Mnemonic


[y-] Yoshi is [2] inside the hallways of the [-ai] high school, making a 山 mountain out of 圭 bricks to block the hallway in order to protest the fact they won't let a dinosaur attend classes. Each 圭 brick he grabs from a pile he has in an open locker with his tongue and puts it into place. At one end of the 山 mountain he has built is a 崖 cliff that he accidentally falls off of while building it up. He is able to break his fall with an empty egg at the last moment.
