The Art of Laziness; Tuesday, Second Period [07/04].
"Webster's dictionary--" Did Shunsui think it was hilarious to start his class with a nearly textbook lazy way to start any speech or lecture? Yes. Yes, he did, "--defines the word lazy as mean 'disinclined to activity or exertion : not energetic or vigorous' &hearts. 'Encouraging inactivity or indolence, moving slowly, not rigerous or strict.' But I," here he flashed the students a smile, "define it as an art ♥."
Thus the name of the class! Shunsui gave the class, gathered, as always for these things in the summer, in the park, under the tree by the pond, with pot of tea to share...if anyone could be bothered to pour from it, anyway. He did gesture toward it, though, with a lift waft of his hand.
"Please," he said, "help yourself to some tea and we shall get started ♥. Today will, in the tradition of first days for classes, be remarkably lazy, with the laziest of all lesson plans to lead the way: the introduction class, of course ♥. Now, in the philosophy of the class, it is important to point out that just because something, like an introduction class, is lazy, that does not mean it is necessarily useless. Introducing ourselves to each other plays an important role in familiarizing yourself with your classmates, and perhaps even some new friends, neh ♥? So I'm sure you all know the drill by now: let us know who you are, perhaps why you were interested in learning about the Art of Laziness in the first place, and let's say your favorite lazy-day activity. And when we're finished, we can just whittle away the minutes left in the class period by enjoying the day and watching the ducks and appreciating the luxury of being far lazier than them as they swim and dive and flutter about ♥."
