5 Questions I Have For The Teachers Of My Senior Year
Sue Gober

Hello, teachers of my last year of high school. Most of you I like. Some of you, eh. As you have spent all of my senior year asking me questions, I would like to ask you, my "eh" teachers, a few questions.

1. Why do you hate me?

Please tell me why you hate me. You obviously do if you decided to give me projects and ten-page papers over the weekend of prom. Not Cool.

2. Why are you doing it wrong?

I have worked my butt off the entire year in your class. I took my AP test; I’m done; I’ve clocked out. Not only do you hate me, but you are also doing your job completely wrong. After AP testing (especially senior year), you’re not supposed to teach. Right now, I should be having parties and watching Monster University. If anything, teach me something interesting. Life, movies, and food are all acceptable topics to” teach” me about. I did not take years of AP tests for you to ruin this cycle of easy schooling after the tests.

3. Why do you have senioritis?

I get it, you can’t wait for the school year to end, but isn’t this your job? I would love to have four day weekends until the year ends too, but I think you need to calm down a bit. While you’re at home making yourself some pancakes, I’m sitting in your class wondering how I’m supposed to do all this work you assigned me if you’re not here to tell me what you want.

4. Why don't you know how to say my name?

Whether I’ve been in your class for four year or just this one, I’m pretty sure you should know how to say it. You shouldn’t have to double check with one of my other teachers to make sure you don’t mispronounce it at awards night.

5. Why are you a teacher?

I’m pretty sure you hate kids. You genuinely don’t like us, and I’m very confused at your career choice.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

day·dream (ˈdāˌdrēm/): a series of pleasant thoughts that distract one's attention from the present.

Daydreams, the savior of our life in class. Every type of student in the classroom does it at least once, but most cases it is an everyday event, especially in that boring class -- you know the one. But what are we thinking while we are daydreaming?

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.
