Back to School

Back to School

By Tim Beggs ( Contact )   November 18, 2008

I decided to go back to school this semester. I've been thinking of continuing my education for several years and had the perfect opportunity to do so. The desks and the hallways were smaller then I remembered, but they had computers and nice flatscreens in each classroom. My classmates were welcoming and I was hoping they still had "Hotdog Day" every once and a while? I used to love those days.

My cousin Calvin invited me to attend his second grade class taught by Ms. Torres at St. William School in Janesville. Ms. Torres hit me with a tough question right off the bat when she asked what was the most difficult thing I remember about second grade when I attended St. William? I told the class that second grade was the hardest 2 years of my life! I thought it was a great comeback and after a moment got a chuckle out of Ms. Torres.

Did you do better than Sarah Palin when she went back to school this fall? Did you give the "right" answers?
