Today, I was supposed to return to school after our winter holidays. I was dreading this. Well duh, everyone does! No one wants to spend eight hours and twenty five minutes in a cement hell hole. Yesterday I was praying, literally praying to God for just one more day... I got it. My dear friend Kayla texted me last night saying "There is a rumor going around that the heaters at school are broken". I was like Okay, who came up with that one. Then later my mom told me the same thing, which got me thinking, Is this for real? I woke up this morning groggy and grumpy. (Completely expected) While I was getting my clothes together I heard the phone ring. How odd, who would call at 7:15? Turns out it was my mom telling my dad that all of the heaters at my school were broken, and also that school might be cancelled for us. (Here's the thing, Bowie High is made solely out of concrete. In the summer its Dante's Inferno. In the winter its an icebox.) With no heat, we would freeze our little buttsies off! My pops was really sceptical about the whole thing. He had the radio on, the television on, and was googling some thing close to "bowie high closed due to lack of heaters". Finally, he found a news channel's website that had "All Classes Canceled at Bowie High School" as its headline,CONFIRMED! We then checked the school district website, CONFIRMED! Proceeded to call the school, CONFIRMED! Now I'm at home snuggled in my Snuggie, waiting for my sister to wake up so I can scare the crap out of her. WHAT A DAY!
