Click, click, click (the school clock). We were supposed to be reading the instructions for an experiment we were going to perform in class that day. Now there’s another stupid thing. Year after year, this same teacher makes his students perform the same experiments. Well, if the experiments have been done so many times before, how can they still be experiments? The teacher knows what is going to happen. I thought experimenting meant trying new things to see what would happen. We weren’t experimenting at all. We were playacting.
