Not too original I know.
But now is hardly the time to be original when nerves are getting the best of you.
One of the things that can really irk a teacher is when students give you the impression of being unfair. Little do they realize how much you bleed for the job. Sleepless nights, ballpen drool and too much caffine (and nicotine) are just part of the job description.
And when a student glares
at you like you owe him this point or that point in the test (when I retruned their Long Tests earlier) it's just so disheartening. Who would want to teach after that? Well maybe the more hardened teachers. But here's the rub, there was going to be time to discuss the answers with me after we discussed it as a class.
Another point, people have criticized me for being too close with the students, and I'm beginning to think they're right.
Let's just say, someone proved my critics right. This has to be my single source of disappointment today. I jut really didn't expect it from this person at all. I was cursed and called by my first name in front of my students all in one joke.
Major lapse in judgment. If I had half a mind I should have...
But unfortunately no more brain cells left...
Nutrients depeted...
tabako o suukoto ga daisuki desu yo
I need it with my Coffee Bean... Chai Latte...
Spank me with a lil bit of heaven baby....
