I don't remember much. I just remember in this time-span I got a very visible hickey on my neck and I was doing good covering it. Wednesday though I forgot because of lack of sleep and drama back home and whatnot. Instead of being smart and having my hair down and makeup to cover, I did the exact opposite and someone didn't tell me how noticeable my neck was until Pharmacy started.
Soon after my teacher noticed. She flipped and got my other teacher. Next thing you know I'm in the hallway getting full on lectured on how it's tacky, and unprofessional, and blah blah. I get threatened that if I don't find a way to cover it up by my second teachers class after lunch I won't be allowed in. Luckily Flor came to the rescue with a long sleeve undershirt but that still didn't cover it so some kids in Pharmacy told me to put a bandaid on it because that's what they do.
HORRIBLE IDEA. For some reason the bandaid got more attention then the hickey itself. Everybody was commenting about what happened to my neck, and the leech or octopus or whatever I got in a fight with. Ugh it was wild. Not much embarrassing though since the kids here, especially Pharmacy have all walked around with hickeys.
It get's wilder though. The next day (Thursday). It's pretty normal again. Until I go to my teacher who caught me first. She asks me again who gave me the hickey and I decline to answer. All I answered was they were in a hard voc. So she asked this kid from a hard voc visiting our class if he might know who gave her student a hickey. He deadass goes "well she's always hanging out with this white boy with gages*" and then tells her what class he's in.
Next thing you know my teacher pulled up his whole student profile. Comes to the class I'm in and goes,
"I know everything now last name, class, the vocs he's thinking of choosing, DOES YOUR MORMON DAD KNOW YOUR DATING A SATANIST!"
I'm just like omg how did you get this and she's like I know everything. I still don't deny or confirm if it was him or not. It wasn't. So she goes on and on about how I can do way better than Job Corps guys especially way better than the Satanist AND
SHE THREATENED TO CALL BOTH MY PARENTS!! I'M TWENTY YEARS OLD WHAT IS THIS?!
After class and her again lecturing me we wait in the hallway for the bell to ring and I'm texting my friend about how sorry I am because I know either his teacher or mine will find him because I sort of threw him under the bus by not confirming if it was him or not. Next thing you know my teacher looks at me and goes "OH GUESS WHO HAPPENS TO BE WAITING OUTSIDE TODAY" and takes off! So I take off too. She lectures my friend and my friend is just like I didn't do it ... because he didn't.
We all laugh it off, I explain to my poor "Satanist" friend what happened. Everything is chill just awkward lol. She then tells me whoever did do it better not do it again so of course I'm like "Yes ma'am." anything to avoid this scene again. The only other person to interrogate me after that was an RA of mine who came in my room and actually guessed the person by name. I panicked and my roommate had to help me lie with that one.
Friday (today) I did get used as an example in class on what will happen if PDA and "evidence of PDA" is caught. No biggie. Also I hit my 60 day mark which is supposed to be the period when homesickness wears off. Oh and a few days ago I applied for government.
Despite the madness I actually like how my teachers and RAs are so quick to go momma mode over stupid stuff. I think it shows how much the staff here does care. It is slightly annoying since I'm 20, but it's nice to know that the staff here love and see us as their kids. It's both ways too especially with RAs. A lot of us even refer to them as "Momma (insert their name here)" It's nice especially since me and a lot of students here aren't particularly fond of our parents 24/7.
*The white boy with gages is a friend I used to work with and drink with back in Vegas. We are super close here to the point where everyone thinks we are dating and most assume a hickey would be from him. But despite it all we are not dating, we never had date, and the hickey was not from him, nor will I say who it's from.
