Seriously, it's college not elementary school

Whenever I had to do this, I never knew something interesting to say and I was just thinking to myself "Wow I am so boring"

Seriously! Always hated college classes that started this way....usually the ones that did were a waste of time blow off class too

I always say I'm great at grammar and adept at walking

I always said "I'm taking this class because you had a good rating on ratemyprofessor.com"
