Time off from studies, responsibilities, though temporary, makes Friday feeling Something special Weekends! Just the word puts a smile on the face. Students and teachers alike work hard throughout the week, knowing that Friday will come eventually. Many student complain that there is nothing to do on the weekends in Ma- con. Weekend activities for students are just about limited to Northeast games (when they’re at home), the movies, the Mall, or parties. Senior DeeDee Adams said, “‘There’s nothing to do, but go to the movies, when a new one’s out. But what do you do the next weekend? Go see it again.” Although some students may not necessarily enjoy working at their parttime jobs on the weekend, at least they are making money, say seniors Aris Lucas, Cynthia Brown, and Yvonne Stephens. Cynthia said. ‘““My 1@) ° ° ° weekends belong to Wendy’s.” Teachers also enjoy the weekend. After allotting some time for grading papers and planning for the week ahead, teachers spend the weekends with family and friends. Coach Walter Daniely said, “I like having friends over, putting some meat on the grill and playing a good game of Bid-Wisk.” Mrs. Judy Fultz, English teacher and band parent, said, “On Friday Nights I am definitely at the (Northeast) games.” Mrs. Sydney Chalfa, English teach- er and mother of small children, said, “I love to go to Toys R Us and browse.” The kid in all of us comes out at 2:15 p.m. on Friday.
