Last night, Susanna told me about something going on at school that I thought was funny.

Tomorrow is the last day of school, and lots of class parties are planned. Apparently Thursday is the last day that regular lunches will be held in the cafeteria, and Friday will be pizza and cake parties everywhere all over the school, or something like that.

So on Tuesday or so, some kids started sending text messages saying “Food Fight on Thursday… send to everyone you know” Sure enough, the text messages went viral real quick all over the school. So on Wednesday, the principal made an announcement over the school-wide announcement system saying that she had seen the text messages going around and that if there was a food fight on Thursday, all end of the year parties would be canceled on Friday.

Can you guess what the next round of viral text messages were? “No food fight on Thursday… send to everyone you know.”

Haha.. I think that is really funny. They valued the pizza parties more than the food fight, and it is incredible how fast information flies today. This is certainly not something I can tell my kids that mom and I experienced when we were in school too. Times are a changin.
