So, for anyone who goes to Gleneagle, you know that me and my buddies like to do crazy stuff. Quite often out of the norm. Sometimes we run down the hallways with people over our shoulders. Sometimes we run down the hallways with 2 or 3 people on our backs... Sometimes we wrestle over nickles and dimes. For some reason, our old principal tolerated all this, and even encouraged it at times. (We will miss you Mr. Matheson)
And there is of course, the OTHER thing that we tend to end up doing... We get... Close to each other. In a joking way, of course. We hug, we share jackets, we sit on each other, we dog pile. But one day, I think we took it to far. I can't remember exactly why, but I do believe one Edward Ross was trying to take something out of my pocket, to which I wasn't resisting. Our friend, Blake, was trying to restrain him. The whole time I was standing pretending nothing was happening. We were making a lot of noise. As usual. But for some reason on this particular day, a teacher decided to come outside. Now, I'm not going to say any names or point any fingers, but he walked out and saw us doing our thing. To which he started saying:
"If you guys are going to be fooling around, go outside. It's perfectly normal for teenage boys to experiment, and try things with other boys, and I'm not judging you on that. But if you can't do it in here." We all started laughing. "No, seriously. Get out. Go try things on each other outside, but not in here." He continued, until he finally kicked us out.
Now, I'm not sure if this man is a homophobe, and wanted to get us as far away from him as possible, or if he thought we were being to loud, but let me add it was lunch time, and I haven't heard about restrictions on noise levels since Grade 8.
So we left, all the while talking about how big of a jerk this guy was. But, at this point, we also decided that "We need to stop doing what we do." Now, this is the good part.
Yesterday at lunch, we were in our corner. Everytime someone got close to someone else, as it has been for the last 2-ish weeks, someone would mention, or remind that "We need to stopdoing what we do." But, as it were, everyone was doing what we do at this particular moment. Our friend started singing "My Lumps" by the Black Eyed Peas, Blake and Ed were... Dancing... in a somewhat provocative fashion with each other, and as my friend finished singing, I said "Check it out" and stuck my chest out. At which point my friend (Dillon) went to grab my chest. As doing so, the currently unnamed teacher walked passed, and looked at us funny. We all casually stopped doing what we were doing, when Blake turned around, looked at him and in the most casual tone ever said "Hey" and gave him a nice little wave, as if they were old friends. He walked away as we all burst out laughing.
