Made you keep reading I see … Get your mind out of the gutter.
The only thing worse than VALENTINE’S DAY is Valentine’s Day in a middle school.
Candy, balloons, and stuffed animals … oh my!
When I’m principal of my own school, I will outlaw Valentine’s Day. I saw enough tears and heard enough verbal confrontations today to last the remainder of the school year.
By 12:30 today, every student and a few teachers were on a sugar high that would make Robin Williams in any interview look like a shy five year old.
By 2:30 today, the campus looked like a tornado hit it … candy wrappers, lollipop sticks, and discarded VD cards were everywhere. I even found a dirty note from a 13-year-old female to a same age male telling him what “present” she was willing to perform for him and what she would like in return after school. What happened to the handwritten note passed across the room with: I like you. Do you like me? Check yes or no. There is something just wrong about middle schoolers getting more action than me — especially on Valentine’s Day.
And, speaking of my Booger Bear, for the first time in twelve years, I received flowers at work. I suppose that is something to celebrate on this “commercialized” holiday.
