spewing guts

This one is odd, because it wasn't from a student. This one is from a teacher. I'm sitting in Feldy's (Ms. Feldhaus) room, minding my own business and I hear “That’ll just spew all your guts out.”
I seriously had NO idea what was going on. It was dead silent in the room. And then that was said. Now, knowing Ms. Feldhaus as well as I do, I probably shouldn’t think anything of her saying this, but it just struck me as oddly funny. So I decided to share it. I still do not know what this conversation was about, but I can only imagine…

Baby In The Dryer

Okay, this one is a personal experience. Im sitting at o’charleys talking to some friends at the table. One tunes out texting her boyfriend. The rest of my friends and I were talking about front loading dryers and how children sometimes crawl in them and that there have been reports of the dryers being turned on and children dying inside of them. Sarah (the one texting) butts in and says “what gerbils?” and in a most serious tone I say “NO. Baby in the dryer.” I then sat in an awkward science. And everyone proceeded to laugh hysterically and be stared at by waiters and people eating their food.
This was probably one of the funnier things that has happened in a long while. It is pretty much the butt of all jokes. But I now know what it feels like to be misunderstood.

baby picures

I have officially decided that I may be one of the only people who hear things in the hall and find them weird. Like today, I was walking down the hall, a girl with pictures in hand screams “AH! THERE'S THE STRUDEL”

At first, this was odd. I was wondering who in their right mind would bring porn to school… or look at it ever for that matter. Then I saw what the pictures were. A girl had brought in pictures of her ultra sound, and was showing everyone that it was a boy. Now, im happy for her that she has a nice health baby boy… but I find it a little unnecessary to talk about it in that way. Just say “im having a boy” rather than “there’s its Strudel” lets just say that I felt super awkward walking away from that one, and wondered if anyone actually knew what she was talking about as they passed by, or they continued on with their day with the first thought that came to mind.

deep sea fishing?

So, this is one of those posts where I have to replace the words, so look out for that.
“Hey man, whatcha doing this weekend?”
“Oh nothing, going to a party”
“WHAAAA? Lion sailing? IM DOWN!”


Well, at first, I chuckled when hearing this and had to run and tell my friend what happened. Then, upon thinking deeper about this I thought it was sad. It’s sad because that was their definition of a fun weekend. I mean, I have fun just hanging out at my house with a friend, or going fishing out back… COMPLETELY SOBER. So I dint understand why people have to live to such extremes to be satisfied with heir lives. With all of this in mind, it kind of makes me appreciate the life I live a whole lot more.

drunken fool

Okay. So. Walking down the hall way from the cafeteria. The girl behind me and her friend start talking, and this is what I heard.
“WHY DID YOU DO THAT TO YOURSELF?"
"I don’t really know, that’s not usually me."
"Well, where were you?"
"That’s just it. I don’t remember, I was drunk."


Okay, really? First of all, why would that ever even be a possibility of a conversation someone would have. And second, when it does happen, WHY TALK ABOUT IT IN THE HALL? Everyone can hear you speaking; you are not 21, therefore teachers can get you in HUGE trouble; and lastly, that will give you a really bad rep. Not only a bad rep with your peers, but one with teachers, parents, employers and any adult in general for that matter. So, if you actually have a reason to talk about something that idiotic, please do it in private. Thank you.
