If Teaching Was Like Olympic Swimming

Watching the Olympics - I'm a patriotic guy.

Enjoying the swimming competition, and was wondering if I could be as successful at teaching as our athletes are at swimming if I adopted their practice.

Get up a couple hours before school.
Shave my body.
Eat a high protein meal.
Go teach a class.
Do an interview about how my class went, and cliche my way through stupid questions.
Go  back to my room and take a nap.
Get up and stretch.
Shave my body.
Go teach another class.
Do another interview explaining why I did not need to do my best in this class, because I would be back later when it
counted.
Go back to my room and take a nap.
Get up and stretch.
Shave my body.
Go teach a class.
Hope to get a good night's sleep, knowing that I'm really looking for the party in the village.
Get up in the morning and do it again.

What a great day that would be.
