Decordic toma = e your locker tit yQaatiiaam “I hate our locker because it’s small and when you open it, crammed-in books and papers fall out and Zaps (candy) spill all 4 over,”’ said sophomore Tracy Greenwood; “But what I do like about our locker is my Tom Cruise picture.”’ 4 The newest craze, shelves found at the — Container Store, rescued many students from the traditional messy locker. “Before we hadethe shelves, it was so unorganized said junior Brooke Carter, who sharés a locker with three other people. “We were all taking each others books and folders. The shelves are worth it.”’ Lockers, one of the few things students can claim as their own at RHS, are often an “extension of the students’ personalities. Many enjoy decorating them to the in- dividuals satisfaction. “We have a baby in our locker,” said senior John Heitzenrater. ‘‘His name is Gerber and we love him. We chopped him out of a magazine and hung him up.”’ “Also, we have a picture of a guy with a runny nose and bands written in black magic marker. We draw pictures and stuff whenever we feel like it.” Heitzenrater and lockermate, senior Rob Patton, decorated the locker themselves. “‘It expresses us,”’ said Patton. Besides Gerber babies, mirrors, various radio station stickers such as Q102 or KZEW, and photos of girlfriends and boyfriends, Tom Cruise can also be seen in- side lockers. The outside of lockers also take on their own character. ‘Sweet Sixteen and Never Been Kissed’’ and ‘‘Sexy and Seventeen” signs can be found decorating hall lockers any given day. On game days, athletes’ lockers are masked by signs such as “Romp on the Rams” and ‘‘Mangle the Mustangs” along with gold and purple streamers. But the cheerleaders aren’t the only ones decorating lockers; they just decorate more frequently. — Sally Whittington 18 Student Life
