i only told a few people that i was leaving school for the semester...i was planning on telling more people when i saw them, but they had already found out. but the info they recieved was wrong. they all thought i was leaving tomorrow afternoon. it just amazes me how fast word spreads around this school. i mean, i only told like people that i was leaving and over 10 people came up to me wishing me well over the next few months.
All it takes is telling one person, and within five minutes, the whole community knows. I hate it when people do that to me...
i don't mind, just wish people whold spread the correct message. i mean, people were thinking i was leaving tomorrow or leaving school without telling people. so i had to go around and tell people that i was leaving on sunday, because they had gotten the wrong message.
You are damn right, word spreads fast. The entire town of Chicago Heights (Illinois) knows my business.. took all of about two days
I was having breakfast today here in Woodstock and heard two ladies talking about you and school. The one was saying you were leaving on Friday night!
I hate how people can't ever seem to get the story right. We had this teacher once who did an experiment with the classroom. She chose a student and told him to think of a random sentence. Then she asked him to whisper that sentence to the person next to him. The next person was supposed to whisper it to the next and on and on. The rule was that we were not allowed to repeat what we'd whispered. If the person heard it wrong, too bad. Then she took his actual sentence and compared it on the board with what the last student in the class said they thought they heard. The idea was to prove that you can't believe everything you hear. Trouble is, what someone tells you isn't always being whispered without the option of a repeat, so I don't know how the hell people get shit so mixed up.
