last week i was standing in front of my students in line and saw them whispering and staring at me. when they saw me stare back i heard one of them say, "tell her!"

student: Miss H., you look like a pirate today.
me: (looking down at my gray capris, boots, and white long-sleeved shirt) a pirate?! yuck!
student: um, don't worry...more like a kiera knightly pirate, not a johnny depp pirate.
me: oh, ok...i guess that's good.
student: trust us, it is.


kids these days...
