No, We're Not Dead
Me and Lightning are not dead, incase you were wondering why both of us were not on yet. We had a health scare today.
Grade 12s decided it would be fun if they ran havoc on our school. They set crickets loose, one ran around wearing a mask carring a paint ball gun, and to top it off they contaminate our school with something. We've both been waiting outside for a couple of hours waiting to get chekced if we have whatever it was. I did/do but it was a minor case. Though I'm really worried because the little card I had also said "Major" and "Deceased At" on it. I'm left in the dark, and I have no idea how my friends are, especially Lightning. I really hope she's fine, she is my greatest friend (although I've had so few in my lifetime) and it would kill me if something horrible happened to her. I'm not kidding either, I'm confident that whatever it was is something that can be serious. My mom informs me that four people went to the hospital, plus I doubt the medical people would be wearing suits and masks if it was safe. It looked like that seen from E.T. Scary stuff. I'm staying home tomorrow and going to the doctor's. I don't care that I need to pick up my books to study for an exam, my health is more important than my grades. We were outside all squished together, so we were bound to breath something in. What a great birthday this has turned out to be for me so far. |
I will not read that O_o
But it sounds awful... Happy Birthday, Triforce ^___^ |
Ugh, sounds horrible! Who would do such a thing? :( Feel better.
|
I was going to drive Lightning home, but I got checked before her and I had to pick up my little brother. This was on the news too, I don't know to what scale but still on the news. *paces back and forth* *is worried* Lightning! Please be O.K.!
|
Dont worry, Im sure Lightnings fine.....
That sounds horrible! I hope they find who did it! I hope everyones okay! |
I can see some of whatever it was on my hand. But its very faint. I've washed my face, neck and hands several hundred times already.
|
So sorry this happened on your birthday…I can only imagine how scared you are. First of all I hope you’re okay and don’t suffer any side effects, keep us updated on that certainly. Have you tried calling Erica’s house? When was the last time you saw her at school? I’m…obviously very worried too, but again it’s got to be harder on you, let us know as soon as you can, please…?

And I had to be decontaminated. |
WHAT!? What did they contaminate the school with??

All I want for my birthday is to know that my friends are O.K. |
Ack so sorry.. Erm Happy Birthday tho ^_^
BTW: Why do ya call her Lightning? Ain`t her name Erica? XD |
Yes, but I prefer to say Lightning while online. I don't call her Lightning IRL. Sometimes I say Erica her. Thankgod she's alright though *goes off to bombard her with PMs* She had minor too.
|
I'm... fine. Pretty darn shaken, but fine. I seriously JUST got home.
That was the most disorganized thing I've ever seen, though. I... don't really know where to start. I will be blogging this pretty quickly (so I don't forget). So if you wanna know all the gritty little details, you can probably just look there. *doesn't feel like typing it just yet* I got those same little dots you did, T89... so they sent me to be "decontaminated" too. o.o; Then I had to go back in the line up (which consisted of 3 people, myself included, by that time). The purple dot things are fading, finally, but I can still see them. (I noticed them after you left, T89 @[email protected]) I'm okay, though. Just a little out of sorts, like I think I already said. @[email protected] And happy birthday again, lol. Although, I'm sure it was probably the worst one you've ever had. x_X;; |
Good to hear everything is fine, Erica... ^^

Purple dots? O_O Erm thats odd..
|
That's so horrible; I'm sorry that all of that happened. I hate that it was on your birthday, too, TRIFORCE89. I'm glad to hear that you're both okay, though. I hope whatever it was that they spread wasn't anything seriously dangerous.
|
Geez...that sounds like it really sucked Triforce and Erica...im glad to hear you guys are alright! Purple dots!? i wonder what the heck it is :\ well i hope you guys feel better, and happy birthday Triforce...but its probably not very happy for ya today is it? Well its just good to hear you guys are alright!
|
I’m glad you only both got minor then, in that case. Did you ever find out if school is going to be closed? @[email protected]; From what I understand no one really got what was going on and, as you said poorly organized but I’d be scared to go back after that. Heck I’m afraid to get neat paint in fear I’ll whiff too much of it. x.x;
|
It was kinda funny because after they said on the announcements that it turned your hand purple (before we were let outside), one of our friends coloured most of his hand purple with a marker. (We were in art class, so there were plenty around.) Lol, he ended up having to specially wash his hands too because they sort of didn't believe that it was just marker. XD
*is slowly feeling better now that she's near a computer* <_< There was never more of a time when I wished I had some phone numbers from you guys so I could max out my minutes by calling long distance to rant about stupid people pulling pranks. XD (Because I would have, too) |
Geez, sounds like a bunch of ignorant little bunch of immature snotheads @@. Lol, maxing out minutes, how many do you get anyways? I get, I forgot how much on my cell, but it never lets me down :P
~DragonTrainer:dragonite |
Isn’t your hands being purple a good thing though? o.o; That’d be cool! The sickness wouldn’t be…but yeah, purple!~
|
Some people are so retarded. Contaminating a school is not funny, and it's dangerous. I'm sorry if any of you friends got hurt, but it's good you are okay.
|
I imagine they’re going to be pretty severely punished…were they members of the school or what? Did they get caught *that just occurred to her*
Edit: Yes they were. Expelled I suppose. |
Er... I think I've got about $60 on the phone now... I dunno how many minutes that is... let along long distance. But it's directly connected to my mom's credit card, so I could easily order more, lol.
And... having your hand purple would NOT be a good thing. People with a heavier case than I had were told to basically take off their clothes... they had to change into these white suit... things. x_x; *was so glad she didn't have to do that* edit: It took me too long to type that. Anyway, I have no idea if they were caught - I'm guessing no, though. o.o; I'll probably have more updates tomorrow, as that's when they said they'd tell us about exams and everything. |

Oh, there weren't any fatalities. They said that the powder stuff wasn't lethal, it was just irritating.. but that's still scaring me. ><; They told us not to touch our mouth or anything, but before I realized that I might have it, I was doing that. x_x; It may just be me being paranoid of having gotten this.... thing, but my face is all itchy and stuff now. x_x;;
*gets a Coke to make her feel better* <_< |

Can't those loser seniors get put up for life on charges of bioterrorism? I'd certainly charge them with bioterrorism, inciting panic, and other charges (too bad they can't go to jail for being morons)...sorry that happened, especially since it's your birthday.
|
I bet this cost the school alot of money too.
|
My goodness! What's the world come to? I'd never go to that school agein, I'd be so scared...

Stuff is an everyday occurance at that other school. People had there arms broken in the beginning of the year at that one.
|
It's depressing how ignorant and violent some kids can be these days...no one's willing to lay down the law anymore =/
|
Oh gosh, if this happened at my school, I knowmy evil ***. principal would like, destroy the people would did that stuff. She's evil after all. People need to think about Newton's third law of motion.
|
That's so scary O_o; And rather stupid on behalf of the person/people who did it, I'm glad you're both okay ^^
|
According to the news. When and if the people are caught they can be fined and have time in jail. And the substance is Potassium Permanganate.
|
I'm reading news reports from various websites (some of which spelling our city wrong <_<) and it's pretty cool seeing it in a bunch of places. :O And apparently it's on the radio a lot too.
They'll probably catch the people through the tapes from the video cameras around the school. o.o |
Time for a science lesson! (eh, not really...I just googled potassium permanganate)
Potassium permanganate, KMnO4, is a purple crystalline compound with a metallic sheen. It is soluble in water, in acetone and in methanol, but it is decomposed by ethanol. Potassium permanganate is prepared by fusing manganese dioxide with potassium hydroxide to form the potassium manganate and then electrolysing the manganate solution using iron electrodes at about 60 degC. Potassium permanganate is widely used as a powerful oxidizing agent, as a disinfectant in a variety of applications, and as an analytical oxidant reagent in redox titrations. But what senior with an IQ low enough to take part in the prank would know how to make/obtain this stuff? o_O;; |
Oh, something happened today, our last day. We were in second period, and we had an evacuation drill. We thought it was just a drill, but after five minutes in the hot sun, we started wondeirng what was happing. The teachers weren't telling us anything, and we were impatient. The heat were blzaing, and after about a half an hour, we walked to a neighboring elemntary school. We stayed there for an hour an a half I think. Then we got word to come back to our school. We ate lunch, and it was a mess. Every student in the school was packed in the cafeteria. The principal told us there was a bomb thread made by an anonymus caller. The police and bomb detection squad and the bomb sniffing dog came. It was hectic, but in the end it was cool because all of my friends were saying they will miss me and each other. I felt wanted.
|
@[email protected]; Apparently it's available in most high school science labs, so they would have had access to the chemicals. Blah~
That's scary, Nick. ._.; I'd be so freaked if there was a bomb threat... because they barely told us anything yesterday so we all thought it was just... a normal prank and nothing serious. o.o; But a bomb threat? @@;; |
So there was a bomb threat? Did they find an actual bomb?
|
Yeah, but they didn't find anything. They police, bomb detection people, and the sniffing dogs searched. Nothing, all that waiting in the hot sun, for more than half of the day. Well, I'll never forget that last day of school, ever!
|
It just dawned on me that today is the last day of school before exams. And I'm here at home. Ooo I really would've liked to see some of my friends today incase I don't seem them over the summer. Yesterday isn't really the last day I want to remember. And Lightning's at school doing absolutely nothing.

The main health issues were to though who have asma (drat, I've studied life saving I should know how to spell that) and the idiots who decided to put their fingers in their mouth when they saw their hands were purple (Ooo, I bet this tastes good). But I think the 12s were clueless too. I didn't mind the crickets, it was the health scare pandamonium that was scary.
|
Ah, so it wasn't a germ...there go the bioterror charges ;_;
Come to think of it, this will probably mess up the school for years to come...I bet towards the end of the year every year everyone will probably have mandatory backpack inspections and things like that...they forced us all to have mesh backpacks after the rash of school shootings about 5 years ago and hired cops, which always made me uneasy, especially after a really mean-spirited one chewed me out for saying hello to some kindergartners when I was in 6th grade...he was just looking for an excuse to be mean to a kid -.- These stupid jerks ruin it for the rest of us all the time...no dances because someone brought weed to a dance, no water because someone brought in vodka, stuff like that... How widespread was the attack, by the way? Did the whole school get hit or just parts of it? |
Grrr… people these days… I hate the way things have become… I hope when they catch those freaks, they forcefeed them their little powder crap.
|
The whole school was on "lock-down" then evacuated. The entire school had to be "decontaminated".
|
Rofl, I found a cricket in school today. *brought it outside* :3
The powder was apparently on all of the railings and stuff. And we've got about 7 stairwells at least. =\ |
Ouch… they aren't purple stairwells, are they?
|
No, apparently the power just turns purple when it comes in contact with something moist - like skin. I dunno. @[email protected]; (It's sad that I don't know much, since I experienced it. XD;) But all the railings were normal colour, so...
|
We probably both got it in the art room. Since two people from there already had it and we were next to eachother the entire time. We probably bith touched the same thingg. Possibly a "contaminated" desk or something.
|
Grrr… *gets even madder at those SOBs*
Do this to my friends will ya? Kyaaaaah! Eat my knife! Seriously. |
