Wearing the sheets off the bed to school on Toga Day was as normal as the ants crawling around in the lockers. Although it helped, getting involved was not always necessary to simply enjoy as Emi KEEP IT COKIN' - says senior DeAndr0 Anderson. Making a large ice cream sundae was popular on food days. WHATS THAT? - asks junior Angela Ford. Watching others dance helped bring out one's own style of dance. ALL DRESSED UP, - and no place to go, say seniors Dina Leslie and Darlene Chavez.

Slow- f f ly, but surely, he rises from his cozy covers. The air is cold and chills run up and down his legs as he drowsily pours himself a bowl of snap, crackle, pop. Upstairs, his mom is shouting, Darling, can you let the cat in? but he doesn't even hear her. All he can think of is the fun he had this weekend. The movies, the parties, and the beach cloud his mind. When he finally comes back to his senses, he realizes that his mom is stan- ding in front of his face.

Can I stay home today? he asks in his sweetest voice, but she says, No, So he reluctantly grabs his books and keys and walks out the door. As he habitually pulls into the parking lot, he realizes that it is full. So, he parks in Egypt and runs hysterically to class, only to have the bell ring a second before he opens the door.

He keep saying to himself, Not this again, as he suddenly become aware that he has fallen victim of The Monday Morning Blues.
