New Teachers...

My first day of the school year was on Tuesday. I always hate the first day for one reason. New teachers. Why? I'll tell you a story...

I go to an Indian school so some people have some not-so-common-in-other-countries names. Like, Pavitharan or Shukha Deva. But still, nobody gets my name right the first time (Or the second, third, fourth, fifth... ninth time.) So whenever new teachers ask for everyone's name, I dread it.

Teacher: What's your name?
Me: Luke
Teacher: What? Lu-chee?
Me: LUKE
Teacher: Huh? Luchse?
Me: LUKE! L-U-K-E.
Teacher: Wats that? Luk-e?
Me: (Mumbling) close enough
