"Hello are you Mr Driesher?" Mr Lancer asked."Yes, that's me Principle of High School Pretoria North." He said."My old school." I mumbled. We got on the bus and the bus driver was the vice principal Mr Bester."Okay so a little heads up. No eating or drinking on the bus. Please that's the only rule on this bus." Mr Driesher said."Yes sir." Most of us answered as we got our phones out and kept ourselves busy.

Half hour later
"Mr Lancer...Can we maybe play a game like rapping or something?" Dash asked and Mr Lancer looked at the Principle and he nodded."Sure, no swear words please." He warned and Dash looked at me and Dan."Hey Dan, Lani I challenge you to a sing off." Dash said and Dan lifted up his one eyebrow."What do you say Lani?" He asked me."I don't know, it sounds fun so why not?" I said."Okay we go first!" Kwan said."We choose Thunder!" Dash said."So...what is your song?" Kwan asked. I got a glimmer in my eye."You'll see." I said."Okay then you start!" Dash said.

Lani:
So your still thinking of me just like I know
you should
I can not give you everything, you know I wish
I could
I'm so high at the moment, I'm so caught up in
this
Yeah, we're just young dumb and broke
But we still have love to give

While we're young dumb and broke
Young, young, dumb and broke
Young, dumb
Young, young, dumb and broke
Young, dumb
Young, young, dumb and broke
Young, dumb, broke high school kids

Dash:
Just a young gun with a quick fuse
I was uptight, I wanna let loose
I was dreaming of bigger things
And wanna leave my old life behind
Not a yes sir, not a follower
Fit the box, fit the mold
Have a seat in the foyer, take a number
I was lightning before the thunder

Kwan and Dash:
Thunder, Thunder, Thunder, thun-
Thunder, thun-thun-thunder, Thunder
Thunder, Thunder, thun-
Thunder, thun-thun-Thunder, thunder
Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning, then the thunder, thunder
Thunder, Thunder, Thunder

Lani:
We both have so much in common, we argue all the
Time
You always say I'm wrong, I'm pretty sure I'm
Right

Kwan:
They say you're basic, they say you're easy
You're always riding in the backseat
Now I'm smiling from the stage
While you were clapping in the nose bleeds

Dan and Lani:
While we're young dumb,
Young, young, dumb, and broke
Young dumb
Young, young, dumb, and broke
Young, dumb
Young, young, dumb, and broke
Young, dumb, broke high school kids
Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning, then the thunder, thunder
Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning, then the thunder, thunder

Dan:
Oh, yeah
Nah, yeah
Oh, no, oh, yeah
Lani:
Young, dumb
Young, young dumb, and broke
Lightning, then the thunder, thunder

Kwan and Dash:
Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning, then the thunder, thunder
Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning, then the thunder, thunder

Lani:
Young, dumb
Young, young, dumb, and broke
Young, dumb
Young, young, dumb, and broke
Young, dumb
Young, young, dumb, and broke
Young, dumb
Young, young, dumb, and broke
Young, dumb, broke high school kids

Dan and Lani:
Ya da da da da da da da, ya da da da da da da
Ya da da da da da da da
Young, dumb, broke high school kids
Ya da da da da da da da, ya da da da da da da
Ya da da da da da da da
Young, dumb, broke high school kids!

The whole class cheered and the principal was the one to vote who was beter."So sir, who won?" Dash asked."I really liked Young, dumb and broke." He said laughing a little. Dan and I cheered and did a little victory-dance-while-sitting. He always was open to the students to understand them more. I remember how crazy my old school get. From advertising something the school is doing to just doing something funny for the fun of it.
Before I knew it, we were outside the large gate. I felt sick in my stomach. We stopped in the parking lot and there I saw the entire school in their winter uniform ready to meet us. Dan must have noticed how nervous I was."I'm scared." I whispered."Here hide your face with this jacket." He said handing me my favourite grey jacket with the hoodie attached to it."Thanks." I said as I zipped up the jacket and putting on the hoodie.

We walked to the outside of the bus where they started to sing the South African national anthem. I love that anthem.
