Gossip, pool, shopping, cards leave guys, girls with tough decisions when they’re TOGETHER The Poker table was filled. The chips were stacked. Now it ' s up to the five guys wearing torn shirts and ripped jeans to decide who will take home the big money. On the other side of town, a similar scenario was taking place. Brewing up the latest gossip, five sweats-clad, pony- tailed girls also gather around a table. And although there may not be any chips laid on the ta- ble, the stakes are nonetheless high. “Ladies night,” was for ladies only. Pigging out, clothes swap- ping and most of all gossiping were for sure to follow. Gossip provides a way of keeping up- to-date on who is doing what to who,” sophomore Jo Galvin said. After finding out the latest scoop, watching a movie was a popular choice among girls, of- ten to enjoy a good cry. “We usually see romantic movies when we’re all together,” Me- lissa Klee, junior, said. “If we’re out with a guy and we start to cry, it is extremely embarrass- ; it ing. While girls chose an evening of gossiping or catching a mov- ie, guys preferred a more com- petitive evening. Athletic event proved a popular choice for guys to hang out. “We go to hockey games any chance we get because the action is non- ending,” junior Nick Autry ex- plained. “The fights and the rowdy crowds throwing stuff on the ice always makes it worth the trip.” Some even went as far as competing among themselves. Photon let players run wild Although the pot is already brim- ming over with money, senior Chris Dywan, again, raises junior Jason Ry- band with assured confidence. Poker was not only an exciting way to spend a Friday night with the guys, but also for some, very profitable. shooting beams of lights at each other. Shooting at your friends is unexplainable,” sen- ior Mark Roper said. “Every game is different. A dog may be a man’s best friend, but a pool table runs a close second. “Most everytime my friends are over, we play pool,” sophomore Robert Grady explained. “However playing pool without a little side bet just isn’t exciting.” Excite- ment, like beauty, is only in the eyes of the beholder. So wheth- er fun meant shooting hoops or playing pool, seeing a movie, or swapping clothes, students of- ten turned an ordinary “ladies night” or guys night out” into something a little more than or- dinary. With five other girls anxiously await- ing downstairs, seniors Sue Anaszewicz and Lynn DeChantel gather popcorn to munch on while watching a movie. Slumber parties were a popular way to get together and gossip. While i l freshman Karen Hughes sizes up a new sweater, sister Kathy, junior, examines it with extreme caution. Tak- ing a friend along to help decide what to buy made shopping a lot easier. ” 22 Same Sex Fun
