How well do I know my neighbor? "Well that's a dish best served cold," as my seat partner Ania, no Anya, would probably never say. I cannot express the joy I feel in English class next to Anya, except that it is better than the mundane, sub par dish of sarcasm the teachers of Henry Clay try to serve.
Sitting next to another person is always interesting, especially when they are Anya Slepyan. She's practically a cheat sheet for any vocab quiz (not that I would cheat, of course). As one of the most intelligible people I know, she can also be very energetic and eager to share the first thing that comes to her mind. There's nothing negative to say about the poncho-wearing Anya, except maybe her goldfish addiction, which could be absolved if she simply gave them all to me.
There are many ways to characterize Ms. Slepyan, but if I did so through a color, it would be light blue because she's calm yet energetic. and one of the smartest people around. In five years, I'd say she'll still be in college studying to be the president of the Universe or doing some smartsy, Anya stuff.
