Someone please explain to me the trend of wearing short cocktail dresses and sneakers. And wearing them to parking garages to take pictures? I don’t understand this generation

I stg I saw an EAGLE on the interstate and poor guy had a broken wing and just looked at me all helpless and all I could do was keep driving and hope no one else hit him but also know he was probably going to because he was in the middle of the interstate 😥

Quote of the day: “You’re SUPPOSED to have a bad picture in 9th grade. That way you can go back and laugh at it later.”

9th graders are honestly such a joy

I knew being a first year teacher during a pandemic would be hard, but seriously someone should have given me a nice little heads up because this is absolutely BRUTAL

[nicole @nicoledakes]

@Eli2737 My students can’t even find the homework assignment that I’ve posted in 3 different places

[nicole @nicoledakes]

Why do I automatically assume a couple just got engaged any time they post a picture together
