Essay on a funny incident in School?
Answers
Answer:
Brief context, I’m in the Honors Program at Fordham, which means that our core classes are for students only in Honors, which means we all know each other pretty well and usually push each other towards academic excellence, usually. It also means that we’re more comfortable doing things in this smaller seminar class than we would in other non-seminar classes where we don’t know everyone.
We had just started reading The Tempest, and our professor was giving us all of the contextual information that we needed to get a better appreciation of it. In particular, he was examining the power dynamics of the people on the ship, during the storm, in the first scene.
He explained how shocking it would have been to Gonzalo that the boatswain would order the passengers to go below deck when one of the passengers was the king himself. He said, “Back then to invoke the name of the king was to invoke the power of divine right. Back then, it meant something. It had the power to make a man fall to his knees in an instant in service to the throne.”
Immediately, my mind was gifted with an idea. The next time one of us said, “in the name of the king,” I would be ready. Slowly and subtly, I moved my seat back from the large table we were all around and inched forward to the edge of my seat. Then I waited.
He finished his explanation, and about a minute later, he continued reading the lines and approached the moment. I was tense and felt myself tingling with excitement as the rest of the class remained unaware of my plans.
Without hesitation, I instantly dropped my right knee to the floor and my left arm to my side propped my right arm at a 90-degree angle across my left knee, and lightly bowed my head. At once, I said in my most formal and knightly tone: “my liege.”
Similar to this but probably I bowed my head a little more in class.

“The power to make a man fall to his knees in an instant.”
This was the funniest thing that happened in my Lit class this past semester.

(I don’t think that I kneeled the 100-percent accurate way in class, but it was close enough for the situation)
I can’t fully express in words the fear of my friend Sam, who was sitting right next to me as this happened. I moved so quickly that there was no time in between when he said it and when I was on the ground. She screamed, “OH MY GOD!” and put her hand to her heart and gasped for breath after it. The whole class moved to a still as I kneeled and the professor halted his reading.
Silence gripped the room for a moment.
Then, we all burst out laughing at how spontaneous, how chaotic, how creative what I just did was. The professor tried to continue the lesson after a bit of laughing but for the next few minutes each time he wound up saying, “Dammit Ben, I can’t focus anymore.” and just kept laughing.
He told me after we finished the semester that that was one of the funniest things that has ever happened in class due to how dedicated I was to performing it and how unexpected it was.
