Realization

I am procrastinating. I SHOULD be working on the many projects I haven't started for my education class. But alas, here I am working on a blog that only Daniel will probably read.

This week has been really hard. I've had so much school work that I've found myself constantly whining and wondering why I'm even doing what I'm doing when it makes me so unhappy.

I had a piece of humble pie when I was at work the other day. I was subbing in a fourth grade class and there was this boy named Andrew who come to find out has a tumor behind is eye which affects his learning greatly. He actually is at a kindergarten level. As I was helping him write his history essay he started telling me about his fall break and how much he practiced his reading and writing. His attitude was unbelievable. He wanted to do this on his break!

It made me realize just how much I take for granted and that things wouldn't be so bad for me if I would just shut up and do it.
