n the early 70's, the Carpenters sang the idea that Rainy days and Mondays always get me down. The 80's rolled in and Mondays still brought us down as we were faced with the depressing thought of Blue Mondoy, Reody or not Here it comes another week of school. Alarms sounded and stud- ents, as well as teachers, sleepily awoke, unwilling to leave the weekend behind. Before school, students re- minisced on the events of the past weekend, as the first bell rang prepared for the long day ahead with reluctant groans. The time-bomb was ignited. Mondays catch me by surprise, they always seem to find me unorganized. I don't think there's ever been a Monday that went well for me, said Lisa Each Monday morn' Boiesgunior. I CAN'T TAKE IT.

Attendance was not required and some students found Shipley's or 7-Eleven much more enticing. At 3:20, the halls exploded with the sounds of students making their way out into the real world. Afternoons usually brought relaxation and homework. Most tried to finish by 8 p.m., so they could gather in front of the television to watch, Little House on the Prairie, A Monday Night Movie, or to see their favorite teams com- pete on Monday Night Football. After homework was com- pleted and favorite television programs were watched, ev- eryone set their alarms and went to bed. Another Monday was survived. WAKE-UP SLEEPY HEAD!

- Presidential election Young Lite provide breok in routine he biggest problem with facing Tuesdays was trying to keep them from being mediocre. Since Mondays were reduced almost to non-existence, Tuesdays were left to bear the load of anti-climax after a weekend. While Liberty Belles strug- gled with new routines, cheerleaders were faced with coming up with original ideas to promote spirit for the games that week. On Tuesdays we finish learning routines and stra- ighten up the chaos that went on Monday when we learned the new routine, said Susan Braselton. Liberty Belle Cap- tain.

The meet- ings were held at various student houses and consisted of skits, singing and discuss- ions about Christian life. Tim Mackenzie, Ann Blair, Harriet Loveless and other Parkview Young Life members provided the leadership. Young Life also offered some weekend camping trips and a trip to Colorado during spring break. Election day held a greater importance to seniors this year. Eighteen year-old sen- iors were the first to be able to participate in a Presidential election since those in the Class of '77. Envious support- ers that weren't of age campaigned for their respect- ive candidates, but had to wait to exercise their voting right. Though the daily activities were rather routine, Pats tried to make Tuesdays a little out-of-the-ordinary and with fingers crossed, struggled to retain their sanity until the weekend arrived.
