Food Fight!!!!!
Lol, I didn't feel like posting this yesterday. I was so lazy -_-; But yea, just like the title says, there was a food fight yesterday during 8th grade lunch. Being in a small school in a small city, I've never experienced a food fight. Yeah, once in a while people would throw a bit of food at someone a they would throw it back, then a teacher would see them and give them a warning. But this food fight will go down in our school's history, seriously.
Now, I've realized that 8th grade has been pretty good lately. The only problems seem to be in library and in the halls. So, you might think something was going on, right? Correct. A small group of boys had been planning this food fight for weeks. Names I won't say... oh, nevermind, everyone knows who the masterminds were.
So, it's about 10 - 15 min. since lunch started. I was finished cuz I didn't want to eat to much because of the squid disection later on. You can read about it here. I'm very sqeamish, if you didn't know. So I was looking around at the rest of the cafeteria. Looking at the balloon that had floated up to the ceiling that had belonged to a birthday girl, I guess. I looked at the table near us, seated only by boys (no, I wasn't staring at one of the boys cuz I 'liked them' I actually hate all the boys there) The table is also in the middle of the room or near.
One of the boys gave some sort of signal (Jaron, I believe. I think it was like "Now!" or something) So, I was watching as Josh stood up, and threw food at the preppy (popular) girl table. It was something liquid, I believe. So the girls were screaming, making me grin, as I hate all of them. Their table was on opposite side of the room from our table, so we weren't near getting hit. Then Josh threw the rest of his tray's contents as Jaron threw his food towards another corner of the room. By now, people were hiding under the tables (including 2 boys of that table) or had run away out of the commons. Our table still wasn't near being hit, so we were all (me, Brittni, Amanda, Brianna, Kayla N. .....and thats all I remember) just sitting there, watching, me laughing. Someone else threw food on the other side of our table and hit Keely who was standing there, watching them. She barely flinched, and continued watching.
I looked back at the boy table, watching Trenton still eating. He was laughing and started gaging. The boys stopped throwing food since they were out of stuff to throw. The office had cleared out, all the secretaries, the principal, the assistant principal, the librarians, the lot. I was like, "That was totally awesome!!"
Me, Brittni, and Amanda decided to get out of the commons, since, yea, it seemed common sense. There was food splattered on chairs, chips all over the floor, a half-finished slice of pizza on the opposite side of the room (it looked like it hit the wall), and peaches scattered across tables. We were almost out of the building (our school has outdoor hallways) when I realized that Cara had missed the whole thing!! We realized that Mr. Bright (the principal) was preoccupied in the cafeteria, so we wouldn't get in trouble going across the yellow line (a line we aren't supposed to cross before school and during lunch) as we has got in trouble before when we found out that Mr. Rainey wasn't in his room and there was no way to get into the 8th grade pod (building with only 8th grade classes) since we always go into his classroom when we finish eating and always find a way in if he's not in there and the door is locked.
At first when we were outside, we started walking fast, then it broke into a run. We burst into the room as we all started talking. I said, "You guys missed the food fight, it was totally awesome!!!" Cara, Mr. Rainey, Nick, and Jordin (a girl) were in there and they had all missed the legendary food fight!! They were listening to Jordin's iPod on the stereo with two speakers placed on either side of the room. The three of us planted ourselves on desk tops and started explaining everything to them (mostly to Mr. Rainey)
It was sooooo awesome. I found out later that Mrs. Happs, a custodian, got pictures of the food fight. lol, she carries a camera around everywhere to get stuff just like that for proof that something happened. But I think a 100 (or less) students saying there was a food fight and the mess that was left behind would convince many people that it actually did happen. I think they should use those pictures in the school yearbook. That would be awesome.

Megan,
Absolutely brilliant! You have such a vibrant, entertaining writing style - I read this post aloud to my wife and we were cracking up all the way through. Very well-written.
Mr. Rainey
Thank you!! Everytime I read this, I still end up cracking up. I've read it ssooo many times and I also wrote it, so I've been laughing a lot today
