Also known as Public Display of Affection; the core reason I hate going to school on Valentines Day. Not that there's anything wrong with people showing how much they love each other, but this is also that time of year when all of my teachers are at their worst. Today I decided to be nice and buy some roses for my girlfriend as well as some close friends of mine.
First, I got in trouble for bringing the roses by some random teacher I don't even now ("There are children that are allergic to flowers in this school.). I had to go outside in the freezing cold and clean the doors off for that. Next I got in trouble for turning one of the roses black using ink with the Art teacher's permission by the guidance counselor. My punishment was I had to spread fliers around for the new "Gardening Club" the school was going to have while wearing flowers in my head, which is really only bad because the juniors kept pulling my hair to get them out and I'd get in even more trouble. After a brief respite, I got in trouble again for giving my girlfriend the black rose and giving my friends the red roses outside after reviewing the allergen list the nurse has (after signing a "no disclosure" contract for the nurse) by the principal for "unauthorized leaving of school property" as well as "three accounts of Public Display of Affection". I was immediately punished with lunch duty, which is basically just cleaning the floor, and having to write a reflection explaining my "rebellious actions".
Near the end of the day I was called to the office to discuss whether or not I should be given the true punishment for the sum of my actions. I told the principal that my actions were justified since we are allowed to give people gifts as long as they are appropriate for school, and also I took into account allergies and other things (even though, I don't think the roses actually could have triggered an allergic reaction) like student exclusion (asked everyone if they wanted some flowers, most told me no or laughed). The principal told me that what I did wasn't in anyway appropriate for school, especially inking one of the flowers since I was spreading "rebellion". I was told that at the end of the day I was to go to the Science room for detention where I would stay at 3:00 to 6:00.
