I wait until 8:00 Sunday night to do my homework. Weekends were not meant to do homework, they - re meant to have fun. -senior Annie Weltha -Heather Jesse After five days of school the weekend rolled around. For some students it was a break to have fun, but for others the weekend brought further responsibilities. Many students felt the weekend started as soon as Friday s 3:00 bell rang. It was a time they looked for- ward to all week. “I start thinking about the week- end around Wednesday. | can t wait to relax and get away from school, freshman Becky Allen said. Getting away from school also meant getting together with friends. There are about 20 of us that we call the gang. We usually get to- gether and have a party at some- one's house. We just keep switching houses every weekend, junior Becky Moore said. On Friday nights football and basketball games were often the main attraction. We usually go to the varsity basketball game and then to the school party afterwards, sopho- more Julia Ford said. DB tucents had a regular hangout on week- ends. Senior Mike Herman and friends often supplied food and went to senior Tony Pot- Ier e house.

Students generally rented videos rather than going to a movie theater, and found the VCR was a very valuable source of entertainment. Theaters are too expensive at $4 a shot, especially with a date,” senior Trevor Andersen said. “Now | sometimes go to Nevada where it's only a dollar.’ Other students found weekend activities expensive. I spend all my money on week- ends. | spend it on food, movies and who who knows what else,” senior Dave Sedgwick said. After going out and spending money on weekend nights, many students considered mornings an ideal time to stay home and catch up on sleep. On Saturday mornings | usual- ly sleep in to 10:00 or 11:00. It de- pends on the mood I'm in, fresh- man [heresa Franco said. However, some students couldn't sleep in because they had to get up and go to work. Unfortunately, | can't lay around and watch all the games on | TV on the weekends because Um usually at work, junior Brian Kraus- man said. Other students had plenty of time to just lounge around on week- end days. On Saturdays | basically do nothing. | just lay around and watch a game on TV,” junior Brian Camp- bell said. But some students incorpo- rated a little exercise in their day. “| run on the weekends to stay in shape for the upcoming season,” junior Dan Bergan said. Weekends were also used to catch up on homework. Some of the gang get together and watch movies of books we were supposed to read for English, Moore said. But others put their homework off until the last minute. | wait until 8:00 Sunday night to do my homework. Weekends were not meant to do homework, they re meant to have fun, senior Annie Weltha said. | | | |
