Comparison
Name 13 people you can think of right off the top of your head. Don't read the questions underneath.
Remember that? I did it a while ago, and now I'm doing it again, for comparison purposes (but mostly because I don't want to do homework). The new top 13:
1) Mario, still
2) Nyx, as always
3) Gretchen
4) Vicky
5) Genie
6) Kathrya
7) Shelby
8) Julie
9) Avon
10) Tybalt
11) Dino
12) Lysander
13) Bryant

Laugh uproariously.

Would you date Vicky?
Of course. You up for counties, dahling?
What do you think about Lysander?
He's nice enough, but his sheer awkwardness makes me nervous, and the fact that any of his friends thought that I should be set up with him is enough to make me panic, just because, well, I dunno, guys make me panic in general, and he's just so awkward!

Of course she loves me, she's my sister.

The Breakfast Club
- Andrew got detention because he attacked another boy and taped his butt together.
- Socially, I am a follower. When I’m with a group of friends, I rarely come up with ideas of what we should do. I’ll trail along after people rather than forging my own path. Also, even when I do want to try something on my own, I feel that need to bring a friend along with me, so that I don’t feel like I am exposing myself in any way.
- I think that although you could never find exact replicas of the students, I could definitely find basic outlines. I know plenty of brains, myself included. I know a kid who devotes hours of time to playing football despite the fact that he says he doesn’t even know why. I know a girl, slightly messed up, like Allison, who hates her parents. I’ve heard about a boy whose parents are awful and who has been smoking pot since sixth grade, and in a town with this much money, princesses are not difficult to locate. However, all of these students have their own depths and thoughts, as well as their own personal reasons for being the way they are. Also, there are plenty of students at Paperclip who, while fitting archetypes, would not click directly into those of the movie.
