This past Thursday was my second Indian dance class. (We do 1/2 hour of Classical Indian dance and a whole hour of Bollywood-style dance.) There were 3 new additions to the class: three boys that I teach! Ummmm.....awkward! You should have seen the looks of panic on their faces as I walked up. They said, "*gasp* It's Ms. Lyn!", then they huddled together to discuss the situation.
Luckily, these are very good boys who do as they are told. I couldn't have handled it otherwise. I told them, "Hey guys. I won't say anything at school if you don't. It'll be our secret!" Relief flooded over all their faces. I can see why. Do you know how brutal middle school is? If the other boys found out that they were taking a dance class with FEMALES in the class, including their teacher, they would totally get beaten up. We're going to treat it like fight club. The first rule of Bollywood Dance Club is: you do not talk about Bollywood Dance Club. The second rule of Bollywood Dance Club is: you DO NOT talk about Bollywood dance club!
On the plus side, the parents of the 3 boys are now going to join the class as well. Hooray! This will make it much less awkward (for me anyway) and more fun. :-)

I taught for 25 years. That's a lot of kids. I still run into them when out in public. Have to be on your best behavior!
ReplyDeleteHello, my name is RITA CARMEN and I have been trying to get pregnant for over 12 years. i have been looking for ways online for so long, I first did Depo Provera Shot which i consecutively took every three months in order to get pregnant or fertile, but there was no way from it. I did Depo shot for 3 years constantly until my Doctors in Australia told me to try IVF because I had Endometriosis stage 4 and I resulted to try IVF (In Vitro Fertilization). For months after my IVF no progressed and my situation became worse that my husband had already had plans or getting married to another woman because I was barren. I read a testimony about Prophet Abulele how he had helped so many women with pregnancy problems and also how he usually casts return spells to bring back partner and make one fertile. Of all options tried, I gave Prophet Abulele a try. I am now a mother of a baby boy. For over 13 years of my marriage I received my help from this spell caster. I want to impact on someone's life and make the person get help from a good spell caster. Prophet Abulele's email is:- prophetabulelehealingtemple@gmail.com and his WhatsApp is +2349022406159 once you contact him, he will help you fast.
