I'm still grossed out by this.

Today, as I'm sitting in math, I see a kid, out of the corner of my eye, swat at a fly swarming around him. Naturally, I think nothing other than, "Ew, I hate flies." As time went on, I saw the fly pass by me a few times, which was really annoying. Sure enough, I felt it land on my shoulder. I brushed it off of me, and the first time, it wouldn't come off. Frustrated, I hit it again and it flew onto the table in front of me. As I looked down to see it's size, I was shocked to find that it wasn't a fly, but a large spider. I silently gasped as it crawled around on my table. I moved it with my notebook and it crawled on the side of the desk. I pushed the desk forward and worked on my lap. As it moved back up onto the desk, back and forth, and back to the corner, I pushed the desk even further. It disappeared on the side, so I tried to calm myself. As I looked up to see the board, I saw that it had jumped onto the girl in front of me! It was crawling up and down her back. I wanted to tell her, but didn't want to scare her too badly so that she leaned back in her seat and squished it on her back. I waited for it to move onto her chair. I tapped her slightly, and pointed at it with a disgusted face. She jumped up out of her seat and yelled, "Ew!" She pushed the chair away, obviously, making a scene. The teacher asked what the problem was and she screamed," It's a spider that looks like a mini tarantula! It has large, hairy legs with red spots!" He came over to try to get rid of it, but thought it might've been poisonous. A kid scooped it up with a piece of paper after it fell on the floor because the girl kicked the chair. I appreciated her kicking the chair towards me. My teacher, being a Buddhist, didn't want to kill it, so the kid put it in the trash can. Then we went about our lesson as it started. I had the chills for the rest of the day.

That'll teach me to go to math class.
