lthough there are possibiy more important things going on in our world today, there is nothing quite so much fun or quite so talked about as entertainment. And there were definitely diversions worth talking about this year. Whether your taste runs to the thrill of movies like Broadcast News, the humor of Eddie Murphy's Raw, or the romance of Dirty Dancing, there was something for you in the theatres. But if you didn't want to go out, and you didn't mind waiting awhile, renting movies remained a popular activity. Another popular stay-at-home activity was playing board games, with Pictionary and Scruples leading the way. The Ouija board was another popular indoor sport. Movies left their mark not only on theatres and video stores, but music as well. La Bagmbaj' from the movie of the same name, and The Time of My Life, from the Dirty Dancing soundtrack were both ifl songs from movies, along with Who's that Girl? by Madonna. In addition to movie songs, there was a variety of other offerings from the world of music. The songs ranged from the hard rock sounds of Whitesnake, Def Lepard, and Billy Idol's remake of Mony, Many, to the mellow sounds of Smokey Robinson and Steve Winwood, and from the political commentary of U2 to the Ububblegum pop of Debbie Gibson and Tiffany. There were also big names like Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, and Bruce Springsteen who made an impact on today's music.

Pages by Rieta Buttaro hat is fashion? According to the dictionary, it's the current custom. But ask anyone, and they'll tell you it's more than that. It's a personal expression of You It's telling the world, This is what I think. This expression takesimany forms, though. There is by no means one way to say it Call it what you want: fad, style, trend, or the in thingf' It all comes down to the same thing- what you wear. Whether you wear your clothes because it's r comfortable, keeps you warm, or because it's in your closet, it still says something about you. And at Roncalli that message took on exceptional meaning. Because of the regulation blue and gray that weiwore to school every day, what We wore outside of school and even what we did with our uniform was noticed by others. But enough talk, what was hot this year? Well, we went to Journalism II to see what they found around school. I-Iere's what they came up with. The biggest look in jeans for both sexes was the acid-washed look. But this wasn't restricted to just jeans, there were denim skirts, dresses, shirts, and coats. Leather bomber jackets were popular for girls and guys, also. Much to the delight of the male population, mini-skits made an impressive comeback, and a new version, the bubble skirt, also made a few appearances. And what does one wear with a mini- skirt, you ask? Cropped tops, and mock turtlenecks Were spotted quite often, as well as cropped jean jackets, Other favorites spotted by the journalism staff were small purses, worn over the shoulder, neutral colors such as khaki and moss green, and lace-up boots. But no one can tell you what to wear. We're just interpreting what we see a lot of at Roncalli. Fashion is the chance to be yourself, so take the chance.
