Developing Your Personal Style, Thursday, Period 1

"Hey, guys!" Petra said cheerfully once everyone had gathered in the classroom. "So, most of you probably already know me, but for those of you that don't, I'm Petra and I just graduated, so, none of this 'Miss West' or anything, I'm not old enough. Just Petra. And this is Developing Your Personal Style. I want to apologize for class not meeting last week, LJ was being a dick I had something come up." 'Something' being a conference call with her lawyer and the other Teen Dreamers that ran waaaaaaaaaaay over. Lots of shouting. Lots of it. "It won't happen again, I promise, but if I do have to break that promise, it's okay, because you have two fabulous TAs, Minako Aino and Kenzi...um, Kenzi, I can't read your last name. Whatever. Minako and Kenzi! Your TAs!

"Moving right along, last week I would have had everyone introduce themselves, so we're still going to do that. I want your name, year, and three words that you think describe your style. And then we're going to refine that by defining our personal aesthetic. I know that sounds really technical, but don't freak out." Petra bent down to pick up one enormous bin, then another, and place them on her desk. One was full of fashion magazines, the other, assorted fabric remnants, bits of trim, accessories, feathers, that kind of thing. "We're going to be making collages!" she said enthusiastically. "Using materials that relate to how you see your style and how you would like to see your style. And then if you would like to, you can explain to the rest of the group how you chose the elements you did. Okay? Okay!"

The easy thing to do would be to say yes, but Zhari had been out slightly too often to make that a possible thing to do. She shook she head. "No, just...not really sociable. Especially after stuff like the dungeons and whatall."

Zhari had been so busy trying to explain that she wasn't new, that she'd lost sight of why Petra had asked in the first place and also because I fail at reading comprehension and had answered the unasked question, d'oh!.

But talking to the office? That might be baaaad, yes. Bad for Zhari and her sister, anyway. "I have this problem in another class, so I was going to speak to them myself?" she tried. "I'll mention both classes and have them look into it. This is dreadfully irritating to deal with, I know."

No worries, Petra! Zhari will pretend to take care of it, really!

"But I've been really looking forward to this class, so I hope you'll let me stay until it's all straightened out?"
