Student 1 walks into class even though she said she would be gone for a field trip.
Me: "I thought you said you were going to be gone."
Student 1: "I know. It's just...I just have so much stuff to catch up on that I can't afford to miss another day of class."
Student 2 [after overhearing Student 1's reason for skipping a field trip]: "OK. That just makes me feel so much better."
Me: "What, that Student 1 has to catch up on stuff?"
Student 2: "YES! Because if Student 1 is struggling to keep up then it must mean this class is so hard and would explain why I can't keep up too." (10/27/22)
