f stzzdezzt gf hat's the point? What was the point, anyway? Most of us agreed that friends were the point, whether it was boyfriends, girlfriends, or best friends. At pep rallies we all cheered together with one pur- pose in mind: to support our Mustangs. Arms crossed, hand- in-hand, we sang the alma mater at the end of every sports activity - whether we won or lost. And we shared our joys or sorrows over pizza after the games. This was what it was all about. As Friday nights were spent cheering on our Mustangs, Satur- day nights were usually spent out on the town. At six o'clock on Saturday nights, hair dryers were roaring and hot water was runn- ing as we rushed to get ready for that seven o'clock date. As the doorbell rang, we brushed our hair for the last time and ran to open the door. Whether that smiling face was a boyfriend or girlfriend or just a casual date, we knew a fun night was ahead. Though a dinner and a movie was the typical date, sometimes we doubled to Six Flags for a day or to Trail Dust for a night of good steaks and kicker dancing. After the exciting but hectic weekend, we spent Sunday hur- rying around to catch up on homework. We got together and studied for that English test that our unsympathetic teacher scheduled for Monday or finish- ed those five biology labs that were due. During the week, homework was sacrificed for more impor- tant things. We yelled to mom as we ran out the door that we would be home no later than ten o'clock. As we jumped into our cars we thought of all the things we had to do. Some had jobs. Others were lucky and did not work. This freed time for play rehearsals and organizational meetings such as Fellowship of Christian Athletes and Youn Life. Or we rushed off to lig weights or go to jazzercise class. And anyplace we went, we found friends with common interests. So what was the point? It was having fun and enjoying the good times we shared. The point was friends. fCoupe 8: Shieldsj Many students spend their leisure time in the Media Center reading magazines, newspapers, and books.
