**Kindergarten** - I cried because Miss Bunny asked me to draw a fire engine and that task was beyond my capabilities.

**1st Grade** - Miss Jenny looked like an old crone but was very sweet. James G. threw-up a baloney sandwich during recitation of the Hebrew alphabet.

**2nd Grade** - I thought Mrs. Hall’s hair was really a red wig. A boy kissed me during recess.

**3rd Grade** - Miss Erna made us do interpretative dancing while she read Greek mythology outloud.

**4th Grade** - Mrs. Miller yelled at me to, “Get down from the roof this minute!” I immediately jumped off and landed right in front of her. She freaked, but there were no broken bones.

**5th Grade** - I fainted during assembly and Miss Nancy had no clue until after she had herded the class back to our room and I wasn’t there.

**6th Grade** - I had my first out of body experience in Mr. Carlson’s math class. The stress of the numbers made me float above the room.

I am surprised I remembered all of that, especially the names.
