A Change of Pace An average high school student is always heard saying T.G.I.F., but not at Lubbock High. As you walk down the halls, you will hear T.G.I.T. or Thank goodness it's Thursday. While other high school students are sitting through another day of the same old thing, Lubbock High students are busy walking to McDonald's for an Egg McMuffin, decorating cakes, or anything else that one thought im- possible for a regular school day. Fridays are definitely a change of pace. Students can choose not only the classes they want but also the times. Some students would rather get a head start on the weekend by starting at 8:00 and getting out at 12:00. Other sudents enjoy the ad- vantage of sleeping late and getting to school at 10:00. David Koh, a junior, says, Friday classes are a good time to relax and learn about the things you did not know. Some of the more popular Friday classes are Breakfast Club, Athletics, History of the Beatles, Aerobics, and Yoga. Breakfast Club is a time to talk about problems over a choclate covered donut and a glass of milk. I I I studentlife 5' 4 Tark Middleton, Daniel Evans, and Brad Brown strut to the gym where classes such as ping- pong and basketball are offered. There are a great variety of athletic programs as well. Aerobics, Iazzer- cize, and Iane Fonda Workout are 55 minutes of intense workouts. These classes are not only for girls, many guys enjoy the strenuous excersises as well. On Fridays, school is out at noon for some. Friday lunches are also dif- ferent because no one is in a hurry to get back to class. Often students decide in the halls who rides with whom and where they will meet. Chinese Kitchen, Benaglio's, Schlotzsky's, I. T. Mc- Cord's, and Chili's are favorites for Friday lunches. Friday classes are one of the unique programs offered. Thursday nights for students are the same as Friday nights for students at all other city high schools. Lubbock High students get a head start on their week-end. This is the only school that offers such a dramatic change of pace-another reason why Lubbock High School is the best! jennifer Chuang discovers that even academic classes such as S.A.T. Prep. can be full of amusement. Erin Piper expresses happiness at the thought of consuming some real food McDonalds-another advantage Fridays. in a nearby of L.H.S.
