high school teachers: if you don’t show up with a dress and full makeup or a fitted tuxedo to class everyday to college your professors will execute you
college professors:
I once had a professor SLAM a thermos down on his desk and say to us “there’s more pressure in my sinuses right now than there is at the bottom of the sea. This thing’s full of NyQuil. I’m going to drink it while I teach, and when your heads are replaced by swirling rainbows, I will cancel the rest of class.”
I’m not impressed by what kind of car you drive, or what job you got, or the house you live in or your social status. I’m impressed by the mindset you have, the heart you hold and the way you value yourself & others around you.
