Oh, what in the world am I going to do tonight? Should I go to the movie theater or the shopping mall? Oh, I just can’t decide!” For some students, the movie theater was the local hangout. Students went, not just to watch a movie, but to eat popcorn and to socialize with friends. Some enjoyed going to the movie theater because there were a lot of guys there,” stated Diana Wil- liams. The movies are something to do on a Friday or Saturday night to see your friends, plus there is a large selection of movies you can see.” For other students, the local mall was the place to be. The shopping mall was synonymous with clothes. food, and friends. Being with friends,” was Brigitte Whitman's reason for going to the mall. Where else is there to go than to the mall?” she asked. Although some students liked to go to the mall to be with friends, some went for other reasons. I like to go to the mall and shop because I like to keep up with the latest fashions,” stated Patricia Smith. The mall is a great place to buy the newest clothes.” Students may not have much free time anymore. When they do, however, they spend it at the movie theater and the mall.

HONK . . . HONK . . . ’’SEEENIORSS 1” . . . ’'CLASS OF ’88 RULES.” Yes, August 21st started out loudly, to say the least. The seniors strutted their stuff with their senior motorcade. They made it clear to everyone that they were the ruling class at LFO. Unfortunately, not every class had the same enthusi- asm towards the first day of the new school year. For instance, freshmen were just starting the long hassle of class credits and GPAs. Leslie Garrison, a freshman, was nervous the first day because she ’’didn't know what was going to happen,” and Tisha Akins had ’’trou- ble finding places.” They had four, long years ahead of them to get accustomed to the school and people. Luck- ily, sophomores had already been through ’’first day jitters” and were ready to handle the first day’s havoc. Juniors, on the other hand, were becoming upperclass- men. The responsibility and pride that went along with this title was ’’overwhelming,” according to Melanie Moyer. As the day ran on, assorted thoughts went through everyone’s head; expectations were held by everyone. Meredith Morrison, a junior, expected to come back to school with three years seniority on the underclass- men, but also much harder work.” Whatever the thoughts and feelings were on August 21st, all students knew that summer was over and school had begun.
