Remember the days when your eyes would light up everytime you saw a Christmas tree? Remember when you couldn't wait to have your picture taken on Santa's lap? Remember when you received gifts, but never had to give any? Now, after seventeen years of looking at Christmas tree lights, the thrill isn't completely gone, it's just not as exciting as it use to be. Growing older has also put an end, for some, to sitting on Santa's lap. It was not age, but our increasing sizes that kept many off Old Saint Nick's lap. Increasing prices were also a problem for students. One of the most popular Christmas crazes of the year was the Cabbage Patch dolls. Although many would have liked to give these dolls to their friends or sisters, they were terribly hard to find. If by chance one could be found, its price ranged from forty to fifty dollars. For some stu- dents Christmas shopping was only a hassle. After circling the parking lot twelve times in order to find a parking space, they entered the stores only to find that it was more crowded inside the stores than it was in the parking lot. Senior Trisha Frost voiced her opinion about Christmas shopping, saying, I hate it. Everyone is pushing you and shoving you. For others Christmas shopping really put them in the Christmas time mood. Senior Lee Ann Red said, I love all the decorations and Santa Claus. It all makes me go spas- tic! if Q' Although the weather is bad, Looking for a Christmas gift at shoppers continue to crowd the Target are sophomore Sheri John stores searching for the perfect gift. son and senior Lisa Bohn. 246!Best Deal Anywhere

Love, MOM, DAD, DAWN And ALISDN ot Wired For Sound If you were to ask any student who had braces what one of the most exciting moments in their life was, it would be the day that their braces were removed. It hated them,', many people said when asked. There were different reasons for having to wear braces. Some students may have had an overbite, underbite, or their teeth may have been crooked. My teeth were extremely crooked. My parents said I was getting braces and I cried, Elisa Caplinger commented. Having braces meant having to worry about such unusual things as eating tiny bites of food so as not to get food stuck in the braces, setting off the metal detector at the airport or worrying about kissing another person with braces as being afraid of being permanently locked in an embrace. The pain and agony students went through was enough to make them pull their hair out. Wires would start poking and digging into the sides of their mouth, making it hard to eat salty foods. Some people dealt with the pain in drastic ways. I pulled my last six bottom braces off myself with the plyersf, Kim Jones said. In the end, when the wires and bands were gone and a row of shiny, white, straight teeth appeared, students could truly say having braces was really worth it! .Tammy Salmon, senior, passes the time by reading while waiting for her orthodontist appointment.
