Memorable Grade School Days: The Principal's Office
The picture above says it all.
As a student, you could never avoid from being in the Principal's Office. Only miracle would make you ditch that place. It'd be either you're being a b*tch made a huge cat fight, punched someone in the face or simply being an assbutt to your teacher that you're sent into that office.
In my case, I had an almost-trip and trip to the Principal's office.
The Almost-trip-to-the-Principal's-Office one was when I was in second grade.
I can still remember that there was this newbie in our school. He was the giant one in our class since he's too tall for his age. There was this one day when he was being a creep and had me up against the wall. Of course, I was a minion back then (and still is. Unfortunately,) and got scared. He ran his paper claws (we had those paper folded into claws-like back then. I don't know if that's still trending now a days. Tehee,) against my cheek. And by reflex/default, I pushed him. Hard.
I was the universal iron hand, my hand can slap like a real bee-itch. That's no brainer. And by his long and strong arm, the giant had me flown onto the other corner. I had my head banged on the wall - hard - and I was forced on my butt, sitting on the floor.
Like the crybaby I was (take note, was), I cried. But not real hard- just shed tears due to the impact.
And also, being the youngest in the family who has cousins and brother in the same school I was in, they got concerned. My brother came to the rescue and asked me what happened and gladly, he didn't throw fits about it. He just called the giant off.
I remembered that the Grandma of the Giant stated that: "I don't care if you're going to be sent into the Principal's office. You face that on your own."
It was a traumatizing event, but there's this one more traumatizing event that had me LITERALLY sent to the Principal's Office.
I was in fifth grade at that time. I was watching few of my guy friends and other higher grade schoolers playing Bato Lata. That's a famous game in our place where you hit a can and successfully trip it then the opponents have to hit each members of the opposing team. Really, this game is so Filipino! :D It was a fun one. BELIEVE ME!.
Then I have a girl friend with me. I was saying that one of the players was gay... I said that because my friend keeps talking about him- so girly stuff. Then all of a sudden, she caught the attention of the said guy by calling out to him, "Hayes! Hayes! Bayot daw ka ana si Reychel!!!" (Bayot = Gay).
The guy, let's call him Hayes (not his real name), was in fury after hearing this. Seeing him in rage had me running for my life. I felt really disappointed about my friend because she spilled the beans that way. -.-
Then, being the slow runner I was, Hayes was able to catch up with me and had my wrist. He twisted it and I cried. He said mean things to me but I could not remember his specific words. (Whatever to that, I was traumatized, okay?)
I was still crying in the midst of our Flag Retreat Ceremony. I was horrified, okay!? Our Principal noticed my crying fit so she got concerned. I spilled the beans and had us (me and Hayes) sent to the Principal Office.
In my eight years in that Grade school, that was the first time I was ever sent in the Principal's office due to this and that. Inside, we had a talk with our Principal and had a long boring lecture while I was still weeping a little. Yes, I was still crying inside. Hayes' face scary you know!?
To be honest, it is not a enjoyable to have a trip to the Principal's office. But what would be your School days if you haven't gone to one? :)
P.S. The Giant and I are close friends now so that's great. :D
