So, you decide that you might as well try to get help from your English professor.
So, you begin your journey over to her desk. You pass by loose hairs, dust piles, and other nasty floor items. It's about a good minute before you finally make it to her desk. You stop for a second to catch your breath from all the walking and running you did to get over to her desk.
Looking up you see Mrs. Crittenden as she continues grading exams. She has no idea that you're there at all. And now you figure that you need to find a way to get her attention.
And after a moment of thought you realize that the best way to get her attention would be to find way to get up onto her desk. So, you look around the area of the desk and see little notch's in the metal and wooden parts that lead all the way up to the top of her desk.
Since its a bit of a climb you are going to have to use your hands as well as your feet and body weight to get yourself up there. And As you start to pull yourself up you wince in pain at just how much climbing you actually have to do. But you don't let that lazy thought get to you as you stagger through the climb. In till you finally make it up to the top of the desk.
Mrs. Crittenden is just lost in her own little world as she is going through each exam question and grading them. This gives you time to think about how you should handle this. And once you think that have come up with a good approach to her, you hear from behind you "Hey, how's the grading going?".
Turning around you see a tall man who you assume is another English professor at this school. He leans against the doorway as he waits for Mrs. Crittenden to answer. In which you hear her say "Ugh, it's going... there's just so much here". The man then responds by saying "Oh I know what you mean exam week is the worst. But hey me and a few others are going to grab some food from the cafeteria. You wanna come?".
This makes Mrs. Crittenden spring up from her chair as she says with a smile on her face "Absolutely I need a break from all this". You then watch as she and the man walk out of the office. Leaving you alone in Mrs. Crittenden's office.
You don't really know what to do now. And seeing that she probably won't come back for a while you decide to take a pause to look around some more from the top of the desk. As you look around you realize the office is filled with books. You also notice some small windows high up that let in just enough sunlight to keep the room from being too dark.
As you look around some more, you see in front of you the giant paper exam's. There has to be a good amount of them spread across the desk and some on the floor. And as you approach the exams you begin to think about how basically didn't even take your exam and probably don't have a believable excuse if you ever get big again.
Thinking about that you turn your attention towards Mrs. Crittenden's computer. You can see that she either forgot or didn't care that she left the exam grading site up on her computer. Looking at the screen you see the list of names followed by I.D numbers and other info that leads to there final grade. And you stop as you see your name which is just after the person's name who just got graded.
You then have a dark thought of entering your own grade. Thinking that she probably won't remember that she didn't enter your grade in yet. And I mean it is a little unfair that this shrinking thing happen to you and you weren't able to actually do the exam.
This leads you to convincing yourself that entering your own grade into the system is just a fair thing to do. So, you then rush over to the mouse, But you realize quickly that this is going to be a tough task for you. As the mouse is decently heavy to you now and your just barley able to move it. But you manage to go back and forth between the keyboard and mouse to get it into the right area for where you can enter your grade.
And while doing this you try to ignore the outside sounds of shoe's and heel's hitting the floor. Thinking that Mrs. Crittenden should be gone for a good hour. And none of those sounds should be of people heading to enter this room.
You finally get the mouse clicked on the area to enter your grade. And as you tiredly make your way over to the keyboard. Climbing on top of it. You hear a heel hitting the tile right outside of Mrs. Crittenden's office.
