The other day one of my students came up to me and said, "Christi and I were talking about you during 2nd. She said that she hopes she looks like you when she's your age..." I said, "I'm just 23! Contrary to what you all think, that's not quite old yet!" Talk about a back-handed compliment! haha
I also love talking to my 7th graders about stuff. They make me feel so old. They don't know who Tina Turner is....They barely remember when 9-11 happened (vague memory sort of thing)....They definitely don't remember when the internet wasn't in every home and they don't remember a time when everyone and their grandma had a cell phone.
Something happens every day that cracks me up.
