Once upon a time, I was in high school. And when I was in high school, I put together an anthology of short stories about the silly situations I got myself into with the boys I was chasing or who were chasing me. I will share one of them, for three reasons:
- It's about food! So, it's on topic.
- It's utterly ridiculous.
- My friend (who also makes an appearance in the book as "unequivocally the worst thing to ever happen to me") recently reminded me of it.
This excerpt from "Boys: It's a Four Letter Word, Too // An Anthology of Mishaps" has been edited for clarity. Though, generally, it's me as an 18 year old making observations about love in this world.
