Photobomb

!

On a class trip to NYC, my teacher

made all of the students pose for a

pic in front of the Statue of Liberty.

There were tons of birds around, and

as soon as I stood still for the photo,

a pigeon flew up and perched on my

head! I yelled and it flew off right away,

but my teacher actually captured the

pigeon on my head and my screaming

face in the photo! My hair felt so yucky

for the rest of the day, but the worst

part was my teacher putting

the pic in a slideshow of the

class trip. Ugh! — LiLi,NJ
