User blog:Spaghettitiger/An Issue That Shouldn't Exist

A couple days ago, I was doing testing right

And within 5 minutes of walking in I look up and see a kid a few desks away holding a knife

Not like a kitchen knife, a little black switchblade

So internally I'm obviously freaking out.

I look over again a couple minutes later and see him stabbing his friend's water bottle and complaining about how long it took him to sharpen it.

My thought process at this point is

"Oh god what do I do should I tell the teacher what if he hears me and gets angry what do I do what do I do"

Then the test starts and I'm just

On edge

Because I'm a cautious person just generally

I look both ways before crossing the street

I constantly monitor the heat when I'm cooking

I yell at my brother for running with scissors (and then he yells back asking why I hate him so much and blame him for everything and am so mean to him all the time but that's a different story)

Once I finished the test, I was still on the verge of a panic attack because thERE WAS A GUY WITH A KNIFE TEN FEET AWAY

I was just counting down the minutes at that point.

I'm still unsure whether I should report it.
