i’m bored and i cant stop thinking ab how much of a fever dream going to HS at Cassata was so i’m going to make a thread of all my favorite stories. feel free to add yours below if you went there too

so for my followers who don’t know, cassata was an alt school i went to for my severe PTSD. The other kids who went there ranged DRASTICALLY. Like, some kids were there bc their parents died and others got sent there bc they got caught vaping. & everything in between.

Bc it wasn’t a public school, there was no limit on age. So it was a high school, but some of my classmates were 13 and others were 23. They also did sliding scale tuition so some of the kids were dirt poor (like me) and paid less than $100 and others were MEGA rich.

Now that all that’s out of the way I’m gonna get to my favorite stories.

STORY 1: the first week I was there this 20 y.o man (i was 16) befriended me (we’ll call him Rick). He asked me if I wanted to meet some of his friends after school for lunch school was from 8:30-11:30). i was rly lonely and excited to make new friends so i said yes (part 1)

so 11:30 rolls around and i meet him outside. he’s alone. i ask where all his friends are. he says they bailed. cool w/e i’m still lonely & want friends. he walks me to a sushi restaurant close by. we’re eating & im bouncing my leg out of habit. he asks if i’m nervous (part 2)

I say no, and Rick replies “it’s okay to be nervous, i’m always nervous on dates.” and then he GRABS MY HAND UNDER THE TABLE. i don’t appreciate getting fooled into a date so i stop speaking to him after that. However, Rick is a recurring character in these stories. (END STORY 1)

STORY 2: i’m gonna keep this one short bc i’m not even mad ab it anymore but on Halloween the popular kids asked me to go to a haunted house w them. i hate haunted houses but i said yes anyway bc i wanted friends. we got high before we went in which was a mistake (part1)

I was way too freaked out to go inside the haunted house high so i told them id wait for them to go thru. long story short they ditched me took my keys & clothes & I had to find their houses on snap map & Maddy had to drive me all over fort worth to get my stuff back(END STORY 2)

STORY 3: one day the cops showed up at school which wasn’t uncommon bc sometimes they had the drug dogs go thru and sniff everyone. but turns out they were there to arrest Rick for showing up @ another students house and biting her neck so hard it drew blood.

STORY 4: once i was chatting w @karmaaceleste in english class and we were sitting close to this 14/15 y.o. girl who was taking to her friend and we started eavesdropping and out of the blue heard her say “oh don’t worry i’d NEVER fuck a dog tho” and i haven’t been the same since

STORY 5: So there was this sib set that i was rly close with. They were 19M, 15M, and 13F. I was in love w the 19 y.o. and really good friends with the 15 y.o.. They come up in a lot of other stories so imma call them John, Eli, and Emma. (part 1)

So i’m in a class w Emma and Rick and I notice Rick getting a lil too close to Emma. She’s oblivious to it bc she’s a child but since he’d been creepy w me before, I knew what was going on. The next day I saw Rick talking to Emma downstairs before classes started (part 2)

I went upstairs & told Eli that I saw Rick and Emma talking downstairs. And idk what happened or if anything even happened at all but what i DO know is that i never saw Rick within 20 feet of Emma ever again. (END STORY 5)

STORY 6: John Eli & Emma’s dad LOVED me and sometimes when he’d pick them up from school he’d honk his horn @ me, wave, and yell out the window “ITS THE BLUE HAIRED GIRL” and it made my day 100% of the time.

STORY 7: i was an absolute SIMP for John and he spent our entire senior year going back and forth on me. When we first met he asked me out on a date @ this cafe next door to school. I said “cool when?” he said “Wednesday.” Tuesday night rolls around. (part 1)

John asks if we can reschedule for Friday. Sure no problem. Thursday night rolls around “hey sorry can we do Monday?” This repeats for like 2 weeks. The last time he reschedules I ask one of my gal pals if she wants to go to the cafe w me instead (part 2)

long story short we get there & homie is THERE in the back of the cafe w his headphones on watching Youtube on his phone, doesn’t acknowledge me the whole time i’m there, and i leave before he does. remember, he asked ME out (END STORY 7)

STORY 8: I ended up going on a single “date” with John like 6 months after we met. I was so excited for it and then on my way there he texted me “hey can you actually pick me up at the stop sign at the end of my street i don’t want Eli to see us” and guess what i did (part 1)

There’s really not much else to that story other than Eli figuring it out himself and not giving a fuck lmao. i ended up simping for John until a few months into college once I met Dean (END STORY 8)

STORY 9: ok i saved the best for last so if you made it all the way to the end of this thread, this is your reward. So one day after school i was walking to my car and saw a bright orange paper in my windshield. I opened it up and it was this!!!!!! (part 1)
