This is a collection of embarrassing stories and random moments that never come up in conversation from MHS 2026 seniors.
EMBARRISING STORIES
“I was walking to school from lunch and my friend and I got Dairy Queen. I still had my Dr. Pepper and we were walking up the stairs and I asked my friend what she would do if I pushed her down the stairs, and the next step I took after I said that I face planted on the stairs and my Dr. Pepper went everywhere. While I’m on the stairs a freshman laughs in my face. And days later I was walking around with a huge bruise on my leg.”
-Kambri Stein
“I fell down the main staircase last year, I screamed really loud and my phone smacked pretty loudly on the ground and everyone was looking at me. I got up and finished
going down the stairs but I sprained my ankle and couldn’t make it to my regional hockey tournament that weekend.”
-Anonymous
“I fell asleep in math class and was
woken up by my friend after the bell rang. I jokingly asked them if I had been
snoring and a random girl I’ve never really talked to emphatically went ‘yes…very loudly’ and walked out. I wanted to
spontaneously combust out of
embarrassment.”
-Anonymous
“It was at the old high school and I think my sophomore year. One morning Mr. Boehm was late for jazz band, and all the doors were locked. I tried to pick the lock to the band room so we could set up. While picking the lock, I think some pencil led or something got stuck in it. I tried to get it out, but I accidentally broke the lock. So for the next few periods we had to use the back door until someone fixed the lock.”
-Anonymous
“I spilled green paint all over the locker room in the old school and now Morast calls me the arts and crafts bandit.”
-Gavin Fry
“Slipped in the mud while walking to the Walmart, had to get new pants”
-Anonymous
“During the first game of softball my junior year, a softball flew into my eyeball off a hit and fractured my orbital floor and ethmoid bone.”
-Talyia Woods
“In junior year during the middle of a band concert I got a bloody nose and had to run off the stage.”
-Kylan Dahl
RANDOM FAVORITE MOMENTS
“The fabled ‘Hess’s cat in the Dryer’ story. Ms. Hess was doing her laundry like normal, taking clothes out of the washer and into the dryer. Ms. Hess closes the door, not suspecting a thing. The dryer slowly starts to rotate, and, oh so faintly, she hears something. She hears the world’s tiniest, most innocent little ‘meou?’ OH NO!! SNUGGLES!!! Ms. Hess rushes over to the dryer and quickly turns it off. She
gently opens the door… and there’s Snuggles, a gently rotated cat that is shockingly
unbothered. At this point poor Hess was in tears, and grabbed Snuggles out of the dryer… At this point Hess is always too busy laughing to actually finish the story, so that’s all I
remember.”
“Honestly going back to back with a senior duo in speech. At WDA and state we went back to back. The seniors got first at WDA and we got second at state, then they got 3rd and we got 4th.”
