Bullets and Broomstick Baseball.

Hey my blogger babies!,

Today was a very..."unusual" day at good ole' BHS. I was sitting in Vocal Ensemble, signing in the choir like a good little chorus boy, hen suddenly we hear an announcement:

"All teachers and students are to go into LOCK-DOWN MODE IMMEDIATELY".


So we did.
We locked the doors, and we waited for ANYONE to give us some info about what the FUCK was going on:

20 minutes go by.
Nothin'.

So, our dear Ms.Pilanen, being the dedicated educator that she is, decides to go on with class. So we sing sing sing, and sing some more:

Oh look, it's "lunchtime"
Still no word.

AND THEN.......
Text messages start flying into people's phones; concerned parents wanting to know if their kid is alright, friends debating rumors on who did what, friends from other schools wanting to know "the scoop"

...Still no word.

So then, with the amazing people in my Vocal Ensemble class, we decide to ditch the whole singing thing.


So we just screwed around for the remaining 3 hours.
It was actually pretty fun.
Mama P. got into fooling around with us (She said we could call he Mama P....I think. Look, she was telling a story about it, and I just got the impression it was cool to call her Mama P....so I will i guess.) , and we all seemed to be having a good time. We played some good old fashioned stick (well, it was technically a broom...) Ball, did a little musical improv., and just generally had a good time.

The really nice part though, was when she said she would protect us from any harm.
She said it as part of a joke, but we all knew she was serious.
That's why Mama Pilanen=Amazingness.
She's so nice. She's like, one of my favorite teachers ever.

Especially in the beginning, when she told us to all bunch up, I felt as though we were, well, sort of a family. It was really, really nice.

All in all, I think this whole ordeal was really beneficial.
I it was really nice to see that sense of community.
Even though it sucked to be trapped in one room for 4 hours, I couldn't ask for better people to be trapped with.


What is Beverly and the surrounding community saying about Lockdown O8?

"Beverly has had poor discipline in the public schools for years. That's why we moved and put our kids in the Hamilton-Wenham Regional High School. The real estate taxes are almost double Beverly's and worth every penny for a quality, safe educational environment."


Okay, whoever this Anna woman is, she needs to not bash Beverly. YOU pulled YOUR kids out of Beverly Schools, and you're obviously overjoyed to not be part of the system anymore. So leave Beverly Schools to ITS OWN business, and try to combat the Marijuana issues that YOU are having in YOUR OWN TOWN.

Thanks Anna!
