One of the perks of being a teacher: Kids say the darndest things talaga! I'll give two scenarios lang that happened today... Lunch with Samantha... J9: Does you brother or sister have a girlfriend or boyfriend? Sam: No they don't. J9: Really? How come? Sam: My dad won't allow my sister. J9: But why? She's 22! I'm even younger than her. Sam: I don't know why. I told him nga na "It's her choice, it's not your choice." (sabay roll eyes) Hahahahaha! O diba ang taray sa tatay. Then she also talked about her life in Camiguin. Apparently her family's pretty prominent there so... Sam: I have a bodyguard there, but I don't like. I always send him away! (sabay roll eyes with matching flip of the hand) J9: Really? How about here in CDO, do you have a bodyguard? Sam: No way! I don't want to bring him here to CDO! (roll eyes ulit) I don't know why they give me a bodyguard. Hahahahaha this kid's super laughtrip. Then there's AJ. I went to the bathroom and when I came back, he was outside by the door just standing. He seemed to be furious or something. J9: What are you doing there? AJ: Miss Jaja told us to explore over there but I don't want to explore because it's so hot!!!! J9: Oh but you have to explore because Miss Jaja told you so. It's part of your presentation. Besides, look at your other classmates, they're out exploring. You're the only one not exploring. AJ: But I don't wanna go there because it's so hot!!!! We're so very near the equator and do you even know how hot the equator is?! HUH!???!!!! (sabay tulo laway sa gilid ng labi) He was getting so hysterical already that I didn't know what to say to him anymore. I still made him go out and explore, though. And afterwards he just grabbed a leaf and went back inside the classroom and tossed the leaf to Miss Jaja. Miss Jaja was offended by the act so she scolded AJ. AJ: Well I didn't want to go outside because we're already in the equator and how hot is the equator?!?! (sabay heavy breathing) Tawa na lang ako ng tawa! Hahahahaha! Hay mga bata nga naman. I'm gonna miss that when I leave the kids next week. Awww it's making me sad na tuloy!
