The place was Diamond Bar High School. This was the day, we, the students, love. Many of the rules, including the dress code, were broken. Most people took advantage of the day. When I got to school, I almot thought I was in the wrong place. It looked more like a circus or a freak show than a school. commented senior Jia Oak. There was a wide vriety of costumes seen. They ranged from babies to the Hulk to nuns and a life-size caca. I loved Blair Purrington as Pee-Wee Herman. He was an exact replica! ex- claimed Nita Patel. An Assembly was also held to celebrate Halloween, increase school spirit, and cheer the football players. The most exciting thing that happen- ed, was during the pep rally, when the juniors joined the sophomores and then the freshmen joined the seniors in the class competition. For a moment, I ac- tually felt as if everyone was finally uniting together, stated senior Cynthia Provencio. Out of all the bewitching things that happened that day, the most noticeable was the school spirit that was rekindled by the witch's spell. 'r l l SQ, . -U INGENIOUS - Don Nyal dresses up as caca.

X 3 has been said that laughter is the .universal language, and that was cer- tainly true at Diamond Bar High School, where students were very involv- ed with comedy and making people laugh. Students wanted to let people know that life was fun. Diamond Bar High School really put its best foot for- ward when it came to comedy. Teachers were well-known for their stupid jokes or strange, yet interesting, stories. It seemed to lighten up the class period. Students remarked on how funny some of their teachers were. The insight of enjoyment made it funnier and easier for the students to go to class. Teachers seemed to make students feel better about themselves through humor. At Diamond Bar High School, student life was always a blast. Students did not care whether or not others looked goofy or stupid. They were doing just what they wanted to do. Halloween was a prime ex- ample of just how funny and crazy some students could get to make others laugh. lt always seemed that there was one certain student that wanted, and got, attention. Todd Babos has got to be one of the funniest people I've ever met, com- mented senior Heather Alford. Through his humor, Babos made what was a long year, considerably short. There was always a time to laugh and have fun at Diamond Bar High School. YC WW i s i . ... , o K X Xl , QE 5 5469 ' x ' N XX LaughingfStudent Life 27
