I teach a bunch of screwballs...

...seriously.

So,  walk into class today and see half a tree sitting forlornly on one of the desks.  I barely get out "What's with the poor tree" when my  brain realises that the greenage is actually mistletoe.

O.o <-------- My reaction.

THEN two of the boys hold it up and call out "SHEEEEENAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!" and hold out their arms. 

I bolt back into the office laughing my head off. Lucja was giving me the wierdest look and couldn't quite believe that the boys had bought in mistletoe.

So, I finally get my giggles back under control and go back to the classroom.... well, I swear, it's the first time I've actually tried to sneak into my own classroom. I stayed on the opposite side of the room as much as possible for the lesson.

Now, I don't know what Maciej was thinking while I was writing something on the board, but I saw him grab a branch while trying to look innocent. I raise an eyebrow and go back to writing. The next time I turn around he's dissapeared, but there appears to be a mistletoe shrub growing out of the floor under the desks so I figure he's hiding under there. I shake my head and go back to writing.

Then he pounced.

Thankfully, I heard him coming and I managed to get my right foot up to face level fast enough that he backed off (these kids are TWELVE by the way).

That was the end of it until after class finished. They chased me around the classroom then LOL!

I'm imagining it now. Poor Sheena, being chased by lovesick 12 year olds! I loved your description of it, it had me laughing!

Be sure to post more of their antics, it sounds like you have an interesting class!

This is also the class I had my first ever snowball fight with.

They're a great bunch of kids... I'm just not sure why they were chasing me with mistletoe.

*ROFL* Kids...... :D :D
very well described, I just could imagine the whole situation....

It was pretty funny at the time too^________^

Lol, I'm picturing the 'shrub' growing out of the floor...and the neat manuever by you to dissuade the kissing bandit! LOL!

Am I wrong in thinking maybe there's a few of those boys who have crushes on you? ^__~

I'm laughing at it now (and was at the time, too, but then it was more of an "Oh, my GOD! You boys are weird). I still giggle when I imagine Maciej's face when my foot went up *giggles*

I didn't think any of them had crushes on me...now... I'm not so sure...

Oh, and when they chased me around the classroom I had to do the foot in the face of one kid and the other I fended off by putting my hand in his face... It must've looked so weird.

Seriously, though. They're screwballs! Real life is MUCH stranger than fictions sometimes.

*nods* I'm thinking it's a distinct possibility! ^___^

LOL! That sounds like a scene straight out of an anime!!
And I'm thinking that you're getting a lot of great material for a future novel...*grins and pokes you*
