It was a crazy Monday morning. The start of a new school week consisted of assignments, tests, and quizzes were apart of a young high school student's life at Angel Grove High. Many of its students were at their lockers as they prepared for a long six-hour grueling school day. Kimberly and her friends stood by their lockers as they retrieved books from their locker.
The new week started off with many new things to anticipate for. However, as for the juniors of AGH, Kim and her friends were looking forward to fewer assignments given to them by their teacher Mr. Ford. Ford, who was known by many of the students as "Mr. Mean," wouldn't budge in passing his students, unless they worked very hard in his class.
It was another day, in another class.
As students scurried to their classrooms, many of the students scattered like ants to their destined classrooms. With that, Mr. Ford started his classroom lecture in sociology.
"Good morning," the tall bearded man said as he walked around the classroom, "today we're going to have several things to discuss about in this classroom." As the young man walked around, he noted that a project for the class to do.
The gang looked at each other as they listened attentively to the assignment. Tommy was dozing off in class after a long, grueling hour in homeroom. Kim nudged her boyfriend as he snored loudly. She shook her head as she took notes.
Rocky glanced over at his friend who was asleep, but managed to continue with note-taking. Aisha looked at her friends, then back at the board as they listened to their teacher.
"Mr. Oliver," the teacher said as he walked around, "would you like to be the first to volunteer yourself to this project?" The teacher walked up to the young man who was sound asleep, as he gently tapped him on the shoulder. Tommy looked up as he was startled by the older man's presence.
"I'm sorry, what was the question?" he asked as he yawned a little. The teacher groaned as he continued his lecture. Kim handed him her notebook with notes from the lecture as he gulped as he heard what was to be involved. "Sir?" Tommy raised his hand as he questioned the teacher.
The teacher pointed to his student's hand that was raised as he answered the question. He only hoped that the students were listening to his lecture and knew what they were going to for the project.
With four rows of students, papers were handed out with instructions on the project. As each of the gang received one, they each skimmed down to what was being given.
Sociology 101
Instructions: Partner up with another student in the class. As you partner up with that person, make sure you're either paired up with either a male or female in the class. In this project you will learn about the differences of gender and how it's portrayed. A six-page paper will be written on your learning and understanding of the concept. This paper will include who you chose and their being as that person. Due March 15, 1997 – No late papers will be accepted.
After reading the instructions aloud in class, the bell shortly rung as thirty juniors scurried to their lockers before another grueling class began. Tommy waited for Kim outside the hallway as he stretched a little.
"This project sounds like it'll be so much fun," Tanya said as she rested her head on Adam's shoulder, "I can't wait to see who's going to be paired off for this project." Adam smiled as he looked at his girlfriend. He and his best friend Rocky high-fived each other as they laughed a little at their sleepy friend.
"Kim, who you going to be paired off with?" Jason asked as he placed his sociology book in his school bag. Kimberly shrugged as she placed the assignment sheet into her pink folder. "I hope it's not me." He laughed a little as he greeted Emily at her locker.
"Tommy, who you are going to be paired with?" Kat asked her friend as she looked at him in wonderment. Her young friend shrugged as he placed his school book in his locker. Eventually, he looked over at Kim as he read over the assignment before placing it into his school bag.
"Hey Tommy, we should be partners Handsome," Kim said with a soft smile. Tommy nodded as he smiled back at her. He grinned as he retrieved his psychology and economics books from his locker. "This'll be interesting right?" He smirked a little.
"Definitely interesting Beautiful," he smiled. The two took each other by the hand as they left to go to their next class.
With their project under wraps, it was going to be one interesting project the two wouldn't forget.
