Let Me See You're MOODS Swing...



Don't you just love mood swings? It seems like every teacher I have ever had has mood swings; some alot worse than others. One of my teachers, let's call him Mr. Smith, has the worst. One day he will be laughing and joking around with our class and then the next day; sitting in his desk, in a pissy mood, and not tolerating any talking.

"Why is it okay that girls have mood swings, but not adults; not teachers?" -you may be asking me...

Well, teachers are held to a higher expectation and I guess girls are not. To me, girls are just expected to have thier "off days". No, this doesn't give them an excuse to be a drama queen but most have come to expect it.

When teachers act like this...I begin to see them differnently.

"Don't judge, Leah!"

"They're having an off day, Leah!'

"They are only human, Leah!"

Yah, yah, yah...

Well future highschool students, all I have to say is; be ready for those teachers who one day seem to be the "greatest teacher in the world" and the next day throw whiteboard markers at the wall in frustration.
