Easy come, easy go The times are changing, and the prices are rising. Students are spending more and more money daily. Can you lend me a dollar? or Mom, can I have my allow- ance? are familiar quotes from most students by the time Wednesday turns the corner. Where does it all go between Monday and Wednesday? No one knows the answer to this question, but some students came up with possible reasons. Jennifer Burrill, a sophomore, says, I earn the money I get. I do not always make the best decisions about how to use it though. Sometimes, by the time the weekend gets here, I have no money to go oul with my friends. The five most common expenses are food, gas, sports activities, clothes and night life. By the time students pay for food and gas, there is not enough money for all the other things that they want to do. An average student spends about three dollars a day on their lunch by going to a fast food place like McDonald's, Arby's, Taco Bell, or Burger King, while some students spend over five dollars going to Pep- per's or buying large pizzas at Pizza Hut. jeff Dillon takes a look at the new releases. a Photos by Christy Smith.

Speed 1nto the actron w1th the best If you have one you love it If you don t have one you want It It s a proven fact that a teenagers best friend IS his car Everywhere he goes the car goes too Mark Hellman who drlves a 75 ford pickup said Whenever I have enough money to put gas in it I ll drive it But before a teen gets h1s car he must learn how to drive After three incredibly long weeks of driving school he recewes his permit Of course that doesnt do much good because mom has to sit 1n the front seat with him Senior Paige Cantrell shows her homecoming spirit. Executives have offices for high level meetings but junior jeff Patty and senior Iason Christian meet in the cab ofa truck. everywhere he goes Then finally the day comes when he turns SIX teen and goes down to the DPS office to receive a real lamlnated Drivers License But where s my car? he might ask I thought that along with the drivers license came a candy apple red Porsche 928 Wrong again Well it shouldn t be too difficult to restore that green Volkswagon bug into a dream car As someone said once Life is tough 1n the big city Photos by Karl Morris and Christy Smlth

But, in order to conserve money, students take turns sharing driving expenses with friends on the weekends. High school students show their spirit by rooting for their school team and, on the weekends, Texas Tech University. High school foot- ball games cost from 51.50 to 53.00 and grass seats for a Tech game cost 53.50. That is not a large price to pay to be able not only to root for your favorite team, but also to be with all your friends. Nightlife is another of the many ways students spend their money. There are movie theaters that students go to on the weekends. There are also a couple of teen clubs that are enjoyable for socializ- ing and dancing.Neither of these are very expensive. After students realize they have spent all of their money,they often say, Easy come easy go! Iaki Harrison gets ready to go to lunch. Tim Morrow and Steven Dorrow have lunch at McDonalds. Students try to find bargain seats at The Winchester movie theater and other theaters which offer reduced mme to draw patrons. . -- .1 .2 U .yew f-:,g,-ff :elesft grstgg-11 sig-55 as 5 5 studentlife I N I ir safest. sw, at mf.. ,,r 4 F' -wi, :ii sa 1 as E53 ,..
