The Perks of Being a Cuban.

JUG, short for Justice Under God is my school's fancy way of saying... detention! It is a useless period of 40 minutes where you sit up straight ( or as straight as possible) in quiet. While some students may see it as a teribble inconvenience, I find it to be a great way to start my day. I recieved 5 JUGs for forgetting to bring back a form. And in JUG, I have started to write a book in my head. The problem is, i keep forgetting everything I write about in my head and start over every day. I believe one title of one of my short stories in my head was "Pale Waspy English Teacher with the Bright Scarves!" I wish I knew how that one went, as I remember it was quite hot, and illegal in most countries. The original preface was about my wanting to write a book since I was 7, wanting to be the youngest author ever to be published. I'm sure however, that somewhere there is already a 7 yr-old published author. Not because he or she were a gifted child, a prodigy... but I'm sure the book sold well based on the cute-factor and the oh so easy marketing strategy. By the age of 12 the book I wanted to write had a basic plotline, a woman goes to ride the subway, she meets a Hobo... fall sin love with him... he dies of an STD and she spends the rest of her life living on the subway where he used to live. It makes a good SNL skit and was not going to be a serious love story by any means, but I think it would be too uninteresting to write about. Now, I am rather plotless, There is of course a love triangle between a student and 2 very different teachers however, both of which teach Spanish.
