S . 'ATL' - School's 0ut! Vacations were always welcomed S by students weary of school Most students will agree that the best part about school is the breaks. Planning started long before the actual date. As students began looking for that perfect bathing suit or buying a new pair of bibs for the slopes, the air filled with excitement and anticipation. I like to go on trips just like anyone else, said freshman Kathi Kretzsch- mar. Over Christmas I visit friends and family, but over spring break I head for the beach, preferably Day- tonal Some students enjoyed just staying in Coppell and visiting friends or going out of town to see relatives. On spring break I enjoy going out with friends, said sophomore Heather Hall. I also like going to visit relatives and friends in different TAKING A BREAK.

Others got away from school during holidays but kept their friends with them. I had a great time going skiing in Purgatory with about 40 other stu- dents from Coppell, said junior Mike Johnson. We were doing crazy stuff like ski jumps off headwalls. We also spent a lot of money shopping. The only bad thing that happened to me was on the last day when I did a spread eagle off a headwall and my bibs split in a very embarrassing place! As students counted down the days to the next vacation, the breaks from school were the one thing that kept them going. Copy and Design by Chris Burton Student Life Co edli

.Ht Got It, Don't Got It W 'I' Either the sky's the limit or ' you're flat broke Having all the money in the world and having no money at all can both be problems. If you had all the money you could ever want, what would you do? Sail around the world? Buy clothes by the truckload? Take your girlfriend or boyfriend out to the most expensive restaurant in Dallas? I would fly to France for the even- ing and dine in one of the finest French restaurants, explained senior Heidi Hanson. Then I'd tour the city in my limousine before flying home first class! Some students found more roman- tic approaches to new-found riches. I would take my boyfriend to din- ner and out shopping and buy him everything he wanted, said sopho- more Laura Ferguson. Having no money was not as glam- ourous. Students had to resort to dif- ferent ways of retrieving money. When I don't have money, but I want to go out, I just beg my mom for the money, and she usually gives me enough to last for one night, replied sophomore Nicole Wright. When students couldn't come up with any money, they were often led to do crazy things. lt seems like whenever no one has any money or anything to do, they declare a party at my house! said sophomore Jeni McCurdy. Whether students had money or not, they usually came up with a way to have fun anyway. xrklf 3 qm- TX X td INDY 500.
