Thirteen Ways Of Sitting In The Classroom
April 22, 2015 By: Chengyu Huang

1.
Thirty four students sitting in the classroom
The only one who was standing
Was the beautiful professor.
2.
I was out of my mind.
Like a sculpture
In which there are people talking and laughing.
3.
My eye lids fold
My mouth couldn’t help opening.
4.
The girl sits right to me
Folds feet on the chair.
The girl sits left to me
Head buried in her arms on the table.
5.
I don’t know who I should talk to
The words stuck in my throat
6.
A boy who sits in the left corner
Fold his arms
With a pen in his mouth
Staring at the blackboard.
7.
Oh, a sweet voice
A girl in hot pink stood up
Flipping her arms in the air
Cheering happily.
8.
However
The boy sit next to her
Eyes opened widely.
Curiously?
Seriously!
9.
The clock on the wall
Hanging without motion.
Time flowed deadly.
10.
Restless
Uneasy
Anxious
11.
At the sight of the class
Powerful and energetic professor
Weak and exhausted students.
12.
She wanted to escape
He couldn’t stay there still.
One second was like forever
And ever…
13.
Ohhhh, hands in the air
Bell rang.
