woahAwkward

Honestly, at work lately, I've come to prefer chatting with a student to chatting with an adult. Students are less awkward.  Or, no, it's not that.  They're just more honest about their awkwardness.  

When they are awkward, they recognize it and do what all normal 14 year olds innately do in this situation: swirl all facial muscles in close to their nose and yell (much louder than necessary), "woahAwkward!" 

I like this kind of honesty and transparency.  It's just so much cooler than eyebrow shifts and such (the grown-ups' equivalent).

    I do the awkward turtle, myself. Or the sign for awkward, which I learned from Mr. Howie.
