You are so gonna fail. Those words followed me and others all through school. Mainly Chemistry. You are so gonna fail. Answer a question wrong that would be the next thing said to you by your friends sitting next to you. It was alright though. It made us laugh at ourselves and never take ourselves seriously. Can you imagine what would happen if I cared whether I always had the right answer? I would have become so uptight I would have failed for real. But I didn't fail. At least not yet. There are only a few weeks left here at this school for me and even though I want it to be over so I can see my grades, I am sad to leave.

That's because you are a loser. I guess we just aren't good enough for you. Our dork factor isn't big enough.

LAYAH
Very funny.

TILL
Thanks.

So where to next? Isn't that a question we ask ourselves every day? How about almost every time we finish a task during the day? Do I go on to the project looming before me or do I get lost surfing on the web and lose three hours of my day.

BOTH
The internet.

E-mail is always the start. Then of course I have to answer.

That's because you're a loser.

And what about you? You are checking art pages.

LAYAH
I like to see what is new.

Get a life and get some e-mail messages.

LAYAH
E-mail me and I might.
