You may be getting tired of my walk down memory lane, but I'm just getting wound up! Seriously, it's like I've rediscovered a part of my life that has long been forgotten ~ or at least shelved in one of my brain closets. Today I've been thinking about the people I admired.
It was really shocking to go through the teachers' photos and realize they weren't as old and ancient as we thought they were. No, most of them were probably in their 30's and 40's with a handful in their 20's. Photos don't lie. Miss Zembek, our P.E. teacher was as young and hot as we thought she was. So was math teacher, Mr. Simonson. Mr. Wells still looks like Hemmingway, which was perfect since he taught English. And Mr. Burns, my AP Biology teacher still has the look of a guy who really cared about his students.
As I look through their photos, it strikes me how much an adult can impact a young person's life without even realizing it. Yikes, I feel eyes falling on me. Does my life speak well?
