Speaking Class 3:05 pm

I managed to catch a dragonfly during break. This one was rather docile.
I placed the little guy on my shoulder and went back to start my next class. Oggles and Ahhs from the students. We start class and not more than five minutes later two students have to drink some water. I let them go. I gently placed the dragonfly into one of the student's pencil case. They come back and they start on their test. There are three students in this class and the girl who didn't go get water is giggling like there's no tomorrow. Ten minutes pass. The boy opens his case and VOILA! The dragonfly makes a beeline to the opposite side of the room. The boy starts screaming hysterically and the girl sitting next to him (after class starts I need water girl) jumps up and joins in the screaming; not because of the dragonfly but the sudden outburst from the boy. Meanwhile the other girl and I are bursting with uncontrollable laughter!
By this time the whole hakwon including the owner and director run down to see what all the commotion is about.
I haven't laughed so hard since I can't remember!

Epilogue: I bought the whole class instant ramen and all was forgotten...

Ahhhh....glory days! Thank you, nice laugh. I've been wanting to do that to my wife, though with a gecko and her make-up bag, but that would require me to wake up 90 minutes earlier.....
