I had missed the first day of the school year because of a travel with my family, so the first day of the term I attended to school, a few new teachers who joined the staff, had already been introduced to the students.
The fact was that when Miss Young, the new Geography teacher came into the classroom, as it is supposed to happen, all the boys standed up and got quiet. In my case, I only saw a cute girl entering, not too older than me, with a juvenile looking, so I stayed in my seat and in a cheerful way, said loudly: âHey blondie! I am Peter Johnson, are you newbie in this school, whatâs your name?â
Obviously, I thought it was a new classmate but at the sight of the reaction of the rest of the class, I soon figured out, that I messed up.
She got to her desk, stared at me and said: âPeter Johnson, eh? I will remind that name. Now please, go to the Headmistressâ office and tell her that Miss Young, has sent you there for a full dozen. I am sure that by the time you come back, you will be more willingly to stand up when a teacher enters in the classroom. In fact, I bet you will try to keep standing up, as much as possible.â
