Prisoner escapee

A whole bunch of people are like really mad at a certain guy right now. Yesterday, a prisoner escaped from the police in Palatine, and like all the schools had to enforce a 'soft lockdown'. What that means is that we actually don't have to be locked in our rooms hiding from view for the whole day, that's a real lockdown. For soft lockdowns, we can do whatever, aka regular classes, except we just can't go outside.
So, the police didn't catch that guy until about three hours ago, and today was our school picnic. Hey, we did have to pay a couple of bucks for pizza and stuff. Well, aren't "picnics" supposed to outside. So, pizza, pop, and ice-cream inside and a bunch of games...best picnic ever *note the sarcasm*.
Actually, from my perspective, it really wasn't that bad. We played 'spoons' and had an assembly. They were like a percussion group that used trash cans to make music. It's pretty cool about that they came from Northwestern, I wanna go there when I'm in college.
