Watch the Super Bowl XLVII Properly

Reporter

Hey all you football fans. I am for an update on your beloved sport. Everybody enjoys a good game, but with it can come such scandal.

Above all are the parties, and with parties comes the coveted food. Loosen your pants and open your mouth! Seven layer dip, Scoops, salsa, brownies, shriveled vegetables discarded in the corner.

Last week, I walked into my science classroom and noticed a sign near the white board. It read, “Warning: Midterms are closer than they appear.” I’m sorry but that is just such a bad joke…and I didn’t laugh. I immediately had flashbacks to my eyes being completely bloodshot, the feeling you get when you realize that you needed to have those forty-two Spanish flashcards memorized by, yesterday, and the sweet taste of stress. Nobody likes to take tests, except for maybe that one kid in your class that hands in their test nearly half an hour before everyone else.
