they say the funniest things. i want to write down those moments so i can look back on them in the future and remember this time.
one of the more recent favourite quotes:
Me: "Another type of electromagnetic radiation is ultra-violet radiation."
Student: "Mrs. Hamm, don't you mean ultra-VIOLENT radiation?"
Me: "No, I mean ultra-violet, like ultra-'purple'"
Student: "Ultra-Purple?? Wha...?!? I'm sure it's ultra-VIOLENT, Mrs. Hamm"
Me: "I'm very sorry, but it's ultra-violet."
[i had to work really hard not to laugh out loud and damage her psyche for life]
