Once the activity was started and class was abuzz, Dolly floated around, passing through each aisle of desks to watch and listen to her students. Oh, it was just so cute! Watching them compliment each other and seeing the other one BLUSH and get flustered. It probably meant that these teenagers weren’t complimenting each other enough, if they all got so flustered when they heard good things about themselves. Maybe she should start each class with a requirement of telling their neighbor something good about them... Hmm.
After a few minutes, which she thought was sufficient enough, Dolly floated back up to the front of the classroom (accidentally floating right through Trinetta). ”WONDERFUL job, everyone! I hope that helped you all understand that beauty is really quite subjective, and that all of you have qualities on the INSIDE that make you a beautiful person.” Is that what they learned? Hopefully. ”Now we’re going to move onto our main activity for today! Could I please get ONE volunteer?!” She knew she had some volunteers at the beginning of class, but honestly, that was such a long time ago and she had already forgotten who they were. ”My volunteer, please write the following incantation on the chalkboard.” She cleared her throat before continuing. ”Pulchtritudo. P-U-L-C-H-T-R-I-T-U-D-O. Pulchitrudo.” It was quite a strange word, but Merlin had to set the trend with making spell names based off of Latin words! Anyway... ”This, my dear students, is the Beauty Charm. Oh, write this down too,” she added to the volunteer who was writing on the board. ”The wand movement is an EASY, quick TAP. Just flick your wand towards the target and - POOF! The blemish will be gone!” But only for a short time. ”The Beauty Charm is a temporary, but effective charm that will mask any blemish or imperfection on your skin. It is similar to makeup in the sense that it won’t last forever, but it looks quite natural!” Sometimes makeup made the skin look cakey, especially if you were OLD like her. ”So, for our last activity, I want you all to practice the new charm and then perform it on either yourself or someone around you.” ”Now, if you were blessed by the skin gods like ME and don’t have any blemishes to hide, I have a box up here full of stick on warts and pimples that will work just fine. Now, if there aren’t any questions.... Get to work!” She was intrigued to see who would use the charm on themselves and who would use a fake pimple. OOC: This is the last activity for the class! You will be posting your students practice the charm on themselves or others. There is a box of fake warts and pimples at the front of the class if they wish to use those. Any one of you who volunteered at the beginning of calss can be the volunteer here!
If you have a question for the professor, please put "PROFESSOR" in the title of your post!
This one is shorter - you only have 48 hours to complete this activity! If you didn't finish the last activity, don't fret! You are allowed to catch up!
Class will move on/finish on Thursday at about 10pm (GMT-7).
