As Josef faced the window, looking out into the cold and bleak world of snow, the first period teacher, only known as Mr. Math, started the usual routine of taking attendance. As he spoke into a handheld microphone so he could be heard across the noisy room, he called each student one by one alphabetically. The shy types only raised their hands to show their presence while the more boisterous students did all sorts of things in order to mark their attendance like shouting, laughing out loud, and even cussing. Mr. Math didn't mind the rudeness of the students, and quite frankly, he was used to it since it was already the middle of the school year and the students of class 1-F are known to be retards, delinquents, and everything else that fits between the lines. Lastly, Mr. Math called Josef, and he answered with his typical "Here." and as he finished taking attendance, he began his lecture on his subject... math, of course.
As time passed and Mr. Math discussed the usual asymptotes and general forms, Josef sat quietly at the back, pretending to write notes, but in actuality, he was doodling away while his mind had already left the planet and was already adventuring in fantasy worlds in order to escape the excruciatingly boring lesson of mathematics. This wasn't as bad as what the other students were doing though, the boy in front of him was using his mobile phone under the desk where teachers can't see it, but it was blindly obvious from the ray of light coming from the screen due to its increased brightness. A girl in front of the class currently holds the record for fastest sleeper, with her falling asleep in class in a record time of fifty seconds while the boys near the back entrance of the classroom were chatting away, ignoring whatever Mr. Math was talking about. And let's not forget the standard eating while the teacher discusses in front of the class, covering themselves with a large textbook while they munch away their delicious sandwiches that they bought or maybe even stole from the cafeteria. Mr. Math was already quite used to this, and in all honesty, he already gave up teaching this class way back then.
As Josef continued with his doodles and Mr. Math quietly discussed the lesson, a piece of crumpled paper flew across the room and accurately hit Josef in the head. Josef looked confused as he wandered his vision of the entire room in order to look for the sender, and he saw Caden, his best friend, from across the room waving at him, motioning for him to open it. He picked it up and uncrumpled the small piece of paper on which a message was written: "Want to partner up for lab next period?" was written on the paper. They had science class after math, and there was an experiment assigned for today, so the class will be grouped into pairs in order for the experimentation process to become easier. Josef held up a thumbs up towards Caden, signaling to him that he accepts his proposal, and the two continued with whatever they were doing beforehand while Mr. Math continued to discuss their lesson, to which barely anyone was listening, and if they were, you could easily see the confusion in their faces from the difficulty of the lesson.
As Mr. Math finished his silent and unattractive lesson in mathematics, the whole class of 1-F quickly got out of their seats and headed towards the chemistry lab—most of them at least, As they entered the room, they could already see their teacher, Mr. Science, with a disappointed look on his face as he realized which class just entered his facility. The students really didn't give a fuck about the names of their teachers and just saw them as a nuisance, but at least the feeling was mutual, the students of class 1–F only called their teachers by their subjects and didn't interact with any of them outside of school.
Mr. Science proceeded to explain the procedures of the experiment while Josef dozed off into space. He didn't really care about experimentation because all he needed to do was watch a YouTube video or search online for the results. He heard something about mixing and test tubes, but that was all trivial stuff for him since he had no intention of doing the experiment, as did the rest of the class. When Mr. Science finished explaining the procedures with an unenergetic tone to his voice, the entire class proceeded to quietly perform the experiment, but that wasn't the case. What actually ended up happening was that the students started chatting with each other, not even caring if they were loud. Only a few students were preparing to do the experiment. Josef and Caden were happily chatting to each other while Caden tried to perform the experiment. He tries to be a good student at times but the only reason why he's participating in the experiment was because he was bored and was simply curious of the outcome, he liked hands on stuff more than reading and listening. He has a nice physique that goes well with sports, not to mention his superb Welsh accent, which makes him the man for the job when it comes to voice acting. The only reason he is in the losers' class is because of his violent tendencies. He is quick to respond whenever there are fights, and he is usually the loudest one to cheer whenever there are brawls in the room, and sometimes he is the one doing the fighting, since he doesn't mind getting hurt, all he cared about was to respond when threatened in order to not look like a weakling, but atleast he is smart enough to know when it was a bad decision to fight back.

While Josef continues to doze off into his imagination, it was quickly cut short when he heard a shatter of glass near him. When he looked around, he saw Caden looking down at a mountain of broken glass, presumably an entire rack of test tubes, and by the look on his face, he was guilty of the crime.
"Oh fuck," he said, as he panicked to hide the evidence, but it was too late. Mr. Science had already heard the sound of the shatter, even in a room filled with chatting and laughter. As he walked towards Caden, frustration and anger lit up on his face, almost nearing to explode.
"Just get the fuck out of my classroom!" He yelled.
They returned to the 1-F classroom, yet everyone started cheering and clapping for Caden.
"Ey, thanks for cutting the class short, Caden, I couldn't stand another second of Mr. Science's face. You're the real MVP." said one of the boys.
"No problem, dude." replied Caden. He tried to act natural, like he deliberately sabotaged the experiment. He was embarrassed because of his clumsiness, but luckily the entire class appreciated what had happened.
The whole class enjoyed their extra free time due to the incident, and they happily coughed up a storm in the room, with music playing on speakers, desks flipping over, and even one of the chairs being destroyed. Even the room on the other end of the hall could hear their shouting and laughter. It was chaos, but the other classes simply ignored it because they knew that there was nothing that could be done.
As third period came, Ms. English entered the classroom, saw the utter disrepair of the classroom, and proceeded to say, "I'm fucking done with this shit!" and slammed the door shut. There was a brief silence as they heard Ms. English's footsteps become fainter as she got further from their classroom. After five seconds passed, the class continued on with whatever they were doing beforehand, but even wilder due to the excitement that they felt from the absence of Ms. English, and thus it was now a study hall, and the students could do whatever they wanted, peacefully of course, but that was never the case in class 1-F.
Josef was quite saddened by the fact that English class was canceled since he actually excelled in it, but he couldn't do anything about it since what's done is done and there's no going back. He could apologize to Ms. English and beg her to teach, but he knew that it would only lead to him being ganged up on when he left the school, he didn't want to get hurt. Instead, Josef proceeded to sleep for the duration of the study hall while the entire room was in an uproar as usual.
