The End of a Term; The Beginning of a New Semester

I have accomplished three great tasks in the past two days:

1) Successfully given a guilt-trip talk to my A2 class. An innocent standby said I put the fear of God into the students.

2) In more or less words said to a student, "I don't put up with anyone else's crap, so why would I start putting up with yours?"

3) Mastered "the Look." I gave it to a student today, he withered, and promptly went to work.

I find that I have a great talent in delivering guilt. I really don't know what it is. I could never teach it to someone.

Now that may seem like I am in a bad mood. I'm not, really. In fact, I'm quite chipper. =)

Remember that look, it will serve you well.

Wow. Too bad you can't teach it to me...I don't know that I have ever given the look, hence mastered it. Sad day!
