Get me teachers' credentials!!!

I taught someone something today!

I taught an 11 year old Israeli girl how to write in cursive in English.

It was so fucking cool, cos she caught on pretty quickly.

Someone in the world knows something--BECAUSE OF ME! Yes, it may be something incredibly irrelevant and that no one uses, but she still knows it because of me!!!! Aaaaa!


This is great! It's great because, you know, I've spent basically three months now being the idiot. The person who doesn't know anything, who doesn't understand what people are saying when people ask her for help on the street, and when she does understand, doesn't understand the bus system well enough to give proper, helpful instructions. The person who is always holding up the line, or bumping into people, and being generally bewildered and confused.

BUT NOT ANYMORE! I KNOW SOMETHING THAT SOMEONE DOESN'T KNOW, AND I SHARED THAT INFORMATION. I AM THE FUCKING CHAMPION!

I feel really good. I think from now on, every single day that I'm in Israel I have to teach someone something. I don't care if it's teaching someone how to tie their shoes, or how to whistle, or how to do trig problems--I just need to teach something and then I won't feel like a total retard.
