... A touch of everything; a taste of hfe hat people do with their ex- g A§ tra time varies as widely as J J the personalities, whether you hang out in the kitchen throwing together your famous choco- late cake with the flair of a chef, or slamming a tennis ball over a net to an unsuspecting opponent. Hobbies pro- vide relaxation because they ' re a depar- ture from the everyday routine. Kim Porter has found her niche in the cooking world, an ability she often finds put to task when cooking meals for her family. Porterhouse steak, an old family tradition, is Kim ' s favorite. Kim explains, You get a big roast, chop up little onions, green peppers and pour mushroom soup over everything. Raising animals takes dedication and hard work. Donna. Smuda enjoys this challenge and plans to work at raising and training dogs in the future, com- mented Donna. She claims, Caring for an animal could have you a best friend for life. Jennifer Marshall ' s favorite recrea- tion is writing. Constructive criticism is highly appreciated by Jennifer, I don ' t care what grade I get on a paper, but I really care what the teachers comment on it. After writing poems, she likes to share them with her close friends and if, by general consensus, the poem is good enough, Jennifer likes to enter her writing in LaSalles annual Creative Writing Contest. Many people enjoy writing as an imaginative way to ex- press their thoughts. Sports make an enjoyable pastime for many. Advantage can be taken of the beneficial side effects of athletic activi- ties; weight loss, stronger heart muscles, and better all around health. Keilawn Carothers remarks, I enjoy sports very much becaues it ' s fun, exciting, it teach- es you values in life, it ' s challenging, and you get to meet and compete against new people. Keilawn doesn ' t let his athletics get in the way of his grades; grades come first. Grades are a fallback in case you get hurt. Keilawn commented My family gives a lot of support both in athletics and academ- ics. Whatever your pick, your hobbie is a nice break from your life ' s routine. School and work is not everything, so get involved in a hobbie, and enjoy. Gregg Coldiron 14 Some modern bobbies have evolved from drudgeries: horseback riding is a prime example. Jennifer Milliken, decked out in cowboy boots, trots down a dirt road to the less hectic feel of the olden days.

€i Ua t , . , Paisley bit the fashion scene in the 60 ' s, but it ' s ' bacl in a big way this year. Darcy Grzeskiewicz | models her paisley jacket matched with her t cropped pants in geometric pattern. -S back from 50 ' s and 60 ' s by popular demand 16 7 he latch on the door finally broke loose; every floor board creaked as I entered. Just enough light filtered through the small attic window to help me find my way around. Boxes piled on boxes, antiques lay in every corner, the room was filled with memories. I began searching through my grand- mother ' s belongings. I found old photo albums of ancestors I never dreamed I had. I found what seemed like ancient souvenirs from places she ' d traveled and also discovered an old cedar chest filled with articles from my mother ' s high school days. This wonderful wooden treasure chest was filled with gaudy jewelry of brooches and beads, with tight mini skirts and with short cropped pants that were even kind of cute. The deeper I dug the more I found. Soon I began pinning the brooches on my sweaters, trying on the pumps and lacy anklets, modeling the petite mini Student Life Fashions skirts. I plowed through more finding her dust covered yearbook. Flipping through the pages was like strolling down the halls of today. The faces were different but the fashions were similar. For instance, my mother wore the frilly socks just like Tammy Connors, and her friends had on cropped pants like Amy Overpeck. Her old steady even had a flat top like Brian Conley. The following Monday brought with it a whole new look. Was this the 80 ' s or was it really a renewal of the 50 ' s and 60 ' s? I asked a few of my friends what they felt about this cycle of fashions. Marne Jones commented I ' m glad they came back cause I ' ve always thought they were neat (penny loafers, bobby socks and rolled up jeans.) Judy Hessling finalized with I think it is neat how fashions come in and out of n style. The fashions of the 50 ' s and 60 ' s have come back in style and look better | than they did back then!
