The A-List
Jimmy's brother Alex is a graduate of Cornville High and goes to an in-state art college for sculpturing. Alex always tries to help Jimmy out with his schoolwork when he can. Alex tells Jimmy he needs to fill his creations with this.
Life
For Arthur's art history class, Jimmy hardly tried to memorize the unique vocabulary. Jimmy mistakenly described the French art movement Fauvism as this word on his midterm.
Fascism
Jimmy used to go on jogs around his neighborhood on weekends. Now he spends most of his time alone in his room. Jimmy does not go out because he is too much of this.
Tired
Alex came back to visit Jimmy during fall break. He showed Jimmy the projects he sculpted so far in college. Jimmy thinks Alex is this.
Doer
When Anys got home from work one day, she found Jimmy sleep in his bed right after school. When he woke up Anys yelled at Jimmy over his midterm grades. Jimmy did this before he broke down in tears.
Run
Jimmy's mom Anys pushes Jimmy to his limit everyday about school and his lack of motivation. Anys wants Jimmy to create something that he is proud of. Anys has this for Jimmy.
Expectations
Jimmy had a group project with Ames and two other classmates to create a multi-layer abstract piece of art on paper. Ames offered to do Jimmy's part
for him if he gave him part of his lunch for a week. This is the grade Jimmy received on his project.
Needs Improvement
Anys told Jimmy that he needed to get his grades up to get into a good college. Jimmy just wishes that he could be good at something. This is the only time
Jimmy feels at peace.
Asleep
Jimmy knows that his mom works multiple jobs to help support him. But he just cant bring himself to stay focused in school. Jimmy thinks he is this.
Coward
Arthur gave Jimmy an offer on his next project. As long as he did it all on his own, Jimmy could barely pass the class. Jimmy accepted and did this in the hallway right after.
Trudge
Jimmy's best friend Ames always jokes around with him, sarcastically making fun of his art and helps him out with his art projects. Jimmy can only do this when he is with Ames.
Relax
Last year Jimmy had a class in 2-D art and had to draw a portrait of a famous figure with three colored pencils. Jimmy did this with art he found online of Johnny Depp to quickly finish his project.
Traced
At night, Jimmy hesitates to go to bed. He keeps himself distracted with games and comics until he can't keep his eyes open any longer. This is the
reason why.
Fear
Ames bought Jimmy a red, sleek penny board and asked if he would skate around town with him. Jimmy had never felt this happy about receiving a gift. This is what he considers Ames.
Reliable
Anys got home late from work and opened up Jimmy's door to an unexpected, pleasant sight. Jimmy stared fixedly at the canvas, contemplating every stroke until slowly pulling back the brush. This is how Anys walked as she left the room quietly.
Skipping
Jimmy's art teacher Arthur scolds Jimmy for his lack of interest in art, especially when he falls asleep during class. Arthur loves Van Gogh's
works more than anything in the world. Arthur called Jimmy this after he said Starry Night looked like a toilet flushing.
Blind
Jimmy liked messing around with clay in pottery class, but always hated what he made. He spent 3 extra hours during SRT working on his clay mask just to throw it back into the clay bin. How did Jimmy feel.
Worthless
Jimmy has no idea what he will do after high school. He wants to be useful to those around him, but he is always too scared about failing. Jimmy is this about himself.
Angry
Arthur told Jimmy to stay after class on a Friday when an upcoming project was assigned. Arthur told Jimmy he knew about Ames doing the majority of Jimmy's work. Arthur said that Jimmy lacked this.
Integrity
Jimmy spent ten hours at home slashing away at a canvas to create something he could be proud of. He thought back on how much he's been supported by others, and couldn't let this last opportunity go. This was the last thing Jimmy needed to do.
Climb
Jimmy's current romantic interest, Alice, draws beautiful portraits of Japanese samurai, but she refuses to draw anything else.
She has about the same grades as Jimmy because of her inclination. This is what Jimmy loves the most about Alice.
Boldness
In 4th grade, Jimmy made origami cranes for his class for Valentine's day. Then he picked up a book with lots of simple origami instructions.
Jimmy felt this after crafting his first origami flower
Accomplishment
Jimmy wants to talk to Alice but finds himself hesitating at every opportunity. One day he musters up the courage to go and tell her how much he likes her samurai portraits. Alice did this in response.
Smile
After a month of talking with Alice, Jimmy asks her on a date to the town's history museum. She accepted. After describing how futile the advanced Japanese naval fleet was due to American aircraft in WWII, Alice complemented Jimmy with this word.
Smart
Alice and Jimmy held hands as they walked home from school together. Jimmy had passed his classes for the year, and loves himself more than over. Jimmy feels like he can do this together with Alice.
