mints
mcdougall
Everyday
at
lunch
there
is
a
small
woven
basket
of
mints;
the
little
round
kind
with
the
red
and
white
pattern
in
a
small
plastic
-paper wrapper.
I
always
grab
a
handful
of
them
.
I
have
such
large
gaps
between
my
classes
and
it
is
almost
hard
for
me
to
find
entertainment
.
as
soon
as
I
am
done
with
my
homework
that
is
expected
of
me
,
I
sit
down
at
either
a
computer
in
one
of
the
labs
to
read
new
blathes
or
do
what
ever
or
a
table
in
the
cafeteria
so
that
I
can
watch
people
and
think
.
No
matter
which
I
do
I
always
have
those
mints
with
me
to
keep
me
happy
.
Sometimes
I
put
mints
in
my
coffee
,
but
that
is
only
in
the
wintertime.
The
one
in
my
mouth
right
now
has
broken
into
two
pieces
and
they
are
both
fragile
because
of
the
air
holes
that
have
appeared due
to
the
disintegrating
of
the
mint
by
my
saliva
.
