Alright, so one of my batches for the training programs have ended (I teach American culture) and another one is ending tomorrow. The shitty thing? A couple of them may have cheated, and definitely a number of them thought that because I'm very close to being nutty and insane, they can slide through.

Not so.

Listen, I'm as easy going as the next guy (or actually, much more), but when I get to grades and work in my class, I'm dead serious. There were about 10 people today who need to redo their presentations tomorrow, and it seems interesting that some of the same people got extremely high grades on their tests. So what does it sound like to me? That there was some cheating going on. There was one guy who insisted that he didn't cheat, and I COMPLETELY believe him. It totally blows that he's in the same boat as those who did cheat just bc his presentation wasn't done right. Ah well.

I suppose they're the travails of being a teacher. Now that I've finished my lemon iced tea at Coffee Day and a cornbread bbq chicken sandwich, it looks like I can relax. Done with work, gonna go home, and write a retest for the "kids". In case anyone at all is reading this and hasn't seen it yet, WATCH AMERICAN HISTORY X. Mind-blowing. Out.
