already　been　published　in　theNew　Yorker　at　the　impressive　age　of　seventeen　and　had　a　brief　stint

as　the　lead　singer　for　the　popular　rock　band　the　Raves；　but　when　he　arrived　in　Washington　State；

all　the　hell　the　way　across　the　country；　he？d　have　a　new　degree　from　the　College　of　Life。

Bucking　girls　and　shucking　corn；

Rodeo　bullhorns；　Stetsoned　longhorns；　a　Kansas　cyclone。

A　Nebraskan　girl　leaves　her　lipstick　on　the　dash？

She　salts　my　beef；　stirs　my　gumbo；　spits　out　my　pit。

Uh…oh。　Sounds　like　he　was　a　rock　star　for　one　day　too　many。

？The　class　voted　for　you　and　you　alone；？　Larry　explained。　？You　should　feel　extremely　honored。？

Dan　was　mystified。　He　pushed　his　chair　back；　crossed　his　grubby　blue　Pumas　one　over　the　other；

and　shoved　his　hands　into　the　pockets　of　his　worn…in　khaki…colored　cords。　？But　I　didn？t　even

nominate　myself；？　he　blurted　out。

Way　to　make　it　obvious　that　you　have　no　friends。

Snickers　erupted　throughout　the　room。

？It？s　like；　you？re　a　celebrity；　man；　and　we　want　you　to　represent　us；？　Chuck　Bass　explained　in　a

mock　stoner　voice。　Chuck？s　pet　snow　monkey；　Sweetie；　was　curled　up　in　a　fuzzy　white　ball　in

Chuck？s　lap；　asleep；　wearing　his　favorite　tight；　cantaloupe…colored　T…shirt　with　a　bright　pinkS　on

the　back　of　it。　Everyone；　even　the　teachers；　had　gotten　so　used　to　the　monkey；　they　didn？t　bat　an

eye；　but　Sweetie　still　gave　Dan　the　creeps。

？We　figured　it？d　be　easy　for　you；　since　you？re　writing　all　the　time　anyway；？　Chuck　continued

sarcastically。　More　snickers。

Dan　tipped　his　chair　back。　？Wait。　Let　me　get　this　straight。You　nominated　me？？

Chuck　flipped　up　the　collar　on　his　bright　purple　short…sleeved　Lacoste　shirt。　？It？s　like　Larry　said。

It　was　unanimous。？

Dan？s　hands　began　to　sweat。　Senior　speaker　was　an　honor；　but　he　felt　like　he？d　gotten　it　by

default。　He　certainly　wasn？t　the　most　popular　guy　in　the　class。　He？d　spent　his　entire　senior　year

either　trying　to　bee　famous　or　hanging　out　with　his　former　best　friend　and　girlfriend；　Vanessa；

in　Williamsburg；　Brooklyn。　He　guessed　all　the　other　guys　in　his　class　were　going　to　be　too　busy

partying　or　trying　not　to　fail　their　finals　to　bother　writing　a　graduation　speech。

？Just　keep　it　light。　And　remember；　everyone　just　wants　that　diploma　in　his　hands；　so　keep　it　short；

too；？　Larry　advised；　pulling　on　his　lame　dirty　blond　goatee　like　the　wannabe　teenage　boy　he　so

totally　wasn？t。

？Okay；？　Dan　responded　dubiously。　It　appeared　he　had　no　choice　in　the　matter。

Chuck　tapped　him　on　the　shoulder。　？So　guess　what？　That　dykey　girlfriend　of　yours？　I　heard

she？s　gonna
