Jana- Day 2

Today was much better, I am 800 calories under! I have a 1100 calorie deficit, so that makes me feel a little bit better. I still need to eat something for dinner, but honestly just don't feel like making anything and may just skip it.
So, one of my students (the one who likes to wears pigtails and who we think there may be an issue with because she is a bit clueless) asked me today if she could ask me a question and I not get mad. This is in front of my entire class, by the way. She then says, "What did you waited?". She was trying to say, "What do you weight?". I of course responded with "That is SO RUDE, you DON'T ask people that!" She said, "Why?" and then I said, "R. what do you weigh?" and she said "I don't want to say in front of everyone." UGH! The best part is the rest of the class (because they never listen) are all sitting there during this exchange totally clueless, then someone says "What did she ask you?". Whatever, it was a rude question and I'll talk about a lot of things with my students, but how much I weigh is not one of them!
How are you all doing?

  1. Oh my gosh, I can't believe that happened. That sucks! Well, clueless, yes, that was just proved.

    If it will make you feel better, one time a first grader said to me, "Ms. Meehan, it looks like you have hair above your lip." (A MUSTACHE?!!) Why can a 6 year old make me feel dumb? Kids need to be taught these lessons, I think, and you handled it very well!

    I'm about to blog.

  2. A first grader once told me I was fat, which made me feel bad, but this didn't even phase me.
