Walking down the hall like a zombie, you wonder how you’re gonna make it through six classes without falling asleep. Once the locker is open, you fish out your books from amongst the magazine cutouts of the latest video hits. Someone touches your shoulder. Hey, did you go to the concert last Night?? I would have given anything to have gone!! How was it?” “Awesome,” is all you need to say.
