Spare time remains scarce Freedom is appreciated by students Students are doing it all, from homework to wild weekend parties. Maybe they don’t get much spare time, but they try to make the most of what they can get. Movies are a very popular form of recreation. The average student sees about two each month. Just sitting back and enjoying a film is good enough for most people, but sophomore Devon Schumacher is interested in making his own pictures. With money earned by doing odd jobs, he has purchased his own studio equipment. He has shot several segments and hopes to have a product ready for viewing soon. He tries to see a movie at least once a week in order to analyze the work of directors and producers. Video games aren't as popular as they were in 1981, but students are still often seen frequenting gaming arcades. The Palace Arcade (across from Lincoln High) gets a lot of patronage from teenagers seeking vicarious thrills through games like Asteroids and Donkey Kong. Junior Dave Jagoda commented, “At the height of my mania, I would spend probably $10 a week, which isn't that much compared to some people I know.” Parties seem to be big events in students' lives. They usually occur on Friday and Saturday nights. Junior Brooke Baker explained, “1 like to go to the games and then go out for pizza with a big group of friends.” Free time sometimes means music. But pop music isn’t the only aspect of interest. Some, like junior Matt Fisher, enjoy classical music. He plays the violin with the Lincoln Youth Symphony and rehearses each week. Church and other community activities also keep stu- dents busy. Senior Wedi-Sue Raines is a member of the United Methodist Youth Council and directs the children’s choir at her church. Seniors Jill Holbert and Amy Fuller are both involved with the Nebraska Council of Youth. Everyone seemed to agree on one thing as junior Kristen Brookes said, “I don’t have enough time to do a lot of the things I’d like to.” It’s all part of the high school experience. 4 — We’ve Got It, Outside Interest
