Starting a Small Business

Okay class - here goes.

Last week I told you to pick a partner and decide on a business. We've had a few more students join the class.

This week, we're going to introduce ourselves and you're going to tell me what kind of business you and your partner are going to create for class.

By the way - this class is strictly pass/fail. If you show up and do the work, you pass. If you miss classes or don't do the work, you fail. And tje decision is going to be made based on your team - not on you as an individual. So if you picked a slacker partner, you better be prepared to pick up the slack.

For those of you who don't know me - I'm Lorelai Gilmore-Danes. I own the Dragonfly Inn in Stars Hollow, CT with my best friend Sookie. We may take a field trip to the inn as part of this class, assuming I can get permission from [livejournal.com profile] principalconnor to take you off school grounds.

I started working at an inn as a maid when I was 17. I worked my way up the ladder, met Sookie (who's a chef) and we decided to buy our own inn. We've only been open for about six months, but things are going really well so far, which is amazing considering the whole Kirk-running-naked-through-the-inn at the Grand Opening and Sookie's clumsiness almost setting fire to the kitchen twice.

Anyway... please, introduce yourselves and tell me what kind of business you plan to create.


[OOC: 1. All Lorelai's classes are slow played because the mun is too busy for more (and is playing two other characters).
2. For those of you who aren't familiar with Gilmore Girls, Lor is a bit of a flake at times and tends to go off on tangents. She's also a pop culture guru.
3. Having Veronica & Lilly in this class is going to be OH SO AMUSING since they haven't run across each other as of yet.]

"Not like, Casper the Friendly. I just thought that everyone at this school was... oh God, you're normal too, aren't you? I just assumed that you had magical powers, or that you were from outer space, or something like that. But you're not. I'm sorry, Allie. I'm so sorry, I would have told you."

Allie is in deep shock. She's never run across ghosts or other supernatural beings. Then again, why would they hang out in New Jersey?

She takes a deep breath and regards the first friend she's made at her new school.

"Its okay, Lilly. It... well... surprised me... but I guess after some of the things I've heard about going on here, you being dead is the least of my concerns."

She offers a tentative smile.

"Thanks Al, you're the best, seriously. Do you want to go home now? I'm kind of burnt. I could use a cocktail and a hot bath."

Allie glances at the teacher, who is engrossed in some entertainment magazine.

"Sure," she says with a shrug. "My partner abandoned me anyway."

"Yeah, what was that girl's problem?"

Lilly grabs Allie's hand, and squeezes it lightly.

"Thanks for being here, Allie. Now, let's blow this popsicle stand."

She guides Allie to the door, a soft smile on her face, her cheeks still streaked with a few tears.

Anya gets an annoyed look on her face. "Did I just turn invisible?" she asks herself out loud.

mutters to herself, "Pfft, dead people. Think the world revolves around them or something just because they've faced their own mortality."
