The day I met my new biology teacher!

Exchange students from England have become almost none existent so I was expecting some people to be excited about my arrival. But the greeting I received from my biology teacher was bordering on ecstatic …

I had been living in Brazil for less than a week before I met my biology teacher. It was the afternoon of my third day in school and none of the other teachers had paid me much attention so I wasn’t expecting anything special from this teacher. As my host sister introduced me as the exchange student his eyes widened, as she explained that I came from England his eyes doubled in size. He asked me where in England I came from and as I said that I came from London he looked like all his Christmases had come at once! He said hello in a loud voice as he strode across the room with his hand outstretched and a massive grin on his face. Me not used to this type of treatment from teachers was up and out of my seat and backing away from him as quickly as possible. I kept backing away until the back of the wall prevented me from going any further. He kissed both my cheeks and pulled me across the classroom to the chalkboard, all the while my class mates just stood, watched and laughed. He began to daw the London eye on the board and asked me if I knew what it was. When I told him that I did he giggled like I told him something embarrassing. He asked me sit at the desk closest to him and he began to tell a story in Portuguese while grinning happily at me. When the class ended and I was leaving he gabbed my hand and put it on his heart and said that I would have a special place their. N’aaawr, isn’t that cutee >.< it may seem lie my biology teacher is a freak but he isn’t. He is so lovely and the truth is he gave me one of the best welcomes to Brazil :)
