twig doll

I was in a classroom with classmates from high school. We were all our current age and just starting a class together. I felt like we had similar feelings towards each other like we did when we were young, but there was also a bit of unfamiliarity. The chairs were set in a partial circle and most of the class had chosen their seat but there were still a few seats and students left, including myself. I kept walking around the circle to see which spaces were left, who I might want to sit by but never lingering long enough to show which seats I was in. So I kept walking and walking.... in the mean time, we were supposed to make a doll.... somehow inbetween walking around the circle and observing people, I made my doll, and I felt really good about it I know the others had made their doll out of synthetic materials and they were probably prettier than mine, but I felt good about mine because it was made of natural items, it was raw... it was real. So then I kept walking around the circle,the whole time I knew who I wanted to sit by, but I wouldn't sit there, I just kept looking thinking I must be needing find something else. It felt too exposed to show who I wanted to sit by.
