  • how you're busy in class doing the homework assigned for tonight
    • but somehow you're still paying attention to the lecture and notes
  • how you call out the answer when it's not your turn and, even though the teachers find it irritating, you're always right
  • when you let your hair grow out a little bit and it's not so close to your head so it balances out your face
