I spend Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday staring at the front of a classroom in awe, more preoccupied with the human that stands before me then with the subject I should be learning. There she stands in the front of a group of bewildered students, flailing her arms and spitting out words in such an alarmingly fast rate that not a single soul can understand her blabbering.
