Just your style The styles of the '80’s bring out the personalities in each individual, with the differences of clothes worn today. The styles of fashion today bring out students’ expressions and moods for each and every day, senior Melissa Mount said. “There are so many different styles in today’s fashion and there is always something you can wear that will reflect your mood.” ,0 As for the certain individual style” the students possess, style is a way to show off their personality. “I create my own 'style', senior Chris Moline said. I would describe my style as throw on the first thing I see look.” The fashion of the ’80’s is an ongoing change every few months, if not everyday. This is another way for students to make their own style.” “I love today’s fashions, senior Conni Gunter said. “With such a variety, the craziest things can look so cute together. — by Christy Low- 120 Mini mag

Mini mag 119 eligion Religion — it's a big part of some students’ lives. According to some, it hits really become more prominent among teens. 1 think people are starting to go to church more. With drugs and all these diseases going around, people need someone to turn to who will always be there. That someone is God. sophomore Tamara Hollins said. Senior Chris Moline disagrees with Hollins. He said, Most people in school don't really care about religion. They go on as if it didn't exist.” Some students listen to Christian music such as Stryper (a Christian rock group) and think it makes a difference. Stry| er affects me because I am a Christian and 1 understand what they are saying, but I'm not sure if it affects those students who aren’t Christians, senior Dcna Whitecotton said. Junior Zach Riley thinks groups like Stryper can influence students in a good and bad way. Some people think they are doing good to listen to a Christian rock group. It can lx- bad though because some think they are dressed up like other hard rock groU| $. which contradicts what they are trying to do. Personally I don't like them,” Riley said. There is a law that says there can be no prayer in public schools. Hollins doesn't agree. I think people should lx able to pray wherever and whenever they want to. I think the silent time after announcements is good enough. Whitecotton agrees with Hollins. I pray during the moment of silence, but as a Christian; it would help me if we had a spoken prayer.” Riley said. I most definitely do not agree with that law. 1 can see how it would cause problems, but if it were up to me, we would have it!” — by Jenny Juratck BIBLE STUDY.

Senior Amy Embree is also going to an in-state college next year. I’m going to Fayetteville, she said. Out of state would be nice, but we don't iialify for financial aid. Fayetteville has what I need. Although not as highly cognized as Yale and Princeton, it is a good school. — by Jenny Jur.uck OVIAIINIIA

FADS With the ‘80's bringing in the styles and music of the past, most everyone seems to enjoy the variety of fashion and the sounds of old tunes ringing in the dance floors of “modern age.” Some enjoy the beats of old tunes as well as the attire of “old times.” “Most of the songs that arc coming back have fun lyrics and music, sophomore Elizabeth Metzger said. “I also like wearing mini skirts, bobby socks, and bobos.” But some think a few of the music comebacks don’t do anything, senior Renee Crain said. “Some of the music is a bit much, like Prince's album, for instance. Some people can’t understand how the fashion of the generations in the past came back, but all agree it is a neat come-around. There are things in my grandmother’s closet that I’d love to have,” junior Sheri Low said. It’s as if fashion evolves in some sort of cycle.” Senior Alisha Knight agrees. All the styles are coming back not on- ly the clothes but hair styles also.” Fashion is acceptable from all decades in the past with the exception of the tacky '70’s’. I would never wear anything from tW ’70’s,” senior Mark Barr said. That was a sick period for fashion.'The other decades, yes, but anyone going seventy-ish is definitely not ro be considered fashionable.” Junior Brandi O’Donnell agrees. I like most of the fashion from the past, all except the ’70’s. Bell bottoms and those long collars are things I just can’t handle.” — by Christy Low RIDING IN FASHION.
