When I was young like in 1st or 2nd grade i used to believe that the teachers lived above the ceilings of their classrooms or the hallways. So you can imagine my surprise one day when a) i saw the custodian and my teacher in her room on a ladder looking into the ceiling, i automatically thought that she and the custodian were married and lived up there and b) when the technician came and i asked him what is it like up in the teachers houses in the ceiling and he just laughed and patted my head... i later told my mom and she laughed and then told me the truth.
