the assignment

you can really separate the “academic” classes from the “slacker” classes because in the latter you’re still playing get-to-know-you games on the friday of the first week of school. we were asked to cut 25 items that represented us out of magazines and glue them on to an oversized piece of colored paper. it was a tough assignment especially when we were given a choice of Martha Stewart Living, Home & Garden, Country Living, and the like. i feel like i know my fellow classmates pretty well because we were asked to present 5 of our 25 items to the class.
pointing to their various items, “i like chocolate. i like the sun and summer. i have money on here because i love having money in my wallet. i like going tanning. i like shopping.”
nauseating.
