"Western doesn't have college parties, idiot."  Another student chimed in.
"I agree with him, Western doesn't have parties," I smiled dismissively.
"So does that mean you don't go to parties?"
"Nah, I don't do parties."
"See, I told you she was boring," a girl whispered to her neighbor.
You heard it hear first, folks:  I am boring.  You know, I would rather students think I am as boring as a bump on a log than a raging party animal.  Who can respect a woman like that -- especially since they already don't respect me since I don't "look like a teacher".  I guess there goes my reputation as a "fun" teacher -- not that I ever was a fun teacher.  Alas, I will ever be known as a boring twenty-something who never took advantage of her college years.  My loss.
