oxymoron
The trapeze artist stood high on the platform. The whole crowd was silent. He was working without a net. The trapeze artist rubbed his hands on his knees, grabbed the flying trapeze, and sprung into the air.

The cafeteria is large but it is crowded. You don't have very many choices, yet the choices you have are important. As a new student at this school, you are being watched by many of the others. Whom you associate with early will affect how the other students will perceive you. The wrong choice could make your life much harder for the next few years. So, what do you do? Here you stand, where do you sit?
