my cousin was in an accident when we were in HS...the rumor got around school within 2 hours that i was in an accident and it didnt look good. my best friend was histerical b/c she hadnt seen me yet that day and she really thought it was me. i had to go to the Nurse's office and tell everyone i was there and ok. sad thing was though, my cousin really was in a real bad accident and she had minor brain damage...
but thats how fast word gets around at a HS. they suck!
