[ WP ] you 're reincarnated as a ghost at your old high school , you can watch and observe but are only allowed to change 1 thing- what do you do ?

`` You're a different kind of evil, I must say that,'' Andrew informed me as we hovered over the English hall and watched a group of sophomores scramble their way to their next class. 
 
 Andrew looks like hell in all honesty, and I kind of wished for better company just because I get tired of looking at him. He got hit by a car crossing a street in the historic district halfway through his freshman year. Mangled beyond repair, closed casket funeral, all that jazz. His left leg is twisted around a total 180 and one of his arms is missing. The left side of his face is crushed in. He still bleeds too, but since he is n't alive and we are n't really in this world, it just drips and disappears. He does n't feel it ( he never did to begin with ), but it's horrible to have to stare at all day nonetheless. Once and a while the students catch a glimpse of him too ( it happens ) and rumors abound for a few weeks. 
 
 I do n't know why I honestly came back to haunt the high school. Traveling around as a ghost is a royal bitch to be honest. It's complicated. Physics does n't really work when you hit the afterlife; at least not the way you expect it to. Honestly, the high school was the first place that popped into my head when the overdose hit me. That first trip is easy. You go to where ever you're thinking about. I'd been out of my mind and thinking about my high school days, I guess. I do n't really remember. I barely remember dying. 
 
 In retrospect, I should have haunted the physics department at my university. You know, left some notes on the board and hope a bright student or a janitor starts working on my plight. 
 
 Being a ghost allots you to one change to the world, no questions asked. Megan, the ghost from the girl's bathroom on the math hallway explained that to me when I first showed up. She wasted hers by popping out the catalytic converter on her ex-boyfriend's Accord. I do n't blame her really; three years of dating and the guy ca n't even be assed in to showing up to her funeral. But, a waste is a waste nonetheless. He got a job as a mechanic, married another girl from the grade below them, and now his kids go here. Megan slams the door on them in the bathrooms once and a while, but more to `` build up some character'' and less because she holds a grudge. 
 
 Andrew has actually traveled a bit, one time he met the soul responsible for the death of Stalin. I mean, there's a use for your one change. You could topple world powers. You could give the world new technology. 
 
 I did n't feel like traveling too much though. Being dead in itself proved exhausting. The high school was actually an all-right choice in the end. As for the one change thing, I was never a `` new world order'' type anyway. 
 
 I laughed, `` Hey, makes life more interesting for us. I do n't think any of the freshman have made it to class on the science hallway on time all semester.'' 
 
 Andrew could only shake his head, shaking ectoplasmic blood that quickly disappeared before it reached the floor. 
 
 Hope you like bottlenecks, kids. I used my one change. The doorways between halls are now half the size of the hallways.
