Back in 10th grade at my High school (PTHS) during spring 2005. A friend of mine who was running for class president next year, decided to break dance in front of the A cafe (PTHS has 2 cafes one for 9th - 10th graders, and the other for 11th - 12th graders). It was because of that little show that he won the election. Even though everyone only voted for him for the hell of it and started to regret it a year later (of course he did live up to the job and did few great things, like get cheese fries on the lunch menu again even though it was only for a year and a half.)
Then there was my entire senior class trip to Florida during my finally year at high school. Ahh good times :) I remember it so well (hope I never forget it!).
Day 1: Everyone who's going arrives at the school (There were 90 students that wanted to go) at around 5 - 6 am. We have few laughs, play a few video games, dress up some random student who was asleep on the floor against the wall as a hobo a take photos (he was pissed when he found out but he got over it within a few hours or so). Anyway the buses ran a little late so we had to hurry on to them so that we don’t miss our flight (by the way it recently snowed here in new jersey around that time so we we’re all really looking forward to this), and depart from the school at around 8 – 9 am. So as we approach the airport, the bus driver misses our turn, so she decides to back up on a highway, in an attempt to go down the exit leading to the airport. As we are doing that a police officer pulls us over. Talking about how dangerous it was to be backing up on a highway (even though there were no cars coming when we attempted it plus only a little over half the bus passed the exit in the first place so we were still good).
Anyway the cop gives her a ticket, as the rest of our buses are pretty much at the airport now. But he decides to let us back up and make the turn and even agrees to help us out a bit (what a cool cop). So as we’re backing up another cop starts screaming at us. It seems we were backing up into his car (almost on top of it LOL, but no real damage was done to his car). He gets out and screams at the bus driver but the other cop that was helping us clamed him down and explained that we really didn’t see him so it was mostly his fault. He agrees to let us slide although the bus driver is now in real trouble (I don’t know how things went down after we left but since she showed up to pick some of us up a week later, I assume everything turned out ok) Anyway we finally managed to arrive at the airport and meet up with the rest of the seniors. Lucky for us, our plane was delayed thanks to the snow. We were happy to hear that… at first anyway.
We were at that airport for 10 hours before our plane arrived. Any longer and we’d all be camping out side on the runway singing campfire songs in our undergarments. But at least we had the plane all to our selves (made me feel famous). After arriving at Florida at around 10pm, (yeah we missed our first day which we were going to spend at universal studios -_-), We all end up get separated at the airport while we waited for our tour bus to show up who was running late (at least there was no snow down at Florida). It took her 1 hour to get to us. After getting to and checking into our hotel (we almost ended up sleeping somewhere else but one of the teachers managed to convince the hotel owner to let us stay there for the week). After eating some pizza, and playing yugioh with my roommates, we all decided to get some rest. Hoping tomorrow would be better.
