To class

Getting to my locker after lunch i put my phone and wallet back in the side pocket of my backpack. Opening my backpack and move a couple things I need for next couple classes to the side. Then I fold my shirt up that I started the day with and put that in my backpack and then I fold the towel and put that in my backpack. Then I put the stuff I took out and put that in my backpack. That way it will easier for the next couple classes that I don’t have to dig through my bag but also I will have everything so I can just leave after the last class. As squatting down like that gives me a bit more of a cameltoe so I make sure my shorts are unbuttoned and unzipped with the folds open and down.closing and locking my locker I head to next class As I am not delayed or late or anything today I can actually get to class no problem

As I get to class before the bell. “Well well well….welcome back to cooking class ms Sorenson “ Mr Harley the teacher says as I take my seat. “Thanks “ I say. “Just because you are one of the best chefs here doesn’t mean you can just skip class “ he says “but you actually have to attend class every so often to actually pass” he continues to say. “Yes sir “ I say. Which we have had this conversation many times before. Which usually turns into doing something at home and bringing it to school or every so often even doing something after school. But the after school class is rarely done unless a event is coming up and he needs help to get things done. As he knows I can cook like the best of them. So he knows who to call when he needs it. He writes something down on a piece of paper and hands it to me. “Can it be done “ he asks Which I look at the note and says “ chocolate upside down mouse cake with lace design on the side “ “Yes it can “ I say “by tomorrow?” I ask “yes” mr Harley says. “Ok” I say nodding my head. He heads towards the front of the class to begin class. While he is a stickler to the rules and hates when people show up late to class but he has a sweet tooth. Last time it was white chocolate filled croissants.

The bell rings. “Ok class in today’s class we are going to learn how to mix things correctly and not have it on the ceiling. Mr Johnson “ mr Harley says “yes sir sorry sir” the student says. “Ms Sorenson and Ms Sanders will be helping out today as they are in advanced level “ mr Harley says. “Find a apron and put it on then head to the kitchen “ mr Harley says. For cooking class we have two rooms attached to each other which one is the actual classroom with desks and the other is the kitchen area where there are four identical stations with the exact same equipment and set up. There is a oven, stove, sink, refrigerator, and a small table to prepare everything. Just like a kitchen at home.

After I get a apron on I wait as everyone else gets ready. “ How about a little friendly dare Cindy “April Sanders whispers to me. “What you have in mind April “ I whisper back. “ I saw you when we had the fire drill and you without those shorts “she whispers “not to mention that display you had with your girl” she whispers. Trying not to let my Harley catch us talking. “So what you are asking that I take my shorts off here too in class “ I whisper. “Unless your scared or I can just go to mr skinner and tell him about it” she whispers. She would too and I would get in trouble. “Ok fine “ I whisper. Watching to make sure no one is paying attention I pull my shorts down and off. Putting them on my backpack. Which you can tell from the backside that I am not wearing them but not from the front.

We start class in the kitchens and the three of us help the other students to properly mix things without making a mess. Which I notice April looking over every so often smiling. Working with mr Johnson in particular I am working to help him slow down a bit in his technique. He is not a bad student but just not good at cooking. Which this is not the first time we had to help him either. “You know I would like to impress Christine one day if I can ever improve my cooking “ he says. “Well I think she is already impressed even if you don’t cook” I say “probably but would be nice if I could help her when we get married “ he says. “Well you are doing pretty good but just making minor mistakes like going to fast”I say “like in this mix we are doing it needs to be done slowly….. like this “ I say as I am demonstrating how to do it. “Like this” he tries to follow what I am doing. “A little slower “ I say and he starts doing it more slowly “there you go “ I say “try to relax to do things right because this is not a race to get it done fast but to do it correctly “ I say. “Thanks Cindy as I do get nervous sometimes and when I do I tend to speed up “ he says. “Well there are relaxing techniques that can do “ I say “maybe talk to your counselor and see if they have any information that can help “ I continue saying. “Thanks I will ask before I leave school today “ he says.

Well 20 minutes before the end of class we start cleaning up and getting everything put away. When I get ready to take off my apron I realize I don’t have my shorts on. Which I was so focused on helping the students that I forgot I took them off Slipping over to my backpack I grab my shorts and put them on without buttoning or zipping them. Then I take my apron off putting it in the bin with the other aprons. Good thing too because there’s only 5 minutes before the bell.

When the bell rings I grab my backpack heading out the door.
