Whether it was o floppy-eored Deogle or a slithering boo- constricror, everyone hod o dif- ferent definition for man ' s best friend. For Bruce Todd, rhe definition of Mans Best Friend could hove best been described in two words, Tekki and Tina, his pet squirrel monkeys. Todd purchas- ed his monkeys after seeing an od in rhe Greensheet from o per form in Hunrsville. I wonred rhem ' couse they ' re unusual and no one else hod one. Todd said. Todd ' s monkeys usuolly ate gropes, bononos, apples ond bocon. Like some domestic pers who performed rricks. Todd ' s monkeys ... (Tekkii usually) likes ro worch corroons on r.v. and sleeps on my neck, Todd said. Yet for orhers, worching their pet ' s eoting habits was con- sidered o rrick.

Because bedrooms often served their pur- poses, some students allowed their creativity to flow when it came to decorating their rooms. And many students believed that o person ' s bedroom often por- troyed the kind of person he really was. I think my room shows my per- sonality ond whot I like, Ashley Vining said. All four walls of Vining ' s room were plastered with one thing or onother. Upon entering her room, one could see o huge tree painted on one wall, while posters of Tom Selleck, Kermit and Miss Piggy dominated another face of the room. Since Vining disliked simplicity in her room, she tried to cover every space on the walls. I don ' t like plain walls, Vining said, white walls ore boring and they moke me feel uncomfortoble. Instead of covering the walls of his room. Dart Mulherin took a different approach to moke his room unique. One object that stood out in his room was a pyramid of empty tobacco cons, Mulherin said that he hod approx- imately 1000 cons which he ' accumulated throughout the years, but the pyramid only contoined one-fourth of his collection. Another prominent aspect of Mulherin ' s room was a Tiger kite hanging from the ceiling. My father bought it for me when he went to San Francisco one year after Christmas, Mulherin said. In everyone ' s bedroom, we could find something to distinguish it from another. These bedroom buddies were what mode each one of us a unique individual. BYQUYEMVU Con the Pyramid. Some of my friends hove done mony differenr rhings with 5l ool cons before so I decided ro build o pyramid wirh my cons, Dort Mulherin sold The pyramid only occounrs for one-fourrh of his collecrlon of 1000.
