Rooms reflect lifestyle Likes, dislikes expose distinct personalities ' he personalities of the student body i were varied and unique. Each student id his own distinct personality and all the ings that surrounded himg his temper' ent, likes, and dislikes. The most distinc- ve thing that revealed his personality was s bedroom. Bedrooms showed the interest of the udents. For example, any Cougaette iuld be recognized by her bedroom. Who se would have a room full of posters torn om the school's walls for future use, pzens of dead flowers, and a room done in lack and white. lOr perhaps a jock's room would be more lcognizable with its trophies, medals, pat- es, and a dozen pair of tsmellyj eakers-excuse me NlKES. The brains bedroom would be visualized libarians with stacks of books with such Bombeck's syndicated column. Half eaten sandwiches clutter dresser tops while clothes, clean and dirty, collect in piles on the floor. The people who don't care about their bedrooms, seem to not care . .seem to not care about school. . . ' about school, remarked Theresa Koch, thus showing that the personality of the bedroom reflects the owners personality. Whatever your bedroom looked like you had better like it a lot, especially if you were grounded. Those poor unfortunate souls who got caught coming home late or as Advanced Space Theory and The Handbook. Another type of bedroom-slob n-comes straight from Erma for other offenses spent a great deal of time at home. Parents seemed to favor this form of punishment over all others funfor- tunately for usb. -Kim Wallace 518 With a bulletin board full of mums and ribbons, Debra Anderson's room shows the typical Cougarette room. 249

Pat Greene proves serious work can be fun as he hams it up on the way to French contest. Many stu- dents spent their vacations on school sponsored trips. Despite the rain at NIOSA, Kelly Johnson and l had a fantastic time entertaining our exchange student, Eliz- abeth . . . we were the only people dancing to the Dix- ieland band. Meaghan Kirk Karl Koch and Gisela Triana take time out for danc- ing at the Texas. lt was late in October when the Rolling Stones came through Texas as part of their American Tour. The fall concert pro- duced a memorable experience for all of the estimated 75,000 people in attendance at each of the two shows in both Dallas and Houston. lt was a rare occasion for most to see one of the best rock n roll bands of all time strut their stuff live, right before their own eyes. And that they did, two and a half hours of cranking Rolling Stones tunes is as good as it gets for rock fans these days. Performing on one of the most amazing stages imaginable, six five story columns of speakers flanking each side of the stage, the Stones played 25 of their best hits all to the delight of the roaring crowd. ln the waning moments before the Stones took the stage, the excitement and apprehension of seeing some of the most famous musicians in the world do exactly what it is that makes them so famous, could be seen on all the smiling faces in the crowd. Then suddenly the apprehen- sions were shattered as Mick Jagger burst onto the open stage, dancing, prancmg, smiling, and waving to the now deafening roar of the frenzied crowd. The opening song Under My Thumb seemed to be exactly the position that the Stones had this joyful crowd. The Stones seemed to thrive on the excitement and cheers produced by the crowd. All songs were played to their fullest, especially You Can't Always Get What You Want which featured Mick Jagger being swung out over the audience on a cherry picker encouraging the audience to join in singing the chorus. As the sun started to set, the encore to the show gave everybody com- plete Satisfaction knowing that they had just seen one of the best shows of their day, leaving the memories until the next tour.

cf Q ' N Waking up gets harder to do towards the end of the year because there are a lot more activities going on. You stay out later, which makes time to get up come a little earlier. There is also the fact that at the end of the year you're so tired of school, you want to stay home most of the time anyway. lt makes it almost impossi- ble to wake up. Scott Zook Junior J'
