"how we wear that sweater"

aight, so i know i've been blowing up this spot with school stories, but summer school is almost over so shut up, okay? this is the most amazing piece of writing i've read in a while. also, one of my sweet students told me today that i was a cool english teacher and she told her mom about me. love it!

okay, so the assignment was: "what would you like the older generation to understand about you?" six sentences, Standard English.

"What should our older generation need to understand. The older generation do all the old habits. Younger generation can teach them a better way to do it. We can teach them how to use sertin technology. Can teach them our learning abilities. Can show them different music culture. The also can be taught how we wear that sweater."

teach me, travis, teach me how to wear that sweater!

...amazing...

I wish I had saved some old work (actually, I think I have a folder of ungraded essays still in a totebag in my closet)....but nothing comes close to that.

And I think in order to properly wear a Cosby sweater, one does need understanding.

It's better to laugh than to hang your head and sigh.
