RIIINNGG!!! The bell rang. All the students rushed into their classrooms. Then the teacher came into the classroom.
“So class!” the teacher said as he clapped, ”no more talking when the teacher is in the front please!” he spoke English.
“How teacher-ish.” I thought.
“Now, it’s time for English class! Please turn your textbook to page 1984.” He said with no hesitation. The whole class was confused. “But songsaenim, even our book only has 300 pages.” A student raised his hands.
“Oh yea, I mean page 184. My mistake students. So sorry, I will change my spectacles’ lenses next time.”
Hahaha LOL the teachers’ crazy. Anyway, yeahhh, it’s English!!! My favorite lesson!! Since the teacher asked us to open page 184, it shows a long text. I know he’s going to ask us to read.
“So now students, each of you will take turns to read one paragraph. Starting from you.” He pointed at Hyosung eonnie. Hmm, I wonder how she will do.
“Teacher.” Hyosung eonnie read the title. “What is a teacher?” she continued reading the description title. “A teacher is a phoaerson who provides education for poopils (children) and students (adults). The role of teacher is oven formal and ongoing, carrit out at a skul or other place of formal education. In many countries, a person who wishes to become a teacher must first obtain specified professional kualifikations or credentials from a university or college.” She read 1 paragraph clearly. But some were pronounced wrongly too like ‘person’ into ‘phoaerson’, ‘pupils’ into ‘poopils’, ‘carried’ into ‘carrit’, ‘often’ into ‘oven’ while ‘school’ to ‘skul’ and ‘qualifications’ into ‘kualifikations’. LOL that’s quite hilarious but I still need to respect eonnie. Since it was picked on random, Zelo was the next one.
“Professional Teachers.” He read the description.
“Teaching may be carried out informally, within the family, which is called home schooling (seeHomeschooling), or in the wider community. Formal teaching may be carried out by paidprofessionals. Such professionals enjoy a status in some societies on a par with physicians, lawyers,engineers, and accountants (Chartered or CPA).A teacher's professional duties may extend beyond formal teaching. Outside of the classroom teachers may accompany students on field trips, supervise study halls, help with the organization of school functions, and serve as supervisors forextracurricular activities. In some education systems, teachers may have responsibility for studentdiscipline.” He read nicely. But his intonation and accent’s quite weird XD but no mistakes or mispronounced words though.
“Good one Zelo and Hyosung, now Chris, please read the next paragraph for us.” the teacher commanded. Okay. This will be easy. I read the description text, “Attitudes of Teacher.” Hmm, this might be interesting.
“Teacher has different attitude. Some are strict and some are fun. The strict one gives a lot of homework and detention. He/she will be so fierce to students whenever they do a little mistake. Most of the teacher punishes students during class and they don’t really care if the students aren’t able to do their task. All they would do is scold them. But, it has positive effect. With that, student would be more discipline than before. While the fun type teacher, gives little homework and mostly will be assigned in groups or pairs. And for this one, they often give students educational games. They are mostly patient. Beside the strict and fun, of course there’s normal teacher, which means neutral. But he/she will always act teacher-ish for example, the sentence that they use a lot are:
-Now class, we will begin the lesson
-So class, I will be giving you question papers/task/project/etc
-Be quiet class, it’s not respectful to talk when the teacher is explaining
-Students, please go back to your seats
-Class, please submit the homework now
-Good morning class, we will now start the lesson”
I read it fluently and also tried not to laugh because it’s too teacher-ish and it’s describing my teacher LOL. As soon as I finish, the class clapped for me and I was like, -what the heck?-
“Good job Chris, you read it well along with your American accent.” The teacher even clapped for me. “Thanks all.” I thanked them and the rest of the students continued the other paragraphs. After English period, we had Chemistry class. It was fun and easy. The teacher only reviewed about neutrons and electrons.

No One’s POV
-Lunch time-
Chris got out of the class with her best friends. They chatted a lot while walking to the canteen. They kept talking about B.A.P but Chris didn’t seem to care. Finally they sat and started eating the food packet they bought. “Hey Chris, I heard that you fed Daehyun during break time, did you?” Sunhwa’s question froze Chris. But she answered back without stuttering, “Yeah, why? And how did you know?”
“OMG so it’s true.” Sunhwa gasped and grabbed Hyosung’s hand while shaking it, “You’re so damn lucky Chris, many fangirls went wild when they saw you! But thank goodness that you’re tall and boyish so they don’t dare to bully you or else, you would already die from the first place!”
“Oh really? It’s kinda normal for me to feed him though, nothing special I guess.” Chris simply replied.
“Okay. That’s weird. Almost 1 school loves B.A.P and you don’t even care about them at all? LOL, what are you Chris.” Hyosung said.
“So what, why should I care about them and what’s so special if I’m closed to them. Well actually I’m not even closed to them yet, maybe only Zelo since he’s my seatmate.”
The other 3 just looked Chris in understanding. “Guys, let’s just eat, I’m tired of talking about B.A.P.” Chris broke the silence and they continued to eat.
