As sad as I was yesterday, today I started the morning at work with a belly-laugh. Let me tell you what happened.
I arrived early at school, as usual. But, unusually, there were already two pupils (15-year olds) waiting outside my office. They turned out to be waiting for one of my colleagues, who would arrive in about 15 minutes time.
One of them took out a bottle from his backpack, and as it was an unusual shape, it caught my attention. He twisted off the cap, and took a healthy (and prohibited!) slug.
Before I had the chance to scold him (no drinking in the corridors!) he spat out the liquid and held out the bottle to me, doing his utmost to keep himself from gagging.
"Miss! What is in this, can you tell me what this is?"
I took a good look at the bottle. And translated the English text for him that was printed underneath the cheerful lemon-in-the-sunshine.
" Lemon-oil salad dressing"
After the first shock he was able to laugh with me and his pal, who was practically rolling down the corridor. We all agreed his Mum could do with an English lesson.
And how is Life treating you today?
Enjoy the rest of your day!
Haha, super grappig.
