Today one of my students hit the button on my ipod to check the time without my permission and I got really annoyed but before I could reprimand her for it, she asked “Is that your boyfriend? He’s really cute, Miss.” I was certain I had the Messier 104 galaxy as a background, but I had forgotten that I had changed it to a picture of Misha last night before bed. So this is me getting stupidly emotional at 4:30pm and one of my older students just looks at me and says “Oh, I see how it is,” and she just flashes her locket, and inside there’s a picture of the guy from the Hunger Games.
And at that moment, we shared a connection from fangirl to fangirl.
