Emily Dickinson High School

Sometimes the "lit life" seems a retread of high school--there are various cliques (the stoners, geeks, jocks, criminals and prisses) and a spectrum of experiences varying from hormonal ecstasy to shuddering boredom. Sometimes your readings are like the prom, and sometimes like a bad night at the AV club. Everyone wants an "A" on their project and we're all avoiding that weird gym teacher with the crooked smile.

A bad night @ the AV club beats the prom any day. But you still have to wear a corset.
