Body Art For Nerds

Heading to my locker on Friday, I subconsciously look at my hand to see what homework I have for the weekend. Scribbled in pen I find the words:

·        Turnitin.com

·        Blog

·        Anatomy

·        AP Bio packet

·        Current Events

Now that I think about it, I really don’t know why I wrote these out on the back of my hand. I mean I have a planner, and I actually write stuff in it. I guess it’s just easier to scan my hand while picking through my locker. But when I really think about it, it’s not just me who does this. Especially when something it due on turnitin.com or we need to bring in money for a new book in AP English several hands are decorated with scribbled reminders. It’s almost like a gang sign for AP English, yes our very own body art for nerds desperately trying to remember every assignment. I think that this also shows just how driven we are to succeed, to the point that we will start writing on ourselves with whatever we can find at the moment just to make sure all assignments are accounted for.
