A female teacher asked her 15-year-old student,<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy are you late again?\u201d<\/p>\n
The boy replied,<\/p>\n
\u201cMa\u2019am, I dreamed I was playing football and scored the winning goal!\u201d<\/p>\n
The teacher sighed.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s not an excuse for being late.\u201d<\/p>\n
The boy grinned and said,<\/p>\n
\u201cI know, ma\u2019am\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
She raised an eyebrow.<\/p>\n
\u201cThen why were you late?\u201d<\/p>\n
He smiled innocently.<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause the match went into extra time.\u201d<\/p>\n
The teacher tried not to laugh.<\/p>\n
\u201cNice try. Sit down.\u201d<\/p>\n
He walked toward his desk.<\/p>\n
Then the teacher called after him,<\/p>\n
\u201cWait!\u201d<\/p>\n
He turned around.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou’re late almost every day. What happened yesterday?\u201d<\/p>\n
He smiled.<\/p>\n
\u201cI dreamed I was playing football again.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd the day before?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSame thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
The teacher folded her arms.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd last Monday?\u201d<\/p>\n
The boy nodded.<\/p>\n
\u201cSame dream.\u201d<\/p>\n
She sighed.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy do you keep having football dreams?\u201d<\/p>\n
He shrugged.<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause my alarm clock keeps waking me up before the game ends.\u201d<\/p>\n
The entire class burst out laughing.<\/p>\n
The teacher shook her head.<\/p>\n
\u201cFine. But tomorrow, I expect you here on time.\u201d<\/p>\n
The boy nodded seriously.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, ma\u2019am.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd no more excuses.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, ma\u2019am.\u201d<\/p>\n
He walked back to his seat.<\/p>\n
Then he turned around and asked,<\/p>\n
\u201cCan I ask one question?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cCould you please not schedule the test during my football match?\u201d<\/p>\n
The teacher laughed.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou’re lucky you’re funny.\u201d<\/p>\n
The boy smiled.<\/p>\n
\u201cI’m hoping that’s worth at least five points.\u201d<\/p>\n
She pointed toward his desk.<\/p>\n
\u201cSit down.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, Coach.\u201d<\/p>\n
The class erupted again.<\/p>\n
And the teacher realized something every teacher eventually learns:<\/p>\n
Sometimes the student who gives you the biggest headache is also the one who gives the whole class the biggest laugh. \ud83d\ude02\u26bd<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A female teacher asked her 15-year-old student, \u201cWhy are you late again?\u201d The boy replied, \u201cMa\u2019am, I dreamed I was playing football and scored the winning goal!\u201d The teacher sighed. … <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-184982","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"brizy_media":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/readfullstory168.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/184982","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/readfullstory168.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/readfullstory168.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/readfullstory168.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/readfullstory168.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=184982"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/readfullstory168.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/184982\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":184983,"href":"https:\/\/readfullstory168.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/184982\/revisions\/184983"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/readfullstory168.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=184982"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/readfullstory168.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=184982"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/readfullstory168.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=184982"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
