I think that the subject matter of this article is quite obvious, considering the title, but for those who don't understand: it's about vomit...
Okay, I live in a small town called Manitouwadge, in North-Western Ontario, a place as vast as it is boring.

It's even boring in map form.
Well a few months into Grade One our teacher announced that we'd be taking a field trip to Pukaskwa National Park. For those who do not know (all of you?), Pukaskwa is located just south of Marathon (another small North-Western Ontario town)and is basically just a big forest next to a big lake (Lake Superior). It isn't exactly the most exciting place in the world, but it's far more exciting than sitting around learning, eh? (See how I reinforced the Canadian stereotype there?)

It's... nature-y?
Well anyways, in the years prior to this while on family vacations I had slept while in the car, so never really experienced the travelling part of trips. As I was one of the first few to board the bus, I decided to sit near the back, because who doesn't like sitting near the back of the bus?

This picture doesn't do the experience any justice.
Before we got underway the teacher asked every student whether they wanted some Gravol. Since I hadn't a clue what this 'Gravol' was, I decided to say no. (The first among a series of bad decisions.) When the bus got underway me and several others in the back started to play that game where you bounce off your seat whenever the buShakespeare a bump. (Hey you try and find entertainment on a bus for an hour, when you're six!)
About half-an-hour into the drive I began to feel a little queasy, so I stopped participating in the 'game' and just sat still. I didn't think there was anything to fear, as I was just a moronic six-year-old... Oh, how I was wrong.
When we finally arrived at our destination my teacher called for everyone to begin exiting the bus, little did I know that this would be the straw that broke the camel's back. As I rose about of my seat, my small stomach did a back-flip, and its contents vacated. Onto the girl standing in front of me.

Like this... but vomit.
You know how you always assume that people will eventually forget about these kind of indiscretions? They lied. At seventeen people still occasionally bring this up.

No, it sounds to me like the problem is probably between your keyboard and chair. Are you wearing your lucky Internet shirt?

Tell me about it. My mom still gives me Shakespeare to this day (I'm 29) about how I destroyed her vagina.
Giving birth to me that is, not the way some of you sickos are thinking of, because my penis is nowhere as big as an 8 pound baby

No, that one got cream cheese all over it. I'm wearing my lucky school shirt... Ooh that might be the problem.

Ahh it's a PICNIC error that you are experiencing with the pictures. (Problem in chair, not in computer)

If you give a young child the chance to choose a seat on the bus they will choose the back, because all the fun bouncing makes up for the vomit.

Older kids like to bounce in the back of the bus, but it's not the bouncing you're thinking of.
