Sorry for updating two days in a row, but I literally just remembered this so I kind of have to let y'all know what happened.
Okay. So a couple of months ago my health class was talking about summer plans (I have no idea why), and this kid said that they were going to Connecticut for the summer. Another student said, "Wow, impressive." We all looked at them because it's only a five-ish hour drive there from where we are. And then the same kid who said "impressive" asked, "Where is Connecticut? It sounds... cool." Yeah. Here's the full conversation:545Please respect copyright.PENANAxnpL1FPik6
