It's not the end...

But it's close people.

Here are signs that you know you're nearing the end of the semester (I think some of these are universal):
-Your students begin to sigh heavily as you ask them to turn to a requisite page in the book.
-You seriously contemplate instituting a mid class mandatory "nap" time.
-You start joking that you will beat anyone who uses present continuious when we are ONLY working on simple present.
-Your students start to say "chicken" instead of "kitchen" because they know it will make your eye twitch.
-You have threatened to fail an entire class, and even though you probably will end up doing that, it won't matter because the school will pass them anyway.
-Noodles become a great option for lunch and dinner... and hey, why not for breakfast?
-You take two and half hour naps on a regular basis, despite the fact that you really don't have that much time to spare and you slept for a full ten hours the night before.
-Your students begin to tell you how much they will miss you this summer: so so much.
-You have to pause for breath after the third AND fourth flights of stairs.
-You get excited by the marked improvement that your students' english is showing across the board and fall into borderline depression at the students who seem to somehow have regressed.
-It begins to strike you as maddness that flip flops are considered slippers and therefore unacceptable to wear in public.
-In fact, just about everything begins to strike you as maddness...

Yes ladies and gentlemen, the end of the semester, or at least my sanity, is nigh...
