Christine was just a girl in my class. I  never knew much about her except for that she was
strange. She didn’t talk many. Her hair was black and purple, and she worn black sports shoes and a
blacksweater, although  in the summer. She was, in fact, rather attractively, and she never seemed care
what the rest of us thought about  her like the rest of my classmate, I didn’t really want to get closest to
her. It was only when we did their chemistry project  together that I begin to understand why christine
dressed the way she did.
