Susan Schneider is a prime example of a champion snob. The kind of girl that everybody loves to hate. She's cute, funny, and most notably, she,s BookSmart! There's only one thing wrong with this pretty picture. She's a real social butterfly. What's wrong with that? Nothing, except that it's never the right time for me to catch up to her and say "hi,"
If she's always so busy, how are we supposed to have a chance to meet her? Stop being a coward and think of an icebreaker. An icebreaker? Something funny to say. Hi Susan, I heard you were a smart cookie, wanna share one? Don't be a jerk. The whole school is being challenged to improve on our study habits. Susan's our math wizard and she's taking us to the local tv quiz bowl. The two students with the highest GPA are the team contestants. Those of us in their classes got invited on a field trip to sit in the studio audience and watch the competition live, and on the air.
Who has the second highest GPA? Your guess is as good as mine. I'm not in any of Susan's classes. Do some sleuthing and find out who the second is. Mrs. Birchtree can I have a hallway pass to the school guidance counselor? Be sure to report back here when your're done.
Mr. Poole, can you tell me who has the second highest GPA? I'm not getting a ticket to the studio taping of the tv quiz bowl. School will be open and we'll all watch if from here. The student with the second highest GPA is Xi Youngman. He's a foreign transfer student from China. He speaks English pretty well. Do you know if he's in any of my classes? It doesn't look like it. How am I going to get on the school bus without them knowing it? I'll study extra hard and get all A's before then and then I'll plead my case.
Hi Susan, I'm Bob Bentley. I've seen you around the school and I've been waiting to introduce myself and say congratulations on winning the ticket to the quiz bowl. I've been studying enough to score some A's. Unfortunately, I'm not in any of your classes, so good luck at the tournament.
What up Xi Youngman? I'm Bob Bentley. I heard that you are going to be on the quiz bowl. Keep up the good work, you're an inspiration for average students like me. Unfortunately, I'm not in any of your classes so I won't be at the tournament to root you on. Good luck and bring home the winning trophy.
Susan and Xi, is there anyone other than your classmates who you would like to invite to the quiz bowl.
Bob Bentley!
That's funny how you both mentioned his name.
