untitled

A dark and dreary classroom in one corner of a weirdly constructed college.

Fifty six 'bored-out-of-their-minds' students sitting on fifty six extremely uncomfortable stools.

One overly enthusiastic professor who seems to be wearing a shirt meant for a 19 year old roadside romeo.

One twenty year old who is wearing pink barrettes meant for 5 year olds.

The Indian equivalent of a dumb blonde who is clearly amused with the animated way that she's twirling her hair.

The class clown trying very hard to keep his eyelids from completely shutting.

One new couple making goo goo eyes at each other across the room.

The class suck up busy nodding her head away, to every word, the man who's wearing the shirt meant for a 19 year old says.

Fifteen students who have their eyes fixed on a single point on the white board at the front of the class.

The girl with the dupatta wrapped tightly around her neck, trying to hide the insane number of hickeys that she currently possesses.

And the innocent little blogger trying to weasel a post out of herself, making the best out of an exceptionally humdrum class.

You know we have a poem in English which talks about this thing. Of course that's a sad poem about some roadside dwellers in a classroom but yours is way cooler, and interesting.

Too bad I don't think we'll have anymore classes at school or else I would have written one about how time pauses in our Math class.

Haha, the classes I recall best are the last couple of extra classes we had before the boards, we'd align all the desks and squeeze our chairs together, sitting almost on each other to keep warm. Especially the two idiots in flip flops. Both were guys.

Oh oh oh. I know the kinda classes you mean. I've taken to getting through my insane amount of german homework in such classes, so I can feel that I did *something* constructive... :P
