first time
I am three years old again, anxious and happy and scared to death. Tomorrow is my first day at school… though not to be taught, but rather, to teach…
Though I have no idea what I’m getting into, unsure about how it’s supposed to be done, incurably bad at math without a clue on how grades are come up with… I am ready.
I am ready to be mimicked and ridiculed for my ill posture, my poor sense of fashion, my plebeian mannersims. I am ready to make grammatical errors, pronounce words wrongly, get mental blocks in the middle of lectures, forget the the correct names and terms for things pertaining to the subject matter. I am ready to be stumped when asked intelligent and stupid questions, to admit ignorance when caught faking my way through a topic. I am ready to be ignored, to have students sleep while I am speaking, to get blank stares when I deliver my wittiest joke. I am ready to watch the worst films ever made because they were made under my tutelage.
Now the question is, are they ready for me? Bwahahahahhaha…. er ok… not funny
