Fun interaction of the day:

I asked a student why they missed several classes. First, in Chinese, he said “I was sick”. I said “no, no, use English”. He thought for a while and finally answered “I am bad”. I said thank you and let him go on his way.

10 minutes later he barged into my office, and in Chinese, triumphantly proclaimed that he had actually come to every class and  that his friends would vouch for him.

When I pulled out my notes and grilled him on the subject matter and location of every class we ever had, his face dropped, he stopped arguing, said good bye and walked away.

Teacher Lee: 1
Students: they take L’s so often I stopped counting
