Prank Gone Really Wrong

Hello everyone. I would like to share with you an interesting story.

I, personally, am a student who enjoys studies and likes learning. Although I hate writing on paper, I enjoy the learning process and collecting new knowledge. Unfortunately, there are only a few people like me in my school. 
The rest, on the other hand, simply hate studies, and school in general. They simply loathe the idea of even opening a textbook, or teachers coming to class to start their sessions. Among these, there are the class clowns who think of clever and humorous ways to spend time, in a way that will make the whole class laugh.

The story I am about to tell you is about one of such class clowns, who did a prank, that went really wrong.

I was in seventh grade, in a History lesson. History was one of the most boring lessons for me, and hence one of the best times for the class clowns to devise clever plans. As the teacher was teaching, one of the students, with the teacher's permission, walked out of his seat to sharpen his pencil next to the bin. I watched him as he walked back to his seat, and something shocking happened: He fainted on the spot! I had to admit, I was so petrified that I felt like I was about to faint myself! I had never seen a person faint in front of my eyes before, and to be frank it was terrifying. The history teacher, being the innocent yet boring character she was, was so busy writing the dates of the reigns of the various Mughal Emperors, that she didn't even notice a child that had fainted in her class. In fact, she didn't realise, until one of the kids informed the teacher. The History teacher panicked, and kept panicking for more than 10 seconds, until she finally asked a few students to carry him. I was looking at him with fright, lying unconsciously. It was then that the moment of truth came to me, with a mischievous smile developing on his face. 
He was faking the act all along! I wasn't really surprised, as it one of the students who never enjoyed classes. In fact, I was amused, and decided not to tell anyone.

It was truly humorous, walking with the entire class and the teacher, carrying a "patient" who wasn't even having a problem! We were looking silly in front of everyone who saw us, which embarrassed me a little bit. Usually, I would say to myself, "It doesn't matter if we're looking silly. There's an unconscious person and we need to take him to the clinic fast!", except, that wasn't really the case.

As we finally reached the clinic, the nurse had noticed all of us with the "unconscious" student. The history teacher, after a series of loud huffs and pants, told that the student had fainted. The nurse questioned exactly what happened, and the embarrassed history teacher couldn't say anything, considering that she'd been busy writing dates. A student told what happened, and the nurse told that she will start with an injection that will awaken the student.

This was when the real fun occurred. The nurse took a look at the student before the injection, and smirked. Probably the nurse had also noticed that he was faking it. Instead of waking him up and scolding him, she exclaimed that if the patient is awake while the injection is being taken, it will cause an instant blood rush, so  high that the heart will pump so fast, it will end up stopping permanently. This made the child wake up instantly and scream with fear, pleading the nurse not to give the shot. Everyone realized what happened and laughed a lot. The history teacher, on the other hand, was cross, and looked like she was soon to contact the child's parents.

The embarrassed look on his face as he realized he screwed up was hilarious. Of course his prank did not go well as intended, but it did give off a lot of laughs, and of course a meeting with the principal.

Thank you for reading this story, and I hope you enjoyed it.

The Dunning-Kruger Effect: The learning Curve

Image
Hello, and welcome to another article of Comic Chronicles!  Learning is one of the most common processes seen in every human. Of course, we learn something new all the time, starting from the very day we get born. We often associate learning with simply collecting new information. This is partially true, but learning also has a second dimension: The confidence gained or lost during the learning process. Already seems confusing? Well, not to worry, in this article we'll be talking about the Learning Process in both dimensions in detail, with something known as the Dunning-Krugger effect. The above is a visual representation of the learning process, which we will be looking at in Detail: 1. Starting out: When you learn something, of course you learn from the basics, which is meant to be easy, and, of course, when you find something easy, your confidence gains. 2. Mount Stupid: This is where your initial confidence gets you; To a point where you know almost nothing yet, yet you feel o

Managing Emotions is more important than you think!

Credit: goodtherapy.org Hello everyone. I know my blog is named "Comic Chronicles", but this article is about something not so comic, although I would request your attention on this one. We all know what emotions are. They are the little things that influence our mind during certain situations. Emotions are neurophysiological, meaning that they influence both the state of the mind and our body. We all tend to get scared when we see something scary, for example. Our body will feel a minor adrenaline rush, our brain tends to feel a sense of temporary panic, and we often tend to jump or scream. These are all just parts of the emotion of fear, and most of the other emotions usually follow the same pattern as well. If you think that emotions are nothing but a minor part of our daily lives, then you are wrong. Emotions affect the state of mind, as you know, but also indirectly influence the decisions you make, which can happen either in a good way (such as when fear forces you to a

Breaking the Social Norms for the Aged

Hello everyone, and welcome to another article form Comic Chronicles. At the time of writing this article, the year is 2023, and we are living in Gen Alpha. When we compare our current generation to the previous generation, we will be able to notice that our current society has much less social barriers, and we are under less expectations from society as a whole. Who knows, maybe in there future generations, more an more barriers of social expectations may be eradicated! However, there is one generation that we must consider: The generation of our grandparents.  I will use two poems to further explain this interesting topic, which are 'Grandma Climbs a Tree' by Ruskin Bond, and 'My Grandma' by Victoria Cornwall. The former of the two narrates poetically the story of the poet's grandmother, who is a young-spirited woman who loved to climb trees. However, she is viewed as peculiar and adamant by her family members and others. Eventually, she receives an opportunity to
