Today was a special occasion. Most of us were watching from the balcony above while the festivities were happening in the gym below us. Apparently a freshman had created a rather embarrassing video to share. Something happened and a fight broke out. Meanwhile an alum of my previous school came out and pretended he was on fire.

A teacher had his hair tied up and was in his own graduation gown. It looked liked a younger version of himself. We walked past each other as I was being brought into an office for have a cellphone in my pocket.

“Looks like we’re going to have to use one of those make-up days”, the principal said, sighing at the chaos below.

I was going to reply with something along the lines of “funny, isn’t it?” but I restrained myself, thinking he wouldn’t appreciate me taking the situation around us so lightly.
