Junior shares her love of chicken wings
Junior Homecoming princess Michelle Chan began chatting on Facebook with Homecoming commissioner junior Priscilla Chu about how she was enjoying her chicken wings on Sept. 29. Chu then sent another message to the members of the Homecoming court and commission with information about attire, transportation and the school-provided dinner before the Homecoming game.
Absentmindedly, Chan accidentally typed, “im eatin a chicken wing” and sent the message to the Homecoming commissioners and all 12 members of the Homecoming court.
When she realized her mistake, she became startled and hastily informed everyone that she had typed in the wrong conversation.
Still, the damage was done. Senior Homecoming commissioner Allison Toh later posted, “Michelle, please do tell me more about your chicken wings.”
Junior suffers a run-in
In the silence of Natasha Ritchie’s sixth-period English Honors class on Oct. 7, junior Johnny Chang rose for an appointment with his guidance counselor while the rest of his classmates concentrated on their books.
He turned the door knob to leave, but the door refused to budge. Though the door didn’t move, Chang still did.
“I walked into the door at a constant velocity, experiencing a large deceleration, which then prompted a funny little ‘wuh’ from my mouth,” Chang said.
At first the class seemed confused as to what had occurred but soon burst into laughter. Chang also laughed his experience off and finally made his way out the door. With smiles on their faces, the rest of the class went back to work.
Senior stuck in messy situation
During the summer of 2010 senior Sue Liang was in front of a mall in the middle of a crowded square in Dong Guan, China, when her foot became stuck in between the bars of a sewer drain in the ground.
“My foot somehow managed to fit perfectly [in the bars],” she said.
Many people passed by surprised and curious as to what happened, but neglected to help the stranded senior in her struggle.
“Everyone was watching. They didn’t know whether to help or laugh,” Liang said. “I was mostly panicking and thinking, ‘What if my shoes fall into the underground drains beneath the bars?’”
Her cousin tried to help her pull out her foot to no avail, but after 10 minutes of pulling, Liang managed to release herself with only a little scrape on the side of her leg.
“[My cousin] just gave me an ‘I will forget about this incident like it never happened if you do the same’ look and I gave her an ‘of course’ look,” Liang said.
