Seriously | Random Book

•short storytimes: school•

I know I've mentioned it before, but I'm a military child. I've moved about every 2-3 years since I was born, so I've been to a lot of different schools around the country. 4 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 3 high schools to be exact lol. Some of the places I've attended school in include Washington state, Florida, California, and Guam.

I thought it'd be entertaining if I shared some stories ^_^

• I got into KPOP because my friend showed me music videos during Algebra I instead of doing online math course practices

• My Geometry teacher was a superstitious native who cared more about the tennis team than her class. If someone asked her a question about the work because xe needed help, she would dead-ass respond, "Find the answer with your heart." THANKS.

• My World History I teacher made students have a dance off for extra credit

• A guy who sat next to me didn't have his song prepared for his ukulele test next class, so he went into the bathroom and slammed his head on the sink and got a black eye then went home 

• My AP Language Arts teacher would drink orange soda every day and scratch her back with a ruler

• An upperclassman in Chemistry listened to Maroon 5's "Animals" via his Beats headphones (on full blast so I heard it repeatedly, too) before the bell rang at 7:20 AM for a good two weeks

• There's a salt lamp in the Atmospheric Science classroom my teacher bought on vacation. You bet people lick it nonstop even to this day.

• I complained about the cross country coach to my friend only to find out he was her dad

• My science class required students to participate in the island-wide science fair, but no one in my group knew what to do... sooo we bought McDonalds and did "How does fast food affect your health?" or something along those lines. I got an A for eating a burger lololol

• In that same science class, a guy passed out while giving a presentation and no one moved for what felt like a full minute until my teacher went hysteric

• I made this monstrosity in Ceramics II—

• I thought I was a badass in elementary school because I could sneak in Bakugan and/or Pokémon cards and trade them with other students without being caught

• There was a girl who would wear a wolf tail-belt to school everyday

• I clearly remember telling my teacher "No thanks, I'm good" when he told me to come up and solve a problem on the board because I was busy coloring my art project in fourth grade

• I bit a kid in second grade. Why? I don't remember

• At DODEA schools you have to stand for the National Anthem every morning after the Pledge of Allegiance, and my history teacher forced us to sing along or get participation points docked

• For the final grade of the year in the same history class, my teacher made students have a talent show where you got a 100 for participating and a 0 if you refused

• I broke almost all of my uniform skirts' zippers during gym class while changing too quickly

• I changed one of my one-shots into third person POV and turned it in for a short story project and got an A

• My Advanced English 10 teacher thought Romeo & Juliet was too boring, so we read Julius Caesar and now I don't get any references to the former

• I've been mistaken for a freshman my entire high school career by people YOUNGER THAN ME

~ Bonus Round: Spanish II ~
Note: the classroom was located outside in a pod next to the school's soccer field

• My teacher got triggered by the sound of chip bags crinkling and would freak out at students eating loudly

• This one guy would honk at geese in the morning if they were on the field and my teacher would do nothing

• One time it was pouring rain so there were frogs hopping outside and a kid brought one into the classroom

• The railing connecting the pod to the school would ice over in cold weather so people fell down all the time (I never did because I actually paid attention lmao)

• I had to make a PowerPoint for an assignment (write a story) and these are some of the actual slides—

aaaand I got a 100 yeyeye

I hope this was fun to read ^^;
