I was haiving a good day until...

Spanish class. Yes, Spanish class screwed my day up. It started out all fine, until my teacher decided to take role call. What's ironic is that, although we've been back in school for quite some time, this is the first time he's ever taken role call.

So, he comes to my name on the list. He calls my name, and I say "here", which happens to be what I say in every other class.

He calls my name again. I though maybe he hadn't heard me the first time, so I say "here" again, more loudly this time.

He calls my name again.

I’m feeling mildly confused by now.

I say, "I said here!"

He calls my name yet again.

By this time, I'm completely lost. What more could he possibly want from me? "Um... howdy?" I ventured.

And he looses it. Completely, f***ing, absolutely goes apeshit on me.

“SO YOU THINK YOU’RE ALL THAT? GET OUT OF HERE!”

And I leave, very, very, confused. Not before I give a little flourish to the rest of the class, because, as I’m sure you can imagine, I had a very captive audience.

Saying “howdy” shouldn’t get anyone that angry. I stand around the hall for a bit, unsure what to do, as I’ve never been kicked out of class before. I stand around the halls for a bit. After a few minutes, it becomes clear to me that he’s not coming out to yell at me even more. So I go down to the bathrooms, take a piss and come back up, he isn’t looking for me. So, for the period, I went to my locker, got a book, and was just reading. Nothing happens for the rest of the day, at least not until the end.

He come looking for me, and asks me to come into his classroom. Sure, why not. This is when it got interesting, because, up to this point, I still had no idea as to why he got so angry.

The discussion went like this:

“Why the attitude in class today?”

“There was no attitude intended. Why was I kicked out?”

“Do you know why?”

“Uhhh… no.”

So, I decide to throw I throw a little joke in here.

“Was it because I didn’t say “here” in Spanish?”

Lo and behold, I’m a f***ing mindreader.

“No, it’s because you didn’t say present in Spanish.”

Had I not been completely dumbstruck by the sheer f***ing stupidity of this, I may of actually said something intelligent.

I briefly think “JESUS F***ING CHRIST!”

All I could manage was, “Is that all?”

It was.

And I could not, and still cannot, believe it. I’ve considered just not attending Spanish class.

How was this important? I wasn't. I just needed to get all of that out.I feel better now.

In Elementary school and high school, I took Spanish.
College-->In my American Sign Language class, I had to sign that I am here.
I might take either German, Latin, or Italian

And that right there is why I never took Spanish in High School. I would have been suspended the first day for literally telling the teacher to go f*ck himself and calling him an a##hole. It's happened before, but oddly enough I didn't get suspended for it. I got away with murder back in school.

Alright, Sarnath. This is what you do. When he calls your name again, announce the following to the whole class.

"Hay una fiesta en mi pantalones, y todos los gentas esta invitodos."

Trust me, they'll love you forever.

Grr, man I seriously wud have argued in a nice loud voice at that teacher. I've had something happen to me before, teachers just, for some reason, to something compleltly stupid for no reason - I was in English class, and I was told to sit on my own at the front (heh) and she hands out books, she starts at my table, by piling enough books for me to pass behind, all I did was make a little joke such as, 'Miss there's only one person on this desk' and she points to the door and shouts "Get out!" I'm like, wtf?? Geez, some teachers, i was made to stand in the corridor, walking up and down passing classes until she came and and told me to get a chair so I cud spend the entire class outside. *grumble*

eh... when you think about TEACHING HIGH SCHOOL... well... what teacher have you have had that DIDN"T take a little power trip every now and again? really? what kind of control does ANYONE have over 30 something 16 yr olds? none. and they know that. and it eats at them and they go a bit "off-kilter" and they blast you for stupid infractions of stupid rules because they can feel their "power" over you eroding daily....

next time he wigs out...

tell him:

no tienes poder. todos saben. a causa de esto, Ud usa sus reglas tontas hacer el papel del DICTADOR virtual de su sala pequena... pero cuando Ud. es rey aqui... todos saben que no tiene ropa, Rey Desnudo.


((you have no power. Everyone knows it. Because of that, you use stupid rules to act as make-believe DICTATOR in your little classroom. BUT... while you are king here, we all know you have no clothes, Naked King.))


if you can rattle that off with a good accent while wearing a Che Guevara Tshirt... you might get an A before he kicks you out....

god... i'd've paid money to see that in my spanish classes...

Don't limit such a quote to just Spanish class. Utilize it in English, Biology and other non-relevent classes as well!

Science has its roots in Latin. I know a small amount of german from my science background.

I never took any foreign language in school, mostly because the ones I wanted to learn weren't available.

I'm so glad I don't take Spanish. That's why I take the easiest language in the world: French. It's so much easier than trying to learn Japanese. Nihongo wa, wakarimasen.
