* **Surrounding 8 Panels:** Fill with diverse classmates featuring comically awkward expressions and exaggerated 90s styles:
    * **Top Row:** A girl with a massive, frizzy perm and thick glasses grinning goofily; a guy with a huge, feathered mullet in a denim jacket looking uncomfortable; a girl with a severe bowl cut and a strained, toothy smile.
    * **Middle Row (Left/Right):** A guy with a tall flat-top haircut giving a cheesy thumbs-up; another guy with a severe center part and a confused, open-mouthed stare.
      * **Bottom Row:** A girl with wildly crimped hair and a pained grimace; a guy wearing large, thick-rimmed tortoise-shell glasses, textured pastel knit crewneck sweater layered over a white collared shirt has a polite, slightly awkward smile; another girl with huge, teased bangs and a forced, tight-lipped grin.
