Familiar Scenes by Chandra Hanson As I approach the doorway of the study hall room, I already know what I’ll see; the usual, but peculiar occurrances of our student body. In the corner, a guy suffering from extreme mental deficiency sits staring blankly out into space. His dad just offered him a car in exchange for good grades. — What type will I get? — To his right, a girl is pondering equations which seem completely impossible to master by test time tomorrow. She knows, however, if she doesn't get a C or better there goes her chance of lettering on the varsity team as a freshman. — Should I ask the brain of geometry to tutor me? — Across the room, the next Jon BonJovi is jamming to the newest tunes on his walkman. His only concern is whether he'll be in the starting line-up or not. — Should I mouth off to the coach tonight in practice? — Next to him, a studious, prudent scholar sits turning red-in-the-face with anger trying to get Jon to turn down his tunes. She has a horrid history exam and an English quizzie to mull over. — Maybe I should have asked my next door neighbor to lend some help in reviewing. She was born with this knowledge implanted in her brain. How fortunate!! Oh, yes, this is my study hall. Without these familiar scenes, I wouldn't believe I was even in the right place. Is any of this familiar to you?!? Shawn Anderson concentrates intently on an assignment.
