First day back at school today. I spotted one of the girls who's in my ensemble as she was coming back from a piano lesson. Big smiles.
Me: How are you?
Girl: Good!
Me: How was your holiday?
Girl: Good! ... Okay... [a bit flatter] Well, boring.
Me: Oh. [hopefully] But you did lots of practice, right?
Girl: Yes! [flatter] A bit... [even flatter] Well, no.
Me: I'm going to take that last answer as the most correct, yes?
Girl [sigh]: Yes.
Yr 3 Student: "What did you say to him about trusted cabbage?"
ReplyDeleteMe: "trusted cabbage? uh.. oh.. schostakovitch!"
Student: "yeah trustedcabbage!"
Ha! I was hoping to get some other teachers' quotes :)
