 . Food 11 place. Yes. the fast food and slow food restaurants cannot even come close to the quality and ambiance of our very own cafeteria It has become a part of us and we have helped give it a well-deserved '•reputation The cafeteria has its good points. It is predictable, for instance, that a student won't be able to decide between the pizza or the macaroni on Monday He decides to buy the pizza, but as sure as there are no napkins, that very same macaroni will be there, waiting for him on Friday Another plus is the value that one receives for his money. This well- balanced four course meal (entree, drink, salad or fruit, and dessert) is prepared to a student's satisfaction right before his very eyes Yes, you've heard correctly, entree. Bet you didn't know that we had a French chef. It makes one wonder why the school cafeteria does not have takeouts Think of all the business they are losing from truckers who must make lunch stops in between hauls.

n: a favorite or usual place of resort; v: to spend one's time idly or loitering around NO LOITERING! So that is what the dictionary says the word hangout” means! Is it possible that Webster could be a graduate of EMHS It is doubtful, but his definition is somewhat dose to the truth. Our favorite or usual place of resort includes deserted classrooms, the many dark but cozy alcoves, and those windowsills that are either freezing cold or exploding with enough heat to give a person third degree burns on his you know what . They may not be perfect, but each of us likes to think that they are our very own special places Even if that place is shared with fifty other people (as in the case of the main lobby before homeroom), we still claim it to be our hangout And what about the verb form? What do we do before homeroom and for those four minutes between classes? Hangout ... of course. (Some people even hangout during dass). In the course of hanging out, there is an exchange of homework and some good gossip. An EMUS student would not consider that spending time idly!
