Intro to 21st Century American Culture - Monday - Fifth Period

As the students enter the room, they will notice that there are a number of listening stations set up along one side and a microphone and karaoke machine set up in the front.

Once everyone is present and seated, Lorelai grins.

"I hope you all had a great Fall Break. Thanks again to Marty for covering the last class, I hope you all learned something and had a good time. We're going to be switching gears away from television and covering music for the next few weeks before moving to books and movies. I'll also have information for you in the next week or so about your final projects."

She passes out a handout as she continues. "We're going to start with one of my personal favorite decades of music, the 80s. That's the 1980s for those of you from other times. In my personal opinion, nothing will ever come close to topping 80s music. Today, I want you to spend the first part of the class period listening to some 80s music at one of the listening stations. Then, you're each going to pick a song and perform for us! If there aren't any questions, let's get started."

"Don't you want to have fun?" Marty pleaded.

She stares at him. "How is that fun?"

"It's cutting loose! Feeling free! Enjoying the moment!" Marty said in a pleading way. "Plus? I'll never call you Princess Folder helmet again."

The glare Aeryn shoots him? It's not a happy one. Not that there are happy glares, but if there were, this one would not count as such.

"What? I thought that would make you happy. Don't you want to be happy Aeryn?"

"This is probably not a subject area you want to head into," she warns.

Re: Sing!

"What? You have issues with being happy?"

Re: Sing!

[can_be_more]

She sighs. "You're not getting me to sing."

Marty pouts cutely.

And Aeryn's still in her seat, not singing.
