This new law changed the lives of many students. Some strongly disagreed with the new law, while others felt the passing of the law accomplished what should have been done long ago. It doesn't necessarily stop kids, but it makes it hard to get, explained junior Jeani Reich. They should be mature adults before they make the choice to risk ruining their lives. Others weren't as concemed for the teenagers as they were for the younger students. 'Little kids get started on these things and it's bad, said junior Trina Mason. Some students disagreed with the law. It's stupid! exclaimed junior David Smith. It doesn't matter to me. I'm 18. But it's still stupid. lf someone has been chewing since they were little, they have to quit. Whether students agreed or disagreed, the law was the law, and all had to abide by it. I think itls good because we'll all live longer and we don't have to smoke to look cool, ex- plained junior Jennifer Denman. The Way It Is.

It's a vice like drinking or smoking, but lots of fun. Brightly decorated stores, joyous music, the shuffle of thousands of feet and the aroma of new clothing and products filled the air. Separately they didn't mean much. but together they represented the familiar shopping mall. Shopping malls make me crazy. said senior Laura Greenwood. I just go crazy grabbing up everything I see and am able to get my hands on, Another familiar item at the mall was MONEY! In this diverse world of shapes and colors. money came in different styles such as credit cards. checks. money orders or just the plain old greenback. ' I prefer checks so I can keep track of the money I have spent, said junior Glenna Berry. Where did all the money come from? Most of the students' money was given to them by their parents for absolute necessities. But jobs provided an extra income for those little things parents' money didn't cover. I am saving for a car, said junior Lori Burch. I drive my mother's, but I want to purchase the car of my choice. As much as everyone enjoyed shopping. there had to be an end somewhere. My money doesn't go as far as l would like. said junior Jason Jackson. Therefore, I have to work orl don't get the things I enjoy like movies, nights out on the town or a new car. As the school year progressed. money became just as important as the studies. A person's senior year is the most expensive time in his life, said Mr. Mike Adkins, senior class sponsor. You have the prom. graduation. announcements, cap and gown. etc. Everything just piles up, hopping For A School. Senior Karen Thompson looks at brochures advertising colleges and universities.
