World Teacher’s Day Pens

There are a lot of things that happens to me every October 5th. You see, I’m a teacher and that date is World Teacher’s Day. I’ve been teaching in this school for quite some time now. But every year, the October 5th celebration is always different.
Last year, my students did something I could never have imagined. I told them about Teacher’s day, and that if they wanted to give something to their teachers, they better not spend a single penny on it. I expected something price-less, like a drawing or a picture. I was very wrong because my students gave me something (or a lot of things) that I never imagined.
All of them gave me branded logo promotional pens. I told them that they should not have spent on the gifts. At first I was mad, but all my emotions went down when one of them said that they did not spend anything and they just got it from their own houses.
I was so proud by what my students did for me that I rushed to the faculty lounge after the class. When I got there, people were giving each other branded logo promotional ballpoint pens. Shock was an understatement. I turned around and never looked back.
As if fate really made fun of me that day, my son gave me branded logo promotional high tech pens the same night when I got home. I told my husband the things that happened that day. I thought he would be really surprised of the great coincidence that occurred, but instead, he laughed until he fell asleep. That was a good way to end the day.
