How is the wheat ear today?

Here at UMAR we have come at last to the end of the midterm exams. We started giving them last week, then of course, had to correct all of them, as well as give make-ups this week, then enter all the scores into what for me was a confusing Excel spreadsheet, that had the wrong formula, then do a lot of it over as teachers discussed the results and we decided to either ignore some sections or mark them differently. Tons of fun. However, there were a few moments of levity. As I corrected, I also kept track of some of the more amusing mistakes, and I include a short list here. The intention is not to make fun of the students, since I have my own share of pretty funny mistakes (I once asked for 200 chargers for my phone, instead of recharging my account for 200 pesos; the girl's eyes got so wide they actually bulged), but that sometimes, you have to laugh. And now and then, there's an unexpected truth.
A short sampling of the better (or worst) mistakes:
-John isn't a shower.
-Sometimes the local people was us.
-I am going to connect my mind with my heroes, with Chile's history, and original pollution.
-Puerto Vallarta is another place where you can have an excellent wheat ear.
-My favorite rock band is Argentinean: Soda Stereo . . . Now they are disintegrated.
-The course was challenged academically.
-I don't sometimes eat my tree lonchs.
-We bought thousandth of dollars because we lodge in the presidential suit.
-My vacation was very funny because I went to many places that like me.
-Here, people were typical clothes, as the food, and the traditional scream.
-Storm Man caused people to rain.
-The athlete was exhausting after the race.
-Where are you born?
