karen A. in the back plaza. And best of all getting kicked out of Physics class!
Don't wait until it's too late to do the things you want to do. And as cliché as it might sound: Life does get better after 30! We're not old we're just getting started.

Hanging out in the grassy areas, throwing around a football or frisbee in the sun, and coleslaw sandwiches in the cafeteria.
Do whatever interests you - if you work hard and do what feels best, then good things will happen to you. Blaze your own trail.

The friendship of all the people in the TAG program. All those -fights- with Edwina Bogusz. Trying to study in the library with Rachel Katigbak, and -getting lost in the woods- during those cross-country gym classes, so that I could miss my next class.
Whatever it is, it isn't that serious. Enjoy life, live beyond the boundaries. No one knows what's best for you. Listen cautiously, but follow no one but yourself!

Take school seriously, you may be wasting valuable time! Take it from someone who knows :)
Mr. Madaffri
Getting chased by the guard (been so long, can't even remember what we called him) if he caught you off of school property...and well just hanging out with Karen F., Sue and Caroline and all the memories in and out of H/S in those 5 years.
You can fool around AND keep your grades up at the same time... too bad I couldn't figure that one out.

Playing '***hole' at lunch, hangin' with the girls Giselle D., Martina T. & Marie Josee V. & the B-ball boys. Generally wreaking havoc while still appearing 'GOOD' to the adult world. If my mother only knew!
Seize the day!! It goes pretty damn fast so make the most of every moment without getting stuck in the moment. Don't just talk about doing stuff, DO IT! Live, Love, Laugh and see this planet we live on. Lastly, take the road less travelled by, it will make all the difference. I know, I know,I'm plagiarizing. I thought I'd do it for old times sake!

Football, football...football, rugby. It was a big school with the feel of a small place. I had a lot of good times with friends such as Lynn, Paul, Greg, Donna, Rob, Carolyn...
Strive to do exceptional things and be curious. Work hard in your twenties and it will pay off. Get a good education and you can work anywhere in the world. If you go on to university or technical college, don't shy away from the "hard" programs. They will offer you very rewarding careers in the long term.

Good grades will play a huge role in your future. Fool around all you want, have a good time, but keep the grades as best you can!
Frank Miller left the strongest impression.
Don't be in too much of a hurry to graduate, these really will be some of the best years of your life.
