Lessons from a student

Student: Miss Chong, I don't like my new English Teacher.
Me: Why?
Student: She's like Ms C***, very old and always nagging. So old already still miss.
Me: Is she permanent?
Student: Yes and she always think she's right. I quarrelled with her this morning.
Me: (Politically right answer) You cannot do this, she's your teacher, you must be obedient towards her. If she's in the wrong, it's better for you to keep quiet and don't argue.
Student: Why she so old already still come and teach?
Me: (*Frowning at sms, fast forwards to scene when i'm old and unpopular*Grits teeth and types reply) Hmm.... Old people also need to work and earn money right? Does that mean that when Miss Chong is old, you don't like Miss Chong anymore?
Student: Of course not. You so cute, how can don't like you?
Me: (*wary grin*) You drank honey this morning, how can you sweet talk your teacher like this.
Student: Yes. Honey is good, you want some?

Ahhhhh.. .students, don't i just hate to love them.
