    I remember sitting in class throughout middle and high school, making paper claws as my teachers droned on and on. I also made paper guns but i forgot how…Also, the paper sack can be used as a cup. My teacher had a water cooler in his classroom and when I asked to get some, he said “if you can find a cup, sure” so I improvised =D
