Natalia would like to assure everyone that she is not, in fact, a sl*t.
She is merely a women who is very comfortable with her body & sexuality,
& who refuses to conform to the typical high school stereotypes.
The girl that all the guys flock to, and all the other girls snub, the bad girl.
Raquel is that girl who is always disabling the smoke detector in the bathroom so
she can take a drag without being caught. She's the one climbing out her bedroom
window at night, being careful not to get caught. She's the one with the leather clad
boyfriend that drives a Harley. Is she most likely to succeed, or just a rebel without a cause?

The teacher leaves the classroom, which quickly descends into chaos. Balls of paper fly in all directions, obscenities are written on the blackboard and the noise causes such a din, the teacher storms back to the classroom as the rumble carries itself along the corridor.

...and an athlete...
..and a basket case...
...a princess...
..and a criminal... "
Everyone in high school is given a role - Snejana was the nerd, the geek, at the end of a long list of characters fighting daily for popularity.
