Pons has many stories from high school that aren't the average tale for a student. Just during her second week at school, she made quite the fashion statement, sharing with Young Hollywood, "The theme of the homecoming was Pirates of the Caribbean so... I came in a pirate suit."
She went on to explain how she got a black eye on her first day of school. "I wanted to play flag football, and I didn't know that in flag football, you're supposed to get the flag, you're not supposed to tackle anyone. So obviously when I tackled this guy, he like pushed me away and when he pushed me away, he hit my eye."
It shouldn't come as a surprise that Pons used many of her own stories, like these, for her book Surviving High School.
