From the Mouths of 8th graders

Stuff heard in my classroom:
J: "Mrs. C. Can I get permission to hit this foo' with a ruler?"
Me: "No, Juan. You cannot hit that fool with a ruler."
J:"You're lucky she didn't give me permission."
not even 5 minutes later...
J: "Mrs. C, can I please get permission to hit this foo' upside the head with this ruler? He aint be doin nothing for our project!"
Me:"No, Juan. You cannot hit him upside the head with the ruler. Bryan, I think if you don't start working, Juan will stop asking permission."

"Why I got a D in this class? My mom be trippin!"

"What fool don't know how it spell bipolar?"

"Justin Bieber is just under a lot of stress with the paparazzi. They just need to realize he's only 19!"

"Did you hear that Justin Timberlake is a singer now?"

While looking at my New Kids on the Block poster:
"Those guys are like from the 70's or something."
"Why does he have girls jeans on?" (because of the ripped jeans)
"He is the only cute one." (Pointing at Jordan of course)
"So was this like One Direction before there was One Direction?"

Another reason why teachers are my heroes. How do you keep it together?! Kids are just something else these days and I'm not one to hold my tongue, I'd make an awful teacher. lol

Also, Jordan may be pretty hot (even now) but I'll always love Jonathan ;)

(I found you through Kaity's blog, hi!)
