Human Anatomy, Thursday, 01/11, Period 3

Elliot looked like she was halfway between bouncing and running away in terror as she started her first class of the semester, and she kept wiping her hands on her slacks as if her palms were sweaty.

"Hi, people, welcome to human anatomy, which is the study of structures and systems of the human body,. If you didn't sign up for anatomy, you're in the wrong place. If you stick around without registering? You're volunteering to be dissected.

"I am Elliot Reid, which yes is a guys' name. Blame my dad. Call me Elliot or Dr. Reid. Doing the E.T. voice on Elliot will freak me out and earn you a detention. But basically, it's pretty easy not to get a detention in here - show up on time, don't miss more than three classes without letting me know, and don't be incredibly hugely obnoxious, and you're golden.

"I am passing around a couple of things. First, you have textbooks, which are yours to keep and love and put under your pillow. Second is my voice mail number. Call whenever. I'm also in my office Friday mornings, if you need me outside of class.You're also getting the class roster and syllabus. Syllabus is a guideline, not a rule -- it can change. Finally, my TA is John Dorian, so if you can't find me for something, talk to him."

Done with the preliminaries, she pointed to an area behind the rows of desks where seven-foot stretches of paper were taped to the floor, with buckets of markets between them. "To help make this class more visual, you're going to pair up and trace each other, and then we'll tape the drawings to the wall to fill in the body systems on as we learn them. But before you do that, I want to do some introductions. Say your name, your grade, and two interesting things about yourself. Starting with .... you." She closed her eyes and pointed randomly into the group.

Tannim took the marker and gestured for Ray to lay down.

Ray took his position comfortably on the floor.

Tannim knelt beside Ray and traced around him, being careful not to actually touch him anywhere weird because hi, just met the guy.

"This is certainly a step up from just tracing my hand," Ray said idly.

"Little harder to make a turkey out of this tracing," Tannim said, finishing up the outline.

"Am I work of art?" Ray quipped before moving.

"Gotta add some color first," Tannim said.

"Red brings out my skin," he joked lightly.

"Should be plenty of red, if we're drawing our insides," Tannim smiled. "Where are we supposed to hang these up?"
