drama. every day. all day.

today was the big field trip to the tellus science museum. but specifically, we went to the planetarium for the solar system show. honestly? it was kind of cool—big dark dome, planets flying across the ceiling, voices echoing around like we were in space. some kids actually paid attention. others? whispering, laughing, and probably missing every single planet that went by. you know how it goes.

after that, things were fine… until the bracelets. the tellus science museum bracelets. everyone had them. everyone knew the rule: don’t take them out. and yet, someone did. the second ms. felker saw it, she snapped. gone was the “sort of nice ms. felker” we’d seen earlier. instead, she hit us with the scary teacher voice: “do not take them out.” and just like that, the whole vibe shifted.

and then came the bus ride home. oh my god. it was going alright until my bus partner, t, had their plushie insulted by the kid behind them. insulting a plushie is already crossing the line—but t went nuclear. they spun around and shouted: “shut up, you f*cking r*pist.” the bus froze. total silence. two seconds later, everyone was either gasping, laughing, or whispering about what just happened. the rest of the ride was pure chaos.

so yeah. planetarium trip to the solar system, bracelet meltdown, and bus drama so wild it could’ve been its own soap opera. drama, every day. all day.
