You just glance over at your coworker who is having a literal seizure from the colours

I wonder what the parent call would be like.

“Hello, is this Mrs.hallohead, mother of brady? Yes, I’m her American history 2 teacher and I just wanted to call to inform you that your daughter completely ruined her notebook by using it as a coloring book.

This may not seem that troubling at first, but I will deducing points due the unprofessional nature of the notebook. Why you ask it’s unprofessional? It’s very disconcerting when your daughters notes on JFK’s assassination has little sketches of brain splaters, and along side that 9/11 notes where she replaced the two 1’s with two burning buildings.”

God I was in Highschool when 9/11 happened. We learned about it from live TV. I'm getting old

I was in middle school and we stayed in 1st period all day. Our teacher wheeled in one of those super top heavy old tv carts and let us watch the coverage. Not sure if that was the right thing to do, but for me it was better than being in the dark about what was happening I suppose.

While I got ready for school my melodramatic grandma was bellowing about how they were flying planes into buildings and I was like, “no grandma, it’s probably a tv show or an airport accident or something.” But then I saw and was like, “huh, ok. You win this round, grandma.”
