LIBERTY RAZR CURES CLASSROOM BLUES A science project, math finals, a vocabu- lary packet, and a painting for art- all due by Friday! I need a break. Oh well, I guess I can do my vocabulary now. Soporific - tending to cause sleep Mo- notonous- having little or no variety Ardu- ous - difficult to dog laborious Ennui - weari- ness and boredom Enough of that. I can finish the rest of my work later. Right now I'm going to relax. All students at George Dewey take free time to relax and take their minds off the pressures of school. They hang out in differ- ent places after 2:00 and on weekends, both on and off base. Where you hang out de- pends on your lifestyle, according to Wen- dy Walker. Wendy said, I usually go to Cal Jam and watch 'AMO' band play. In Cal .lam I can dance, meet my friends, orjust sit and listen to music. Also living in the fast lane is Arnold Tapawan, who spends some of his free time at the Subie Go-Kart track. There's nowhere to go, says Arnold. The go-karts solve that problem. Other students relax by shooting, whether their target is a clay pigeon, an archery tar- get, or ten bowling pins. Brett Bormann and Don West both perfect their aim at the Su- bic Shooting and Archery Ranges. Brett shoots skeet and Don shoots a bow and ar- row, but both agree that the high point of shooting is hitting the target dead center. Jerry Pearo likes hanging out at the Subie Bowling Alley. I can play video games, eat, play slot machines, and of course, bowl, said Jerry. I bowl every chance I get. Hanging out isn't necessarily unproduc- tive. In fact, many Admirals spend their free time developing themselves, both physically and mentally. The Subie Gym is a popular hangout for many students, including Mark Santero. Mark Santero explained, I work out and try to eat right. Health is an impor- tant part of my lifestyle. For the quieter side to self-development, there are the Subie and Cubi libraries. Often found between the stacks of books at Subie is Cristy Venable. Reading is how I relax, stated Cristy. One can imagine that he is in the book he is reading. When school is out, Liz Ahl rides horses at the stables, also a popular hangout for some Dewey students. Liz said, lt's exhila- rating to run a horse. It's relaxing, and above all, it's cheap. No matter where students spend their free time, you can bet that they'll take their minds off school. We all need and deserve the time to take a break from school and relax each day. Hanging out around Subie gives us a chance to do just that. BEACHED. trightj All Hands Beach and Grande Island are two places to enjoy all forms of water activities.

SICK BAY JUST WHAT THE DOCTOR ORDERED Doctor, Doctor! Can you help me? I don't feel so good? What are your symptoms? I have a terrible headache, probably from figuring out formulas and equa- tionsg my ears are ringing with Bach and Handelg my fingers are cramped from essay tests, and my stomach hurts from the slides we have to watch in health class. It sounds like Senioritis. Is it serious? What should I do? Take two boat'rides, and call me in the morningf' The therapeutic and treasured tradi- tion of Senior ditch day broke the six month monotony of schoolwork for the class of '88. The day began with the early birds catching the 8:00 boat to Grande Island to get a head start on their tans. Since Feb. l was Super Bowl Monday , sports fanatics joined the rest on the 10:00 and 12:00 ferries. The scorching, humid weather mixed with exhaust prevaded the tarp-covered boat. Relief came only from seawater splashing through cracks in the canvas. It was a long and hot boat ride, stated Max Dayanghirang, After getting off, Ijust ran to the beach and cooled off. Part of the cure for Senioritis called for light activity and a lot of nourish- ment. Grilled hot dogs, potato chips, kool-aid fall funded by a collectionj, and a potluck of foods, such as Spanish rice and lumpia, filled hungry stomachs as soon as the late-sleepers arrived. It was good to have more than one.selec- tion of food, stated Mike Leon Guer- erro. Bumps, jumps, and thumps, accom- panied by aloe vera, sunblock, or baby oil characterized the sports agenda. The seniors engaged in volleyball, foot- ball, basketball, and tennis while bask- ing in the winter sun. For some Seniors the call of the sea beckoned them to try another part of the cure. Swimming and snorkeling gave a chance to put aside all frustra- tions of the real world and explore a different one. Rica Venable stated, It took a lot off my mind. Stress was building up from things like yearbook and Senior English. Other seagoers took arduous and dangerous jungle paths to get to the back island of Chiquita for some adven- ture. Senior ditch day was just what the doctor ordered, and Mike Dennis com- mented, I feel refreshed and ifl ever get Senioritis again, I'll come here. .W ,,,. M I ww A .., -. .,,.,,,M . ..
