Hey y'all!
How's it going? I'm doing great!
So, I was debating on whether or not to write this post and put it out into the world. It's not that I'm worried someone from my school will read this and tell my teacher what I wrote about her. In fact, my teacher literally told us on the first or second class we had with her that she doesn't care what we think or say of her. But still... I'm not writing anything rude at all. But truthfully, I like my teacher even though she is very messed up in that little brain of hers. I just want to share with you my class's experience with this uh... unique teacher.
I'm not saying her name, but we'll call her Prof Lunatic, alright? Okay. I guess I should tell you what my first impression was of her... Oh okay so last year, everyone in my grade loved Prof Lunatic and we all wanted her as our teacher. We thought that she was so funny and witty, and that we would only have fun in her class. So on the first day of school when we asked our homeroom teacher who we would have as our Math and Science teacher, our homeroom teacher said Prof Lunatic. Automatically we were relieved that we had the supposed "coolest teacher" in the world.
Alright, so we have Prof Lunatic's Math and Science classes during the last two periods of the day. You guys all know how tiring it can be at the end of the day, right? Especially on the first day of school because all of your classes only consist of your teacher talking about what you'll learn all year? So we're all kind of tired. Prof Lunatic totally understands what we're dealing with, which is surprising! She's all like, "I know you guys are tired and hungry, and you just can't wait to get home and sleep. All you've done today is listen to your teachers talk on and on about stuff. But just bear with me, this is your last class before you can go home and sleep.". She's very understanding and so we're all like, "Oh yeah, best teacher EVEEEER.".
So Prof Lunatic talks on and on about how the night of our first day of school is going to roll out, when we shove forms in our parents' faces to make them sign sheets and the house will turn into a "gong show". And the class is like, "No way, she totally gets us!". And she does, because she has kids too who do that! Anyways, so she keeps talking about random and funny stuff, and seriously, the whole class is literally like, "HOLY COW WE LOVE YOU. THIS IS GOING TO BE THE MOST AMAZING YEAR EVER.".
And seriously, the whole two periods we had with her, Prof Lunatic barely talked about math and science. She just keeps making weird motions with her arms and talking about stuff other what we actually needed to hear!
So fast forward now to the next day. We still have Prof Lunatic the last two periods at the end of the day. Everyone's like, "Oh yes! We have math and science!" which is very surprising. So we go into the classroom laughing, talking to each other, taking our leisurely time and then PAF. Prof Lunatic is rushing us to be quiet, taking out our math and science journals and being prepared. I mean, she was suddenly so strict. So the whole class calms down, right? We're all confused. Prof Lunatic is at her desk organizing something. Once we're all settled, Prof Lunatic tells us about how slow we are and how we're in Grade 8 and we're supposed to be ready in ten seconds time and blah blah. Now I think you can imagine the whole class' reaction. What happened to her? What did we do wrong? The whole two periods we did was work. And then Prof Lunatic assigns us homework. I don't mind homework, but it's the next day that surprises me.
The next day during Math and Science, Prof Lunatic asks if any of us didn't finish our homework. If I remember correctly, it was about six people in my class who either forgot to do it or just didn't do it. Prof Lunatic then goes all like, "Alright, you have DT (detention) with me after school until four o'clock.". And then she tells us that she "strategically" signed up to be the DT supervisor every Wednesday for us! Like, WHAT? After, we had to do work and Prof Lunatic leaves the classroom. She comes back a few minutes later saying that she told the principal about how our homeroom doesn't complete their work and finish homework. And now we are completely terrified of her. A girl in my class whispered to me "So this is what it's like after day one, okay...".
We then review our homework sheet and it's extremely quiet in the classroom. But once we're finished, Prof Lunatic asks those who didn't complete their homework if they want a jail free card! You know, from Monopoly? She asks them if they want a jail free card so they don't have to stay after school! We're all like, "UH, what???". She starts joking around with us and we're here like, "WHAT THE HECK JUST HAPPENED?". Prof Lunatic asks us, "Now, do you guys understand how I roll?". We just nod because she's already in her "happy switch" and we don't want to trigger her "lunatic switch" if we say something.
So basically, we were, I guess, kind of wrong about Prof Lunatic being the best teacher in the world. She's a good teacher, but man oh man... my homeroom is always saying "This lady's crazy.".
In all, there are some classes when Prof Lunatic just goes berserk and we're so afraid of her. But then there are classes where we barely get work done and all we do is talk about food... It's always unpredictable in Prof Lunatic's classroom, honestly...
She's a very good teacher, and she cares about our health. She tells us to sleep in during the weekends and she will allow us to take naps in her class! But I guess we're all too scared of her to try to sleep while she's teaching so we don't know if she's lying about that. She's basically like our teacher/mom/friend. She's fun most of the time, and her messed up jokes makes us remember what we learn during class but she knows when to get serious which makes her an excellent teacher.
Anywho, that is what happens in Prof Lunatic's classes. I hope you kind of had a good laugh reading about my "crazy teacher"! Can you relate to this post? Thanks for reading! Take care everybody!
Keep Smiling,
