On MWF we have classes next door to one another. I get the pleasure of teaching Gabinna while Michelle has a horror class where the only person worth teaching in her class is Lydia. The rest disrespect foreigners left and right.
I find that despite the hardships and the issues some kids bring to the table... when you get kids like Gabinna and Lydia... its all worth it.
In class today, Gabinna wanted me to sit in the trash can which is about as big around as my head. Not a big trash can. I told her no, but she could sit on it. So she did... for the entire 50 minute period. She would get up to get a drink and carry the trash can with her, attached to her butt.
Then she moved over to sit next to me, bringing her trash can. She was sitting there writing and then she turns to me and says "MY BUTT IS STUCK IN THE TRASH CAN". I couldn't stop laughing. It made it all the more funny because she had the hiccups. Every time she finished a sentence she would hiccup... as if for emphasis.
When I asked her (as part of the lesson), where she would like to go on vacation she started to sing "under the sea" (as seen on the Little Mermaid).
Gabinna is the most hilarious kid I've ever met. She wants to be a singer someday, but her ability to be overly dramatic constantly would make her a great actor. She will definitely go on to be an amazing adult.
