What the hell...?

Time for a little end of week laugh. For the second time this year I have accidently cussed in class. Though the only thing I said each time was hell, and the students hear far worse than that in the school hallways I still can't believe I did it either time. The first time it happened was earlier in the year...

I was taking up papers when a student said something crazy that I didn't quite understand, and without thinking I blurted out while looking right at the student, "What the hell is that!?" Needless to say the students eyes nearly jumped out of his head, and the students began laughing uncontrollably. I tried to play it off, but I was busted.

The second time happened just today shortly after 1st period had begun. I have to preface the rest of this story by letting you know that I use a 'strike' system in my class, so you get three 3 strikes and you're out. Now, right after our weekly vocabulary quiz I said the following, again completely by accident, "You guys need to get your AR books out, so we can go to the library. Everyone needs to walk quietly down the hallway to the library, so I don't have to strike you the hell out!" Awww...good times. My problem is that everytime my classes are extremely well behaved I often find myself slipping out of teacher mode, and getting too comfortable. Anyway, I hoped you enjoyed the hell out of this blog! :)
