Heard in the Halls

“We should have a cosmic party! The Universe could dance for us.”

Welcome, ladies and gents, to the halls of Lowry High School, where imaginations run wild. Where the things you hear are so random and so confusing, they just have to be shared with all.

“I’m Tanner than all of you.” -Tanner Lecumberry. So punny.

As much as I dislike that girls wear leggings as pants, some of you have some really cute leggings. And I’m not the only one who notices, “You know the black ones she has with that one dude on them. I want those so bad, they’re so cool.” This is only funny because it was a guy longing for these black leggings with that one dude on them. Yikes.

Silly boy, leggings are for girls.

“He’s with her now!? Oh my goodness, my life is over!”

Can you please just not? Like, shhh.

“My mom isn’t texting me back, I’m going to punch her in the face.”

That escalated quickly. Well, you’re in the middle of class anyway, so put the phone away and pay attention.

“This table just ruined my tights! Oh nooooo. Kill me! Is it noticeable? That’ so ratchet, I can’t even handle it.”

I can’t even handle you.

“Alright. Hey, I’ll see you after class, later. Oh, wait. We’re walking the same way. Oh, wait! We have the same class!”

That must have been an awkward moment.

“Cheesecake shouldn’t be called cheesecake if it’s not made of cheese. Besides, the word cheesecake just sounds incredibly unappetizing.”

I couldn’t agree more. But cheesecake is delicious, so yeah.

“Well, ladies and gentlemen, today is January 14. That’s two weeks into the new year. How are your resolutions going? You’re probably still all fat.” “Well, I went to the gym for three whole days.”

Atta kid! Hey, that’s three more days than me. Own it man, own it.

Yes, I am aware that quote is from a month ago. But the rough draft of this story was due a month ago so get over it.

It’s February, so among all this there was also a whole lot of love. But, I’d rather my story make you want to laugh, not throw up. So let’s keep it short and simple and say I heard a whole lot of the “L-word” this month.

You people should try listening when you’re walking down the halls, it’s quite amusing. So until next time, Lowry. Over and out.
