THAT WAY, YOU CAN BUMP INTO HER AND SAY HI.
COMPLIMENT HER HAIR, AND THE NEXT TIME YOU RUN INTO HER, SAY, "HEY, DID YOU CHANGE YOUR HAIR?" PRETTY SOON, YOU'LL H YOU'LL HAVE TONS OFSTUFF TO TALK ABOUT.
GOOD IDEA.
AND JOIN ALL HER AFTER-SCHOOL CLUBS.
A--YOU'LL GE TO SEE HER MORE.
B--YOU'LL GET TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT HER INTERESTS, AND PRETEND THEY'RE YOUR INTERESTS, TOO.
THAT MAKES SENSE.
AND C-- VERY IMPORTANT.
YOU CAN MAKE SURE SHE'S NOT FALLING IN LOVE WITH ANYONE ELSE, LIKE YOUR FRIEND BILL.
YOU THINK CINDY'LL FALL IN LOVE WITH BILL?! I DON'T KNOW.
BEING LAB PARTNERS IS LIKE GETTING STRANDED ON A DESERT ISLAND.
YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN.
HEY, MAN, I HEARD KIM GO AN "A" ON HER WORLD CIV TEST.

OHH! I HEARD KIM PUNCHED YOU IN THE CHES REALLY HARD.
OH, WHOOPS.
THAT WAS ME! OHH! AAH! THAT WAS REALLY HARD.
I'M TELLING YOU, SHE'S ABNORMAL.
SHE EATS CARROT STICKS, AND SHE LIKES MISS PIGGY.
SO WHAT? THE MUPPETS ARE COOL.
YEAH, SWEDISH CHEF IS KINDA COOL, BUT MISS PIGGY'S LAME.
LOOK, PROFESSOR HONEYWELL IS HYSTERICAL.
CINDY IS NOT ABNORMAL.
YEAH? SHE CU THE CHEESE.
OOH, MY GOD! THAT'S NOT FUNNY.
I HEARD IT, MAN.
I SWEAR.
SHE BLAMED I ON THE CHAIR, BUT SHE CUT THE CHEESE.
WELL, SOME CHAIRS MAKE WEIRD NOISES! WHAT KIND OF A CHAIR WAS IT? I DON'T KNOW.
VINYL? WELL, VINYL CHAIRS ALWAYS SQUEAK.
IT WASN'T A SQUEAK.
IT WAS THE SOUND OF CHEESE BEING CUT.
[GIGGLES.]
YOU KNOW WHAT? I THINK YOU'RE MAKING ALL OF THIS UP BECAUSE YOU WANT ME TO STOP LIKING HER BECAUSE YOU LIKE HER NOW.
WHAT?! Cindy: BILL? HEY, GUYS, WHAT'S UP? OH, HI, CINDY.
YOU CHANGED YOUR HAIR.
IT JUST LOOKS REALLY FLAT TODAY.
OH, BILL, I WANTED TO TELL YOU.

AND IF IT WERE A RACE, MILLIE ALREADY BEAT YOU.
[WHISPERING.]

Why? I just do.
Yes.
REMEMBER WHEN WE USED TO LOVE LEIF GARRET AND WE USED TO TAKE MY DYNAMITEMAGAZINES OU AND KISS HIS PICTURE? YEAH.
AND WE WENT TO SEE HIM AT THE STATE FAIR AND CUT ALL THE WAY TO THE FRONT ROW.
IT TURNED OUT TO BE JACK ALBERTSON FROM CHICO AND THE MAN.
OH, YEAH.
THAT KINDA SUCKED.
IT WASN'T SO BAD.
IT WAS KINDA FUNNY.
MILLIE, I'M JUS SAYING THAT WE ALWAYS DREAMED OF HAVING A BOYFRIEND, AND I THINK I FINALLY HAVE A BOYFRIEND, AND--AND I THINK HE WANTS TO HAVE SEX.
YOU CAN'T HAVE SEX WITH NICK.
ONCE YOU DO, YOU'LL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN.
PLUS NO ONE WOULD WANT TO MARRY YOU.
WHY SHOULD THEY BUY THE COW WHEN THEY CAN GE THE MILK FOR FREE? SOME OF YOU WILL BE HAPPY TO SEE THAT, I HAVE AFTER SEVERAL COMPLAINTS, ELIMINATED "DISCO DAYS" FROM THE RUNNING.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
Teacher: WHO'S GOT PHOTOGRAPHS? HEY, CINDY.
Teacher: OK.
HEY, SAM.

"AIMLESS YOUTH, ALL TRAPPED TOGETHER, "BUT NO ONE CONNECTING.
"EDUCATION OR ISOLATION? CLASS DISMISSED.
" Mainzer: OK.
THANK YOU, SYLVIA PLATH.
UHIT'S IT'S A LITTLE DARK.
WE WAN TO SELL YEARBOOKS, NOT TELL THE TRUTH.
OK.
IT WAS JUST AN IDEA.
OK.
THE NEXT THING WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT IS AD SALES.
[STUDENTS GROAN.]
YES, I KNOW.
IT'S NO FUN.
IT'S NOT CREATIVE, BUT IF WE DON' SELL THE REST OF THIS AD SPACE BY TOMORROW, WE WON'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY FOR PRINTING.
HERE'S A LIS OF THE LOCAL MERCHANTS UM.
.
WE HAVEN'T HIT YET.
.
MY DAD OWNS A-1 SPORTING GOODS.

I THINK IT WAS REALLY COOL.
MR.
MAINZER DOESN'T KNOW WHA HE'S TALKING ABOUT.
THANKS.
AND YOU KNOW, YOU'RE RIGHT.
BEING A FRESHMAN STINKS.
I KNOW, IT'S LIKE EVERYONE PIGEONHOLES YOU AND EXPECTS YOU TO ACT A CERTAIN WAY.
IT'S LIKE IF YOU'RE A CHEERLEADER, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE IN A GOOD MOOD ALL THE TIME.
YEAH, THA MUST BE TOUGH.
I KNOW! IT'S LIKE THERE ARE SOME DAYS WHEN I'M JUST FEELING A LITTLE BIT CRANKY.
LIKE TODAY.
I JUST GOT MY PERIOD.
SO WHAT? DEAL WITH IT.
ALL RIGHT, THANKS, MIKE.
