Pieces of a Jigsaw Puzzle

Are you a teacher?

Since the time, I entered the University premises in the morning, I have been thinking of the days I started working here last year. My first class and the first student who enters is a slim attractive girl who is eying me curiously, wondering if she should talk to me or not. After the class she came up to me and said "Maam, I was just a bit confused and was thinking if you were the teacher or just another student". This happened to me a few more times. Once, another senior teacher stopped me scolding that I don't have my ID card with me (it was not made at that time as I was new) and that I should be fined :) He was quite embarrassed to find out the I was a part of the faculty.

Now that people know me here, many of them tell me that they took me as a student. Even when I came to meet the Head of the Department for the first time, he said to me "Oh! I thought that a student is here to see me". It feels good to know that I look younger than my actual years.

Owing to these thoughts and memories, I decided to dedicate my blip of the day to me and my workplace, everyone I know here and all the good times I have had here...

This picture is of my students taking a quiz today :) deliberately kept this blue while shooting.
