Students Were Ready for the Fast Weekends After Cortez students finished a long hard week of schoolwork, most were ready for the weekends and what the fastlane could br- ing them. For many, the fast lane brought parties. Almost every weekend one could plan on at least one party that would bring every one together to kick back and celebrate for one reason or another. Parties are fun because you can just kick back and be yourself, ex- claimed Amy Bratt, senior. Scott Davis, also a senior, added lt's great seeing all your friends and it keeps people off the streets. Most of the parties could be found at someones house, somewhere in the desert, or various parks around the valley. Cruising was another popular pastime. Cortesians could be found cruising anywhere from Central to Metro or even A.S.U. usually most were looking for a party or just checking things out. This year the fast lane also brought more people to the dances. I think more people 'vent to the dances this year and were lots more spirited and TOGETHER!, said Jennifer Derr, sophomore. People really seemed to catch the beat and make the spirit rise high for the night. Kai.
