We've all been there: The first day of Kindergarten. Would you believe me if I told you I got in trouble on my very first day of school ever? I'm not lying when I tell you that I did.
On my old school's playground, there was a big net in the shape of a spider web that tied up to a three-story-high building (Sort of??) with a bunch of holes where kids could climb up and hang out with their friends.
Five-year-old me didn't have any friends and didn't know the names of anyone, so when she saw a bunch of kids at the top of the spider web (That's what we called it), she immediately climbed up there.
Okay, I'm done talking in third person.
I chilled with a bunch of kids at the top of the spider web and had a lot of fun. Here's an important detail: I used to have a fear of heights. I don't anymore and love being as high as I can but I used to hate being high up. Something I've always wanted to do is go sky diving or bungee jumping so my family thinks I'm a bit weird.
Anyway, when recess was over the teachers called everyone into a line at the building to go back inside. I saw all the kids getting off of the spider web and going down to their class. However, because I was so terrified of heights I didn't know how I could get down.
All the other kids were lined up except for me, who was sitting alone terrified. My teacher noticed I wasn't there and saw me at the top of the spider web. What do you think happened?
Okay, pause. At my old elementary school, we had a thing called Dojo Points. There were good Dojo Points and there were bad Dojo Points. To get a good Dojo Point you'd have to do something good and to get a bad Dojo Point you'd have to do something bad.
For every fifty good Dojo Points you managed to get you'd receive an award. If you got a bad Dojo Point, a notification would be sent to your parents and they'd let your parents decide your fate.
My teacher realized I wasn't in the line and I was still on the playground, locked eyes with me, and screamed, "LILLYAN! GET OVER HERE! YOU'RE GETTING A BAD DOJO POINT!"
I can't remember how I managed to get down but I never got that Dojo Point.
