As the hours ticked away into the afternoon, then into the weekend, students always made sure that freetime was . . . FUNTIME With thoughts of the week¬ end and freetime in their minds, 2,200 people stomped out of the big gold doors. It was a typi¬ cal Friday for the students, leav¬ ing thoughts of Chemistry, Alge¬ bra, History and English behind. Eve ryone had some hopes of finding something interesting to do. Some people had to look for points of interest, while oth¬ ers had definite plans. Even though they left with a massive stack of books, everyone for¬ got about all the homework and assignments and made time for their hobbies. Some partied, some rode around, some stayed home and daydreamed, but all had a focal point, a purpose —a hobby. One of the more educational hobbies happened to be read¬ ing Greek philosophy. Tom Co¬ leman a junior, who read such material in his sparetime, re¬ marked, I started reading any¬ thing that was off the wall or exposed me to a thinker. Even though a lot of students did some ' ' had to reading for classes, many carried it further and read for fun. As a pastime in some of the longer classes people found flying paper airplanes fun, and Branch Wyatt was no excep¬ tion. Branch was one of a few students who didn ' t just like to ride in a plane, but fly it. The excitement she found in being airborne prompted her to state, It ' s a great feeling to fly about the earth and, see how beauti¬ ful it is! Chip Sparks prefered to stay at lake level for his excite¬ ment. He was a dedicated wa- terskier who had been skiing since the age of six. Chip also said, that he began practicing in early March and continued through the first of August. Church was a big part of most peoples weekends, but most people just go to church, while Lisa Frazier and Sanford Jenkins go to sing, where they received their experience from the church choir. Lisa said, It is in singing that I find a way of expressing thoughts and feelings. Sanford Jenkins was asked how he had become such a good singer, and he replied, I don ' t know, I guess it ' s a gift from God. Whatever the weather, every¬ one always found something to do. Whatever the situation of status, something to do was accomplished in the freetime or funtime of every individual. Anticipating his turn to sing, waits for his cue. Sanford lenkins sang the selec¬ tion, Endless Love . 12 Funtime
