Rules Quickwrite

    My first thought of something I have done against the rules brings me back to kindergarten. I had half days in school, so I went to the daycare for the other half waiting for my mom to get off work. Almost every day I had a juice box, and for some reason I didn’t like to throw them away. I would throw the actual box and plastic straw away, just not the plastic wrapper around the straw. You know what I am talking about, the plastic wrapper around it that you lose half the time anyways?
    I would hold the juice box in one hand, and the straw wrapper in the other, walk around the classroom for a little bit (to wear of suspicion of others) then… BOOM!!! I did it, I nonchalantly dropped the wrapper to the ground.
     //I realize this story is really idiotic. It would have taken the same time and energy to just throw the wrapper into the trash rather than having elaborate plans to litter across the classroom.
But whatever.
I was 5, in kindergarten.//
    I would get super anxious of being caught, I went day after day as a 5-year-old criminal.
    I was never caught.
        Or they didn’t care.

I loved the point of view of the little kid, thinking he was the stuff when he dropped wrappers in to the ground. Even if pollution is single handedly only your fault, it was a funny story of a little kid breaking the “law”. Great job and keep it up.

Nice, I bet they are still looking for you to this very day. Keep an eye out. It’s okay though. Everyone wants to be a rebel to basic rules.

Your writing is really animated, it sounded like a script a comedian would use. I also find it really funny how you knew dropping the wrapper on the floor was wrong, but you'd do it anyways. I would sometimes drop trash on the floor when I was younger because I was too lazy to take it to the trash. I loved this, awesome job!

I’d say they didn’t care. This is also a “The Thug Life Chose Me” situation if I’ve ever seen it.
