8 T.G.I.F. Whew! Thank goodness it's here, the most anticipated day of the week. . . FRIDAY. It is the day that seems to take the longest to get here and goes by the fastest. lf only Monday could go by so quickly. Friday shows a perkiness that no other day does. The students are more talkative and the weekend enthusiasm seems to show through in everyone's eyes. As the day goes by you can see people making plans with friends, talking about who's going where to eat or asking about possible parties. By the time sixth period arrives students are restless waiting for the 3:30 bell to ring. Clock watching is seen in almost every classroom. The bell rings and the students rush out. It seems to be a race to see who can get out of the door first. At any rate, the school is emptied, the doors locked and the night is on. Everyone goes their different directions and looks for a good time. College bound juniors and seniors spent the evening in to rest up for early morning SAT and ACT tests. Some went to the lakeg East Hills or the Trestels were most popular. Others preferred places like the Magic Time Machine or Bennigan's. Still there were some who found their way to Feather's Disco or Davinci's. Friday usually ended about 1:30 or 2:00 Saturday morning and everyone knew there would be another week of anticipation . . . , 'til next Friday. Wild and crazy Friday nights often brought friends together on Forest Lane. Throwing their own party on a Burger King sign, Tony Waltrip, Steven Duponte, Kirk Spencer and Bill Glaze enjoy a typical Friday night. pHlVE THU' Fall h 7 m4 'i if . gf xl VV Q Q I-C.. . g F fx' Anxious to leave school on a Friday afternoon, Tommy McGuire and Rick English, seniors. warm for the night ahead.

Dear Gertrude, Wow, you wouldn't believe all the different people here. Everyone in our town is the same. but here people's personalities stand out in everything. Hats really seem to be popular. Not just the usual styles - cowboy and baseball- but really original ones with horns. feathers. signs. etc. There were even two seniors. Murray Iolley and Kirk Spenser. who wore blow up Spooky Kook hats. You know how we always put bumper stickers on our cars to specialize them. Well. some of my friends here have personalized license plates. They stand out a little more than our stickers. but from what my friends say, it has its disadvantages. Couples are always getting in fights because they catch each other in the wrong place. at the wrong time. with the wrong person. Explanations of It wasn't me, won't be accepted. When I first started school. I looked at the t-shirts people were wearing. I know you think it sounds weird, but that's how I found out what they liked: Led Zeppelin, Triumph, Earth. Wind and Fire. football. SMU . . . they just like a lot of things. The girls volleyball team wears shirts saying I've been ldalizedf' Later, I found out it was about their coach. juniors Ierry Tonubbee and Tony Waltrip expressed their feelings on disco -they are definitely against it! Concerts over the weekend meant a new variety of t-shirts I saw Monday. You'd be surprised at what all I found just by looking around. Oh well. I better not go into that because the bell is due to ring. Miss you, Gretchen P.S. I've enclosed some pictures so you can see what I mean.
