so her name was Elizabeth. She's almost as tall as I am, but certainly she looks prettier under a slight makeup. Just like most of we asians do, she and I both stood in our corners and looked cautiously.
I didn't give her a glance because she was not revealing a friendly look.
According to her pieces of artwork, she's pretty much a tech person. Undoubtedly, her photographs were gorgeous. They were absolutely taken from a different perspective mixed with a little element of Asia culture. She purposely took two photo shots of the same objects and, perhaps, modified a little by photoshop.
Some of them are hilarious because she served them in other purposes besides a beautiful picture.
Many of the current VAs were attracted by her works and gave her lots of compliments. I, too walked by her stand and stopped for a long time.

The VA photographer started to walk around, he as far as I know was responsible for snapshotting all the interviewees and their "name tags."
There was an awkward moment when he came by my stand and asked me for holding my name tag with me. I didn't really know whether I should smile or give the camera an emotionless look.
I smiled at last, but it was a involuntary one since I wasn't ready for the shoot at all.

He then wandered away, and Zac came up to me.
In his very timid way, he asked me which one of my works am I gonna get up. Then he told me his favorite among my works. (It was a weird one! but lots of american said the same thing)
He glanced at my Van Gogh chair then said, "That's totally a Van Gogh painting," I was thinking, omg! good one! "he's one of my favorite artists :)"
I laughed, because we were so similar...

So another boredom flowed into me and I just stood there and tried to fabricate anything, just anything I could talk about my piece..... (shouldn't really use the word "fabricate" ..but that's what happened and that's the reason led to my failure..)

Mr. Shelnutt had finally spoken; he gathered every interviewee and guided us to sit in the first row of chairs, and then parents at the back.
YEAH, right..just like I thought, he started his conversable introduction.
And blah~and blah~ blahblahblah.....during this introduction, I figured it out:

1. 11 in-stake students are in the room
2. The school actually needs more out-of-stake students since the majority of the funds come
from the government
