Passing Notes in Class



When class is in session, one student would pass a note to his/her crush, usually during a lecture. He/she must usually rely on other students next to him/her due to being far away from his/her crush.

Unfortunately, the teacher usually finds out as the note is being passed and confiscates it, as this is often forbidden in the classroom. The teacher may even force the offending student to read it out loud to the rest of the class, resulting in embarrassment.
