1/30 SIT DOWN ... I'm really going to miss ... STOP IT NOW

Class I was totally out of control today.  Granted I have to take some responsibility as I can get silly and sing songy with them.  But as I was trying to tell them that I was leaving, some of the kids started playing soccer under the desks.  This is how it went ... "I leave in two days and I'm really going to miss .... SIT DOWN ... you.  I think you all ... STOP IT are very smart ... DO YOU WANT ME TO CALL GURUJI ... ".  I gave up after a few minutes.  The bell rang and one student in particular took my hand as he was leaving class and looked directly into my eyes, he didn't say anything but I knew he understood.  That's all it takes.  Regardless, I had to tell Guruji, or Siddarth.  My last day with them will be a day of discipline;(.  But this is just as important as any mural or song.  More organizing in the wonderfully warm afternoon helped to relieve any lingering goodbye blues.
