You did great in such a limited word count :)

I like how there was just a raw, unfiltered response. The teacher handled it much the same I think I would have. After all, how do you condemn someone for reacting the same way you would, right? LOL

Excellent job.

Without those two words, this story would have little meaning. Instead they offer authenticity and humor to your flash. Made me smile. I like your teacher too.

I can vouch for the fact that, as a teacher, something very unexpected can make you laugh even when you know full well that it's inappropriate. Good on her for not punishing you! :)

This is a humorous story about a very wise teacher who demonstrated to the class that she would not tolerate such language. She called the guilty student inside so she could have a good laugh. I understand why she is the favorite.

humorous poem
it looks like someone is ready to kick the bucket
shoes can cause some madness when they don't fit
glad the teacher was still his or her favorite

Teachers are people, too, and it sounds like you both got caught en flagrante: you for swearing, her for finding it hilarious. She covered it like a pro, though --brought you inside so it gave the impression to everyone that you were in big trouble, when, in reality, you were her saviour from trouble with the School Board!!

Great story; I can picture it all. I hope this wins for you. xo

A tense moment after kicking the rock and totally losing it. I like the way you describe your panic by sweating bullets. A comic little episode which, fortunately, was well received by the teacher. Well done and good luck! Debbie

When kids first use those swear words that they have heard adults use there whole lives it can be so unexpected. Now, if the other kids heard you that might make your more popular.

Ha! Writing a story that makes sense and only using 50 words isn't exactly easy, but you nailed it. I've seen MF used as two words, one word, all caps, italics, with quotation marks.... The contrast of an eighth-grader feeling grown up and wearing high heels to school, but still with the mentality of a youngster who would kick a rock, is what made this funny for me. Well done.
