Shopping is probably one of the things teenagers do most frequently and one of the things they do best. First of all, you get paid on Friday and then it's straight to the mall with a whole wad of cash in your hand. pocket, purse, or wallet. As soon as you get there you hope to find that just perfect out- fit for that big date or party. There are quite a few places to shop at, such as the local malls like the Meadows, Fashion Show, and the Boulevard. Some stu- dents were polled about what mall they like to shop at and the results are as follows: The Meadows came in first with 630!n, The Fashion Show came in second with 21010, and The Boulevard came in third with lltoln. As you can see a lot of people like going on money- spending trips. A few stated that they c0uldn't care less where they spent their money as long as they're with friends and the money gets spent. But not everyone goes with their friends, some for instance lliterallyb drag their parents along to hit them up for the items they want. lsn't that what parents are for? To take advantage of, right? But of course parents don't look at it like that. They tend to give you what you want every once in a while, but most parents believe in the Barter System which means doing the housework, cleaning the yard, taking the dog out for a stroll, etc. Just basically doing those dreaded chores everyone detests lincluding your par- entsl. Unless your parents totally adore you, and they give you what you want without you even having to lift a finger. Then there are your typical parents who tell you to earn your own personal spending money because they don'twant you to be a spoiled brat for the rest of your life. Either way, you still have to be decently nice to your parents to receive what your heart desires. What exactly do people shop for? Anything and everything, I guess. And what for? Just any occasion. For example, birthday gifts, clothes, Christmas presents, etc. And of course, l'm sure everyone would absolutely love to find a set of parents on sale or maybe just for rent. Come on think about it, shopping is a past time that will never grow out and become boring and tiring. Shopping is the one thing that everyone will do sometime in their life: some more than others, but 'that's Iife'.

A.5w WWW EOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT tradition A A LWAYS ARoUN radition is being the Freshman who is dumped head first into a trash can, getting your class ring, the Homecoming Dance and Junior-Senior prom, last but definitely not least, GRADUATION! When you're a Freshman you go to school on your first day hoping you'II make it through the day without getting hopelessly lost and without spending all of your first hour trying to get your locker open. You make it through the day and you're heading for the buses, those childish Sen- iors see you and you are head first in a near by trash can before you know what hit you. The per- fect finish lo the perfect day in high school. As a Sophomore you order your class rings and you go to the ring turning ceremony. You spend the next few weeks trying to get all your signa- tures along with a sore finger. The questiion is Will you ever get them all? The Homecoming Dance and the Junior-Senior prom are both important moments of your high school years. There are times when girls go rush- ing around looking for a dress which nobody has and the boys are renting their tuxes, corsages are bought, Iimu's are rented, and dinner reservaf tions are made. The day comes and you wake up with butterflies in your stomach. Just a little case of the nerves, The time finally arrives. Parents get camera happy and you get even more nervous. You arrive at the dance with your dream date. It's all that you expected and more. Graduation arrives all too soon for Seniors. They order their cap and gowns and receive their tassels. Walking down that aisle and receiving those diplomas is like nothing they have ever felt before and for many will never feel again. Tradition is special. It is something to look for- ward to and it is something that we will look back on with fond and happy memories. Tradition is something we will forever treasure, especially here at Eldorado!!!
