KHS hallway etiquette

KHS hallway etiquette
Kevin Campbell

To make your six minutes between classes as fun and memorable as possible, here are a few tips on how to properly behave in the KHS hallway.

1.   You are the most important person in any and all hallways.  Never forget this. (All the other tips stem from this fact.) Everyone wants to bow to your will and make your six minutes between classes as enjoyable as possible, so take advantage of that. School is mostly about enjoying yourself, so everyone wants to make sure you have a positive passing period.

2.   Everyone is waiting with bated breath to hear what the dreamy guy who sits behind you in math class just texted you, so please squeal at the top of your lungs about it. Make sure you’re loud enough so everyone can hear you over their iPods.

3.   Feel free to stop dead in the middle of the hallway any time you want. Preferably, clog up the entire hallway with a group of your 12 closest friends. Your socialization is more important than everyone else’s desire to get to class.

4.   Strolling leisurely with your boyfriend/girlfriend is required. You must flaunt your relationship as often as possible. The slower you walk, the more in love you are. Holding hands is mandatory, but you must stand far apart so the hand-holding is obvious and you take up as much room as possible, making your relationship impossible to ignore.

5.   If you do not need all six minutes to get to your next class, walk as slowly as possible. Everyone is glad to match your pace; they could not care less that they will get to class late as long as you are not lamely early.

6.   It can be tricky to get the volume level right on your iPod. To make sure your volume is appropriate for the hallway, turn to the boy walking next to you and ask if he can hear your music. If the answer is no, turn up the volume. If it is yes, turn up the volume just to be sure.
