''c-l- '.- • ' /: nnui? i7r»rii_ moom - DECEMBER 1994 THE FULL MOON Features EDITOR : KELLIE PALMER PAGE 2 Santa's Helpers At AHS by Eloise Odom The spirit of Christinas is in hearts everywhere. Children’s eyes are filled with images of Segas, Super Nintendos, and Power Ranger action figures while older kids look forward or at least hope to get a new car or stereo from “Santa Claus.” Many people are also looking forward to helping others during the holidays while also making mucho dinero. Santa helpers, elves, gift wrappers, and many other jobs keep students occupied during the winter holidays. Students have also found the warm hearted feeling that comes with helping an elderly person decorate for Christinas. If you have never had a Chriunas job or helped anyone out during Christmas, you should try it. You’d be suprised at how fast it gets you into the Chrisunas spirit and also how fast any Scrooge in you disappears. Writing ransom notes is a good source for Christmas cash. 2 FULL MOON F’ublished nine times per year by the journalism class at Albemarle High School Member Quill and Scroll Editors Shannon Homesley, Heather Smith - Editors-in-Chief Jill Story - Managing Editor Carmen Land.

Christinas At Blockbuster by Jennifer Lowder As Christmas comes closer, and the weather becomes colder, nothing feels better than sitting at home all nice and warm, especially after you just spent the day shopping for nine hours in a crowded mall. Most people usually like to spend the rest of the day relaxing on the couch or the recliner with a cup of hot chocolate and the remote. But wait! As you. flip through the channels, you see there is nothing on except QVC and the Discovery Channel.
