The Resume

The Professor settles in and says, “Let’s go around the circle and introduce ourselves” We listen to resume after resume of unbridled accomplishment. Then he points to me. “Hi, I’m Anais, I’m a freshman, from Georgia, and I have mad skills. I can b*tch about anything or feign complete indifference. I can give the impression of depth or play the ditz. I can pick the slowest line every time and I’m so good at sleeping I can do it with my eyes closed.” I finish and give the professor a head tilted “anything else?” look. “Uhh,” He gives me an amused look, “thank you Anais,” “Next.” I’m in an an environment where pretentiousness can run amuck . . PS, I have short stories too. =]
