The clock in one of the classrooms was busted. The back part had crumbled and hindered the hands from moving. It had been like this for at least 2 weeks. It suddenly occurred to me today that I can fix it. I only had 15 minutes. I took it apart as fast as I could, traced its size, cut a fresh background, emptied out the broken bits of the old background, drew some numbers on it, inserted it and replaced the cover. Of course I also wrote "We Love Jeremy-Teacher" on it. It's my own special form of propaganda I guess. As I was finishing up, the students returned. The teacher reacted very positively to my creation. Since this experience, I have thought of how I could make a much better background given 30 minutes. Now I'm thinking of turning it into a craft that the students make.
