For example, this BY: KRISTI DEMSKI Physics…I wonder if colleges really care if I whole paper. Where was I? Oh yeah Pre- I’m guessing that when normal people pass physics.” As I ponder those, and Calc. Crammed into those tiny desks, I wake up, their first thought is something other mind boggling questions, I usually just keep telling myself I’m gonna stretch like, “I’m tired” or “Why did I stay up so end up paying for it…by a lockerslap in the when I get home so one day I can be late watching Netflix” and not something face courtesy of Joanna who has just told comfortable in them. And lastly Art. Now like “I wonder what my life would be like if me to watch my head. You’d think that Art would be an amazing last class, except Michael Scott was my teacher” or “Wait after I had acquired a couple bumps on my I am so lost. Ms. Gillon thought I was such why don’t blue and black match.” I’d like to head I would learn to stop, drop, and roll an exceptional artist I skipped both say that those random thoughts end when when attempting to get away from the Introduction to Art and Art I and I’ve been I get to school. I’d like to say it. But, hectic locker situation. But no because I'm moved to Advance Art and apparently it’s usually, when I walk into class, my first constantly asking myself those hard frowned upon if, as an Advanced Artist, thought is, wait, wait, wait, when did you hitting questions during the time I need you can’t, oh, I don’t know, draw a straight tell us that we’d have a quiz today?

Wait wasn’t I supposed to constantly telling us to stop talking but some equally hard hitting questions like get something signed? Did I forget to the only talking I can hear is the talking in “How was your day” even though she bring my snack? Oh wait, I’m still taking a my head…oh now that I think about it I knows my answer will always be, "it was quiz. Wait, did I forget to order lunch? I might be talking out loud too…anyways by school". She also asks “How’d your test wonder if I would need lunch if I was a Latin I am in deep distress. I can’t even go?” and when even I didn't know I had unicorn? That would be pretty cool! Oh understand my own thoughts much less one. After I binge watch a season of The wait, what am I still doing here, the bell try to understand them in Latin. And then Office and eat everything in sight, I start just rang. My irrelevant thoughts are no I get to journalism, and in the midst of my homework at 11:30. That seems to better at the lockers. I constantly ask riveting NFL Fantasy Football league news work well. Then I sit in bed, wide awake, myself, “Wait why did Joanna and Anna I come here to write stories that no one listening to the voices in my head until I get middle lockers over me and Emily” or reads but I can never really put my fall asleep.
