Why do you like watching soap operas? I like watching soaps because of all the good-looking men. - senior Vicki Bridges What is your favorite soap? 'Days 0f0ur Lives'. lt's the kind cfshow that JI don't watch it, I go crazy until I ind out what happened. - junior Becky Sochor What do soaps do for you? They help you see how lnfe really is, that it isn't perfect. You see all dqferent situations. - senior Alma Garza Which nighttime soaps do you watch? 'Knots Landing' and 'Dynasty' because I like the action and the way theyfight and get back together injive minutes. Just the reality of everyday living. - junior Kim Gilliland What do you like about the soaps you watch? The guys with the muscular bodies, the scenery and the plots. - junior Regina Doman Do you watch nightime soaps? Dallas, occasionally, because I like the clothes. - junior Angie Davis Do you let homework interfere or keep you from watching a nighttime soap? No way! The homework's boring and 'Dynasty', 'Knots Landing' and The C olby's' have good-looking girls. -junior David Mitchell What does a soap opera offer you that another television show doesn't? The good- looking guys! There aren't very many good-looking guys on game shows. - junior Leslie Barker Why do you watch soap operas? It's fun to see all the messes they get into. - junior Keith Smith What is your favorite soap opera? General Hospital' because 1 am madly in love with Frisco Jones. - junior Angie Mills I watch 'Days 0f0ur Lives' because it not only gives me something to do but I enjoy the personalities. -junior Kim Smith ashed p Watching the Soaps Stay tuned for the next episode of... Many students rushed home after school or at lunch to tune into their favorite soap opera. Those who couldn't get home in time usually recorded their show on a video cassette recorder. I think it is a shame that we have to go to school and miss out on our soap operasf, said junior Laura Patterson. By the time the school year is over and you get to watch your favorite soap again, there's so many new people that itls like a totally different soap. Almost any soap opera on any major televi- sion network was a favorite. My mother got me hooked on it when I was younger, I've been watching 'Days of Our Lives' for ten years now, said senior Jennifer Goode. Most students got interested in watching soaps because of summertime boredom or because their mothers watched them and they got hooked. Many dedicated soapers would not miss a single episode. My brother started watching soap operas dur- ing the summer and then I started watching with him, commented senior Julie Bray. Students had the choice to either watch their favorite soap or pick up the recent issue of Soap Opera Digest to find out the latest happenings. Some of the story lines and plots are realistic and believable, yet others are stupid and ironic, said senior Jackie Memkeem. Being kidnapped by an organized crime committee, not being able to remember shooting and killing someone or having a split personality seemed bizarre but could have happened in real life. I've watched 'General Hospital' now for two years. I started watching during the summer and just couldn't give it up, said junior Glenna Berry. Some of the characters are so un- believable. I get so involved in wanting to see how they can get out of tight situations with their dignity. Nighttime soap operas were also popular among students, Dynasty and Dallas stayed favorites, but 'The Colbys and Knots Land- ing gained in popularity. Students had a better opportunity to view nighttime soaps than the daytime serials. 'Dallas' is my favorite nighttime soap be- cause I like to watch J.R. scheme on every- body, said junior Shawn Tilley. So the plot thickened... S eeping Track. Senior Mary Cunningham relaxes at home while watching her favorite soap. Many students went as far as videotaping soaps during school hours.

Students need jobs for money and clothes: it also teaches them responsibility for when they get older. - junior Darla Haffner METRO CITY DELIVERY Rick A Dianna Royland 8921 South Pennsylvania Phone Oklahoma City, OK 73159 681-2384 Success to all 'SHE PARTY PLFCF Future Business one stop party S op Men and Women of Moore 2102 S.W. 74th Okl h Ot ,OK 73159 ' ' a 5333, Siig-1032 Moore Veterinary Hospital 500 SW 4th Moore, Oklahoma 794-4309 eward of Experience and oney Getting a job in their teenage years was very important to many students. A student needed money to pay for gas, car insurance, new clothes, movies and lunches. 'LI love working with children and I feel very rewarded hearing them repeat something I have taught them, said senior Kim Kriz about her job at Kids World Daycare. I plan to work at Kids World for three more years and then I will open my own daycare center? Students liked their jobs for many different reasons. I wanted to deal with clothes, and that is where I shop for my clothes, said senior Kim Kerr who worked at Foxmoors in Crossroads Mall. Kim had advice for other students interested in getting a job. Don't work anywhere that you don't want to work or are not interested in. It will be a drag for you. Students had jobs ranging from working at various shops in Crossroads Mall to working at grocery stores and fast food restaurants. I used all my money on my first ski trip, sol had to get a job to pay for my next ski trip, ex- plained junior Greg Com. I work the cash register which isn't too hard to do. Wanting to get out of the house and do something productive or worthwhile gave students a reason for wanting a job. It feels good to get that paycheck and know you deserve it because you've put in many long, hard hours for that check, said senior Bryan Sherlock, an employee of Buchanan's Food Mart. Some students had to quit their jobs during the school year to maintain their grades. Many quit because they didnlt have enough time to attend church activities or participate in extracurricular activities. I didn't have the time because of school activities like tennis and my grades, said junior Todd Anderson. I also didn't really feel like working at this time, but I plan on working this summer. Whatever the reason for having or not having a job, students examined their own priorities and made their own decisions. 'Q af JI' 'iw 1.0 s-KX Returning Change.
