On February 4 the question is 'You got trapped in the mall overnight with your BFF's. Make a list of things you would do? If I got stuck in the mall alone or with friends, I would probably find a bookstore with some cozy chairs and find a book to read or a few of them and relax, but in reality, now-a-days that could not happen for when 'last call is heard and the mall closes all the stores bring down the gates and lockdown, and the security guards walk around making sure no one remained flashing their flashlights everywhere.

Dork Drabble #10
On February 3 the question is 'If you were principal of your school for a day what would you do to make it more fun and exciting? If I were principal for a day at my old school, I would plan a scavenger hunt for the Freshman students they would need to find various tips about surviving high school. Sophomores/Juniors could search for various scores of sports and other activities and the Seniors could look for various college items. All will be posted somewhere or somehow throughout the school-10 points each. That is what I would do to make fun.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Fear of a Black Hat
Fear of a Black Hat, a Rusty Cundieff film, is one of my all-time favorite movies when I need to laugh. We’re talking Kentucky-Fried Movie territory. You want the uncut version, otherwise you don’t get the Ice Froggy Frog video (below) at the beginning or the discussion about artistic integrity in Cleveland. I own the cut version (😥)—couldn’t find the uncut version at that time, no extra money for it right now, but you aren’t me, so buy the uncut version.

Finding books in a mall would be one of the very few reasons I would go to the mall in the first place. To think of sitting after hours, relaxed with endless knowledge at my fingertips, sounds delightful. Ugh, but yeah, those darn gates!
Great drabble!! 💗💗Love your idea of the bookstore!💗
I like your idea of finding a bookstore to relax. But in my experience, malls usually have strict security after closing. It'd be tough to find a quiet spot like that. I'd probably try to find a safe corner and wait it out, maybe play some games on my phone to pass the time until morning.
I would head for the bed shop and make myself comfy write a few poems then maybe sleep.
