Tough Skin

One of the attributes every teacher must possess is tough skin.

Exhibit A-
Imagine my excitement when the little boy who rarely raises his hand to participate in class, shoots his arm in the air today, with a big smile on his face. I think to myself "Ahhh, finally a breakthrough."

Now, imagine my embarrassment when all he wanted to do was inquire about the giant pimple that decided to nest upon my face.


Thanks for participating. :)

I wonder what tomorrow will bring.
