LOTF Intro in Class

       When Dr. D first said get on the floor without your binders, you could tell our class was excited.  Maybe a little too excited.  She warned us that even though we didn't have our stuff, we still had to work, but our class kind of took that warning lightly.  We started off in chaos.  Everyone was talking over each other trying to come up with a plan.  Somehow, we came to an agreement that we need a leader(s), and we tried to complete the task of choosing them.  Still, we were talking over each other, and we tried to vote a couple of times, but that didn't work.   Then, Aaron got a stapler, and it was named the talking stapler.  Finally, our savior.  Or so we thought.  Sadly, the talking stapler didn't really work, and we were back to square one: no leaders, and no plan.  Every one was annoyed, and we were all blaming each other.  A group succeeded from our island nation, and I'm not really sure what they did after that.  Then the rest of the boys and girls divided, and it seemed like the boys were going hunt for food and look for water.  The girls, still trying to gain control, were hopeless, and figured we should make housing and watch the kids.
       Now, all of these plans were not finalized, so if this was real, I'm not sure if these tasks would be carried out.  Our island nation would probably be divided in some way- the boys doing their thing on one side, and the girls on the other.  Would the boys really come to our aid and bring back food?  That is a question that may never be answered.  Eventually, I think they would have realized they needed us and that we needed them, and we would have worked together.
