Weekends are made for . hen? Where? What time? Beyond the hustle and bustle of six classes, students looked for various forms of entertainment. For some, clubs, band, or sports added enough spice, but others looked further to find some exciting way to spend their 115 hours per week away from school. Attending a movie, always a popular source of entertainment, stretched the wal- let to the tune of 34.00 per ticket. But most students found room in their budget to see Prince's Purple Rain. I went to see Purple Rain because I wanted to see Prince perform. I wanted mostly to hear the great music, said junior Anita Pittman. Another option, Dandy's Game Center, provided fun, a chance to gossip, and an opportunity to play games with other classmates. I usually go to Dandy's when there is nothing else to do. I like it because it is a place I can go and see all of my friends. We usually leave from there and go to a party or something, senior Cindy Williams said. Still others often enjoyed a meal out at Mama Iean's or Hardee's. Even eating couldn't fill every weekend hour, so stu- dents sought entertainment elsewhere at times. Thirty rolls of Charmin', dark clothes, a strong arrn, and a fast get-away car pro- vided recreation for one certain group on several evenings. Yes, toilet paper pro- vided a source of fun outside the bathroom. When we woke up on Sunday morning, we thought we had been hit by a blizzard, but it was only a decorating job by the C.C. falias, Casual Clanjf' said Spanish teacher jane Parvin about the rolling job done on her house. Saturday, normally a day reserved for sleeping late, gave students an opportunity to relax and to participate in individual activities. On Saturday's I usually go to Chapel Hill to see my girlfriend and we go to a football game or to a party, senior Mat- thew Wescott said. Teacher workdays were always long awaited holidays. When they came on Fri- day's or Monday's students were able to enjoy a long three-day weekend. Some stu- dents just relaxed while others used the spare time to work and earn some money. Over the three day weekend in the fall, I rested and recovered from the first nine weeks of school. I also read a romance novel and played in the leaves with my niece, said senior Marcia Coleman. - Lea Daughtridge ll Deciding the stiff price is worth it, senior Tom Shannon and junior Kevin Cox buy their tickets to Prince's new movie Purple Rain.
