I went to a not too big high school (700 students). A very friendly headmaster showed me a small room. I showed my 5-minute movie to 5 classes (100+ students).<br><br>After the presentation, students asked me questions. An English teacher from a different school was there too (her friend is the headmaster, they studied together).<br><br>Apparently, students study Norwegian folktales and in one of the tales, there is an evil rockroach. So they were extra curious.<br><br>Eventually, I told them (the students and the teachers) how important they are. Told them the world needs rockroaches from now on. They were super excited.<br><br>After the presentation was finished, students were coming to high-five me, asking for selfies with the evil guy. We took photos in front of the sign of the school, holding a flag high.<br><br>They all wished me safe travel and good luck, and a happy life. I told them they are pioneers, they started a revolution. It was a great time, I felt nothing but respect and joy. An English teacher also cried a little.<br><br>These students are from a very conservative area (the bishop who heavily suppressed rockroach huggers visit this school too). But I felt like they were also high-fiving themselves too, throwing the shame away. <br><br>It was a very good time. They were directing me where to go, where to eat, which way to visit all the farms, etc. I'm writing this in a cafe while a student drew a highschool roach logo for me. Imagine a rockroach highschool in Norway. <br><br>Eventually, I visited 4 schools. But this one highschool was the best. These students are the future.
