#they’re so obsessed with one another I love it

So I’ve been teaching 6th grade since January, and one thing about my female students which made me upset to realize is how many of them are obsessed with skincare. I've heard the girls in my class discussing the EYE CREAM they use. Like tf you mean eye cream? You're ELEVEN!!! I'm a decade older than you and have never even touched eye cream!! The most skincare a middle schooler needs is cleanser and moisturizer, maybe some acne cream. Who tf is selling you all this other stuff? Who tf told you you needed all this?

It hurts me to see. Their brains are too young for these types of insecurities 😭 no 11 year old girl should be obsessed with wrinkles, I wanna beat tf out of whatever tiktoker made them believe they needed skin that perfect

#i teach 14-yr-olds and let me tell you #my revealing that i don't wear make-up and use a $10 cleanser was cataclysmic to my students

hey thanks for the tag @kckenobi! haven't done one of these in forever and it's a friday night so what the heck!

do you make your bed? i don't, but my husband treats it like a religious tradition. and since getting married i'll admit to having been swayed to the 'made bed superiority' train. it is so nice to get into a made bed at night. somehow it feels...cleaner?

what's your favorite number? 11

what is your job? secondary teacher

if you could go back to school, would you? i'm about halfway through my master's right now and also working on getting my principal's certification. it's insanely hard to balance with a full time job and family, but...i've honestly begun to see my classes as restorative times. i get to unplug, be away from the demands of my kids (sorry girls), and just learn.

can you parallel park? no because i learned how to drive in oxford f'ing england and we barely even have paved roads

a job you had that would surprise people? absolutely none. i worked at a tea shop in high school. typical english girl doing typical english things.

do you think aliens are real? honest to god, i've never thought about it for more than 30 seconds at a time. it's probably ignorance but i just do not give a sh*t. and that't mostly because my mind has so many other immediate things to process at any given time lol

can you drive a manual car? nope because i am *not* cool guys

what's your guilty pleasure? making niche playlists on spotify (and expecting other people to enjoy them in the way i do)

tattoos? no and i can say with confidence i never will. i think they're amazing, but not for me.

favorite color? maroon/scarlet!

favorite type of music? honestly not a big music gal. i prefer the sound of silence when i can find it. (but taylor swift and beyoncé are on repeat in my home)

do you like puzzles? not the jigsaw variety. but i LOVE a good riddle/mind game.

any phobias? heights, unfortunately. but i do something brave involving heights once each year, so i'm slowly working on it. other than that—dental procedures. yeesh.

favorite childhood sport? football (soccer)! it is also my favourite adult sport! but i have grown to love baseball and my husband is a member of an organisation that exists to expand baseball in the uk. (it'll never work but don't tell him i said that)

do you talk to yourself? absolutely every single day. also i teach teenagers so...isn't that just me talking to myself all day every day?

what movie(s) do you adore? Little Women—both the Armstrong and Gerwig versions. umatched writing and execution. melts me on the spot.

coffee or tea? absolutely tea, but i never say no to an iced coffee (especially if it's an apology iced coffee from a student running tardy to my first period)

first thing you wanted to be growing up? ur mom

no-pressure tags: anyone who wants to participate because this one is fun and you should jump in! and also because i'm too tired to figure out who has already been tagged!
