THE VIRGIN

It's been a while and boy do I have some stories! Where to begin, where to begin...

Well, first off, on Friday I subbed at Dos Pueblos for a class that I didn't even know existed! It was a classroom for Emotionally Disturbed students. While I was there I played flamenco guitar with a student, a girl tried to sell weed to purchase a kitten, a boy and a girl almost got into a fight, and a boy arrived for school at around 1:30PM.

On Monday I subbed for an English class. The teacher requests me :) During one period where kids were supposed to be reading but were mainly chatting and not reading, I was sitting on a desk practicing my Rubik's cube. I overheard a conversation between three people. It went something like this:

White girl to Mexican guy: "Do you think she looks Asian?" (referring to a Mexican girl)
Mexican guy: "I don't know..."
ME: "Yeah! She does.. A little."

I had decided to jump in on the conversation, I don't know why. Mainly because I thought she looked kinda Asian; and perhaps I wanted to show that it wasn't a bad thing. Or something. Regardless, she turned really red and they all started laughing. She kept saying, "Don't look at me! Don't look at me!" And I said, "What?! Looking Asian is not a bad thing!"

And the white girl exclaimed, "That's not what I asked him!"

It was then that I realized that "Do you think she's a virgin?" sounds an awful lot like "Do you think she looks Asian?" if you are not listening closely.

So I basically told a girl in class that she looks like a virgin. A little.





P.S. She is a virgin, apparently.
