Dad, Did You Change My Senior Quote?
We could say that this is yet another example of a little bit of humor in a senior yearbook, or that it’s another example of Asian parents having a stereotypical desire for their children to go above and beyond at school, but there is another option.
Maybe this dad was just so darn proud of his son that he wanted to say that he was the best, and that he was proud of him. What better way to say so than to say that he had the top grade? Sure, the delivery could have been adjusted a little bit, since it still seems like the dad is way too interested in his son’s grades, but it’s certainly possible that this is just a well done son kind of line.
Usually People Are Mad About It
We bet you’ve had this happen to you before: you got a fresh buzz or a little trim, and you walked into school expecting all your friends to tell you how good it looks. But you get through the entire day and nobody says a peep about it. It can feel a little hurtful – did they even notice? Is the haircut bad? Are they even your friends at all?
Well, Ghufran Salih didn’t have an issue with it, since nobody ever saw her hair anyway. One of the big advantages to always wearing something on your head. That’s why there are some people out there that always have a baseball cap. If nobody can ever see your hair, then nobody will ever tell you that you’re having a bad hair day.
You Should Have Listened
You might have had that one kid in the back of your class who was always trying to tell you how things were going to turn out, but did you listen? No! That might have been because the kid had a weird smell and kept trying to tell you that the real money was in chinchillas, but every once in a while one of them will actually see the thread unraveling.
Todd Goodman tried to tell us the truth in his senior quote – but what did he mean by “the end,” exactly? The end of the world? Doesn’t really seem like it, since we’re all still here. Todd feels good about what he said, but maybe the guy was just talking out the side of his mouth after all.
Please Stop Calling Me
Kids these days – and even people getting up toward their thirties – love the show “Spongebob Squarepants.” Lots of people do, even if it has gotten on plenty of parent’s nerves due to how much it’s on the TV. A couple of kids decided to have some fun with the senior yearbook quotes.
Gal on the left is the caller, guy on the right picks up the phone. The names have been covered over in order to protect their identities, but how great would it be if the guy on the right was actually named Patrick? It would almost be too good to be true. We’re trying to look at the tiny bit of text we can see, but we can’t see anything concrete. If anything, the little bit we have might just shoot the theory down.
A Little More to Go
Rithika Katpally has just finished high school, and there’s plenty of celebration. Not from her grandma, though, who is expecting Ms. Katpally to put on a white lab coat, loop a stethoscope around her neck, and start treating people who come in with boo-boos. Sorry, Grandma, it takes a little bit more time before she’s able to put her name on the door.
At the very least there’s college and medical school – easily eight years unless you try really hard to save some time – and then there might even be more school after that, not to mention having to learn pretty much constantly afterward. Just keep encouraging her, Grandma, and she’ll be able to get there eventually, at which point she can help you out with your bad back.
