A Degree In Awesome
(I am in a political science class doing a lecture on the Constitution.)
Teacher: “I will give a degree to anyone who can recite the preamble to the Constitution from memory.”
(After a moment, I shakily raise my hand. He nods at me to proceed.)
Me: “We the people, in order to… Um, I have to sing it.”
Teacher: *slightly puzzled* “Uh, go ahead.”
(I then sang the Schoolhouse Rock preamble song that had been drilled into my head for years. The class applauded, my teacher wrote my degree title on a sheet of notebook paper, and one student insisted on calling me Kelly Clarkson for the rest of the class. It was my crowning achievement in college.)
