the day i got asked to prom...by a student

remember in my last post how I mentioned being asked to prom by a student?

well, that student came back today and took it to the next level.

a poster, cookies, candy, and a little teddy bear. HA!

it was so awkward, and yet so funny at the same time.
and yes, I had a whole roomful of students watching--half of them recording it.

oh hey, don't you worry, you won't be seeing me on the news any time soon.

i decided to save myself some jail time and reject the promposal. haha

but I think this goes pretty high on the list of "unexpected moments of being a teacher"

if there was such a list...

and today.

guys, today, there was an assembly.

and apparently the staff was supposed to come up with a dance.

but they didn't.

and before I know it, they are throwing me and another young teacher in the middle of the gym TO DANCE.

with NO music.

i guess the other teachers just looked at me and figured, "oh, you're young--you'll know what to do! go dance!" 

but if you remember this post or this post---i have NO rhythm.

none!

especially with no music!

so I resorted to the only thing I knew how to do.

the macarena.

but then.

half way through, I forgot how to finish.

so I just shook my hips and then just stood there.

and you wonder how I got asked to prom....ha!

even with a failed macarena dance in front of 1,000 people, I am still going home happy--

because today is the last day before spring break!

happppppyyy friday!
