Guess what? I actually have some humorous stories to share with you.
Last week I was returning to my classroom after lunch and I hear “She’s coming, she’s coming.” I’m thinking, “Oh no. What have they done this time?” I get up to my classroom and I see a toilet paper barrier (like yellow police tape) around my window. I look down and there is a dead bird. Yes, a dead bird…in my classroom. Side note: sometimes birds fly into my classroom but they always make it out.
Here is our theory:
A bird flew in the window and then somehow turned around and tried to fly out. Instead of going out the open side, it flew into the side that was closed. And yes, there are pictures. Check out facebook.
Not for the faint of heart (or stomach)
I am staying at someone’s house and I grabbed a box of cereal out of their cupboard. I noticed black specks in it but I thought they were seeds b/c the cereal contained dry fruit. After several bites, I realized the fruit in the box wouldn’t have seeds. I picked up one of the “seeds,” examined it, and thought it looked like a seed. I ate it and realized it didn’t crunch. I leaned closer into my bowl and saw the other “seeds” had legs. (This can be fairly common. Bugs do get into our food.) And yes, I quickly dumped the cereal and moved onto box #2-one without “seeds.”
For the end-of-the-year banquet (junior-senior banquet), the juniors make a senior predictions movie. I had to take a few students off campus to film one clip. As we were coming back, one student wanted a coke so I pulled over by a boutique. It happens to be on a roundpoint and there was no place to park. The other students told me to just keep driving around the roundpoint. I went around once but the student still didn’t have his coke. I went around again and started to get dizzy. At least this time I saw him talking to the boutique guy. We started around again. I told them I wouldn’t be able to do more than 3 times because I was getting sick. Fortunately we saw the kid on the side of the road with his thumb out so all was well. We picked him up, turned the corner and drove STRAIGHT home.
