Just Another Day at School

             The blinds let the dawn light get in and spy on you. From the other room, a radio tune desperately tries to lead some imperceptible sounds into your stiff mind.

Further on, you unconsciously quiver at the sight of thronged diplomas on both your sides. You feel the grandeur of the achievements and for a second or two you wonder about your place in the world.
             You are welcomed by friendly mates with whom you prate up to your History teacher's arrival. By now, you are wide awake and capable of taking in as much information as possible.

Visiting their former English teacher , a group of teenagers who study abroad are willing to share their exciting experience as international students. You look up to them.
