K Those Heavenly Holidays )-[ Life isn't rough for senior Kim Gaisky, who enjoys spending her holid«iy in Israel. She is being led through the Arad Desert on a camel. Making sure she is the center of attention at a New Year's party in Tennessee is freshman Kathlcnc Swanson. Summer vacation was a great time of year for many students. When summer was over, students began marking their calendars and looking forward to those special and exciting holidays. For many, these days meant going out of town to visit family or just staying here in the great city of Peoria trying to catch up on the missed soap operas and forgetting about the headaches of studies. Even though Halloween was not recognized as a school holiday, it was definitely used as a party day. Many students celebrated by going out to parties, along with dressing up in outra- geous costumes. Thanksgiving and Christmas were T times for family reunions. Many students remained in Peoria, while some traveled far and near. I didn't miss Peoria at all. Spending time with my family in Dallas, Texas, made Christmas the best yet, com- mented sophomore Tracey Lee. Of course, students still looked forward to other holidays during the school year. For instance, Valen- tine's Day brought big smiles to many students' faces when they received candy hearts in their first hour classes. Although Valentine's Day was on Saturday, receiving candy hearts on Friday made the day a great one, stated senior Jeanette Semaan. Some other days observed were Martin Luther King Jr's birthday, and Casimir Palaski's birthday, which was celebrated for its second year. Students were now ready for Fas- ter vacation as the close of the school year was near. Students always looked forward to those holidays during the school year. Even though school work was very important, it was always nice to relax and cele- brate on a holiday.
