I came to the realization a couple days ago that the students from my homeroom during my first year of teaching turned 22 this year. Any who went to university right after high school have convocated.
I ran into a student from my first homeroom earlier this week. She has her degree in business administration and is working for a securities firm downtown. Former students are grown ups, I am so old. Despite making me feel old, it was nice to see her. She is genuinely one of the nicest people I have ever met in my entire life. Teaching would be so easy if I had more students like her.
You want old? I went to a doctor's appointment with my new medical doctor today. Guess how old she was? My age.
