When I was in high school, I used to make up stupid/funny excuses all the time. Because having a morning coffee was always more important than actually being in class.

On one ocasion, I was alreaey late for school and would bearly make it in time. I got a call from a friend who wanted to have a cup of coffee with me. I got coffee with her and missed my first class in the morning. Just as I was walking into school, I ran into my professor and she was really pissed about my absence.

She confronted me and asked me why was I late. I didn't have a prepared answer and I already used all the good excuses in the past so I told her a bird shat on me when I was walking to school so I had to go back home to change and wash my hair. She rolled her eyes as she was awear of my stupid lies. :)
