he day started off with a green bulletin, followed by green clovers decorating the quad, and ended with games, prizes and green food at lunch. March 17 wasn't just another day, it was St. Patrick's Day. Aside from the fun and laughter of wearing green and pinching those who did not, it was also a day to enjoy the enthusiasm present in everyone. l always look forward to this day because l have so much fun looking at all the people dressed in their funny, green outfits! laughed junior Heather Consolo. Most of the excitement started at snack. Various contestants lined up on the rally platform as the judges decided who were the best-dressed people in green. ln the end, senior Trey Pogue and freshman Lainy Dickson were chosen as the winners. Even though snack had ended, the fun had just begun. As soon as lunch started, contestants lined up to play the games. Some of the games were Pass the Apple Under the Chin, Pass Green Lifesavers on the Toothpick, Rolling the Apple Across the Rally Platform, and Eating the Doughnut Off a String. The prizes for the winners consisted of shamrock cookies, or the privilege of kissing the surprise leprechauns. Unfortunately for the losers, they had to kiss the Blarney Rock. Because the surprise leprechauns were hidden behind a cardboard box, it was not revealed until the end of lunch that the winners had been kissing senior Shelley Powell or sophomore Brian Simmons. Some clubs even took advantage of the occasion. With NHS and CSF selling lime floats, and the Science Fiction Club selling green rice krispy squares, many students were found huddled around these booths. Junior Stacey Teramae commented, l'm so glad these clubs sold food! lt was such a hot day and those floats were really refreshing! These three clubs were not the only ones who contributed to the fun of the day. Cabinet put in a great deal of work as they organized the games and provided for the prizes. Although, the clubs and cabinet put in a great deal of effort to make this day a success, it would not have worked without the spirit and enthusiasm of the students. lt was amazing to look down the halls and see so much green. l was surprised to see so much spirit! remarked sophomore JJ Hamilton. by Michelle Oh St. Patrick's Day Zurlinden attempts to roll an apple across the rally platform.

can't help it! Off in her own world junior Kerry Siminski, is caught twirling her hair Many times habits were the last thing one noticed about themselves. irst, an offbeat type of behavior was exhibited. Next, that same behavior was frequently repeat- ed. lt soon became addicting, and before anyone knew it, a habit was formed. De- spite the well'known belief that all habits are bad, some habits happened to be good. And yes, still other habits existed that were neither good nor bad. l think watching someone else's habits cracks me up more than anything! exclaimed freshman Thadd Steiner. Many things triggered these habits. However, the few which seemed to bring about the most variety were tension, an- ger, boredom, or just something one did ever since childhood. Junior David Rose commented on one of his habits. He said, l've noticed that l have a ner- vous twitch when l'm under a lot of stress. Grace Del Aguila, a sophomore, was one whose habit surfaced in times of an- ger. She said, My nose flares when l get upset or mad at someone. l'm sure it makes other people laugh so hard they probably can't even take me seriously. Boredom was another reason why people developed habits. Junior, Dana Williams commented, When l get really bored in class, l start to chew on my pencil. lt's something l've done ever since l can remember. Lastly, there were those habits that existed just because. Sophomore Daniel Pinchbeck, for example, was one who noticed, that this guy whose locker's below mine, likes to arrange his books from left to right in descending order. No matter what the habits were, it was a fact that everyone had them. Whether these habits were good or bad, they seemed to add a bit of personality to each and every individual. Besides, they're fun to watch, added sophomore Julie Hoy. by Michelle Oh Habits 'VX ks -'HL
