CLASSY

if there is one thing i know, it is school. i have lots of experience at it. in fact, most of my life has been spent at school. i never really minded it until i got to byu and had my first chemistry class. it was at that point that i didnt like school anymore. which is why i became a teacher.

you see, school doesnt suck nearly as much when you control every aspect of the classroom. no one is there to tell you what to do, how to do it or why you are wrong. instead, you get to do it to others. what goes around comes around (although, in this particular instance, the order is reversed).
so what is it like molding minds like silly puddy? bouncy. by that i mean, every day i witness something new that i never would have expected. here are a few (mild) examples completely stipped of context:
"when i grow up i want to work at an elementary school so i can meet chicks."
"you nasty. you farted in the bathroom."
"im allergic to peanuts." "why?"
"i can taste it in my mouth!"
"im gonna eat it without swallowing."
"what month is may?"
"...and for some reason it was christmas."
ah, the future is bright.
