i walk in and the first thing i notice about the ta is that he has giant, horrible 80's hair. the second thing i notice is that he looks like he's about 12, playing dress up in his dad's business clothes.
i figured i was just being mean and feeling bitter that ta's are now younger than me.
then he starts writing on the chalkboard. yes, chalkboard, because physics is retro. (that's the only explanation i could come up with...)
this is what he wrote:
pleas rite down my contact info. [ARE YOU KIDDING ME???]
blah blah blah i'm 12 years old and can't spell and i'm not actually a real ta, so don't take anything i say seriously because i have no idea what i'm talking about and also i can't spell.
did i mention that it is very possible that i am a grad student and Cannot Spell? i am soon going to be in charge of the generation that is supposed to be saving the world and I CANNOT EVEN SPELL 'PLEASE' OR 'WRITE'.
ps my office is ps 119 or something, i can't actually remember because i'm worried about not being able to spell. come to my office hours k?
i had to sit on my hands so i wouldn't grab my phone and start taking pictures of the board. i didn't think that would make a very good impression, and even if he really did write "pleas rite down my contact info", he is the one in charge of my grades...
ps. did you know that physics is ALL math?? i took it my junior year of high school, which was approximately 5 years ago? and i remember NOTHING. this is gonna be Hard! because, contrary to my smart sassy sissy's beliefs, math is not even close to being like riding a bike - how you always rememeber. i barely even remember how to do fractions, and we just had a POP QUIZ on VECTORS?! what the heck's a vector?!
