The One Where I Hide Under A Baseball Cap

I had no idea, up until tonight, of the usefulness of the baseball cap. I always thought they were only good for blocking out sun and giving you really bad hat hair. I learned tonight that if you tilt your head down low enough on your desk during boring classes, you can hide behind the brim and fall asleep unnoticed! Or in my case, you can roll your eyes and make faces everytime that annoying classmate speaks up.

Thursday nights my dreaded English class takes place. I hate hate HATE English class. And I know for sure that I do because we just spent a few hours discussing a 16-page essay on the word Hate. My class is filled with nerdy linguists who are capable of churning out numerous pointless "deep" thoughts on ONE MEASLY SENTENCE!

Teacher: "...he goes on to say 'one of us will be gone, one mind less, one world less...'"

Annoying ass kiss-ass classmate: <interrupting> "I think it means that his mind is an embodiment of his soul, his inner being, his consciousness that only he is aware of, in a sense, his world."

Teacher: <closing her eyes in concentration, nodding in agreement> "Wow, that is very insightful, beautifully stated. Well done."

Meanwhile, I'm hiding behind my brim, rolling my eyes and making faces, carefully inspecting my fingernails and daydreaming about the day I get to eat at Sonic.

Baseball caps are the shit.
