The French Club sold the mums as a money- making project. Even with all the school work, extra-curricular activities, and hard work, there was still time for Just messin' around No matter how much work astudent had, he found time to just mess around. The best times for messin' around were before school, during passing periods, lunchtime, after school and sometimes during class. I like to get to school early so I can see all my friends that I don't have classes with, said Kim Maynor, sophomore, Students arrived early at school so that they could sit outside or in the foyer and wait for friends. When I see my friends in the hall, I know I'm going to be late to class, said Lisa Frazier, senior. There were always groups of people standing in the middle of the hall. It would take the group until the bell rang to disperse. But then it was too late to worry. HI don't like to stay at school for lunch, But I like to come back early so I can talk to everyone in the foyer, Sophomore Kerry Winn said. Even if a student didn't have a car or money, he would still rather just walk around than stay at the school during his lunch period. But he always made it back to school in time to congregate with his friends in the foyer, After school I like to go over to Bill's for a game of pool, Jimmy Reed, sophomore, said. Bill's Billiards was located across the street from the high school. It was often called The Buffalo Den. Students went over during lunchtime and before and after school, and sometimes even skipped class to go play a game of pool. I like to make funny noises and faces at the teacherf' said Lisa Emery, sophomore. I like to throw paper wads - daydream, talk, or just go to sleep,'l Sophomore Jeff Crutcher said. These were both classic examples of how students messed around during class time. When students got bored with the teacher or the lesson they often found ways to amuse themselves. No matter how you spent your work time, you could always find time to just mess around. Messin' Around 19
