"Welcome back class." Miss.Benson smiled "I have an amazing project for you this term. People."
People? That was our 'amazing' project?
"This term, we'll be focusing on photography. You'll be taking pictures obviously, of people. Not just anyone. You have to take many pictures and make them artistic of someone totally different than yourself. In the end we will all show our many pictures and hopefully, understand that persons life. It won't be easy." She carried on.
This project was going to be a complete fail. How the hell was I going to spend a whole term looking into someone else's life when not one person will speak to me? I can't fail this class. This class is the one that's going to get me into college and get me into the professional jobs I want to take.
"It's going to be a challenge I am sure. But I believe you can do it. This week's project is 'The Candidate'. This week you will pick who you want to base this project on and you'll take a very simple picture of them and show it to the class. I'm going to allow you to start your thinking in this class. Any questions?" Miss.Benson asked.
I raised my hand, "How important is this project?"
"The most important project this year." She grinned.
I rolled my eyes. I had to accept it. I had to accept that I was going to fail this project. I had no one to pick as my candidate. Of course I had people in mind but its not as if they would speak to me is it? I'm Art Girl. I'm the outsider. I'm the one they try to avoid talking to at all costs unless it's to get answers for a test or to mock me for their own pleasure. What was I going to do? This project wasn't for me. Being the stubborn bitch Miss.Benson is, she'll never change a project for anyone. Let alone me. It's the truth, I'm fucked.
"Can this person be a family member or something?" A student asks, bringing me back from my thoughts.
"I have thought extremely hard about this and my answer is no. I would like you to use someone from this school as your candidate." Miss smiled.
Great. That makes it even fucking better. I don't even have a choice on whether to use a family member or not. Could this project get any worse?
"I would like a photo of your candidate by Friday's lesson. Label it 'Project People' and then your candidates name. At the end of the term, I will choose the best photographer and they will get a recommendation to a college of their choice."
I of course do have one person in mind. But he would never even lay eyes on me. He played football and was a music guy, I was just a girl at the bottom of the school hierarchy who liked to draw and take photos. He was the one I needed to get into college. He was the one I needed to carry on doing what I'm doing.
Calum Hood. You're going to be my project, whether you like it or not.
