if 4 ,gf , Holidays break the monoton of school Crystal Beach, ski slopes, Mexico come alive during breaks Give me a break! A day off was an event to celebrate. Breaks from school didn't come often enough for most of us. Relief came during the Labor Day weekend right after we started school. Already we were drained. Most of us hit the beach for the last time dur- ing the year. The cold days were ap- proaching fast and we took advantage of the sun. Says Lori Lopez, senior, I was ready for the beach! Thanksgiving holidays came just in time. Approximately three months had passed since our last getaway. For most, Thanks- giving was a family get together to give thanks and EAT. Between the turkey and pumpkin pies, we managed to enjoy our- selves. For Christmas and New Year's we got ex- actly two weeks to party. While most stayed at home with the bunches of relatives com- ing, some took off to the slopes. Matt Beshears, senior, was one of the lucky ones. After getting the most of the slopes, he was ready to come back, but the weather wasn't. He ended up snowbounded in Denver! Tali Munoz, freshman, headed to deep, southern Mexico to meet relatives with his family. Celebrating Christmas he ended up at the beach in LaGloria, Mexico. -eg .

Between january and March we got lucky and had two teachers work days. Spring break was long enough for Ms. Bauman, Mrs. Moore, Ms. Smith, Ms. Crisp, and Ms. Butler to dump their books, kids, husbands, and whatever was in the way, to take a relaxing trip in Ixtapa, Mexico. Without this trip, none of us would have had the stamina to make it through the end of the year, comments Mrs. Moore. Although spring break w.sn't long enough, it was the last time off before SUMMER. ,I fabovej Wba! to do with all tba! food, Amie Naughton, freshman, Rhonda Naughton, senior, and little sister gaze tiredly at the Christmas dinner. fleftj Toasting to tbe New Year, Mike Dolce, senior, and Shawn Fontenot, freshman, celebrate with champagne.
