"All our young lives we search for someone to love. Someone who makes us complete. We choose partners and change partners. We dance to a song of heartbreak and hope. All the while wondering if somewhere, somehow, there's someone perfect who might be searching for us."
~Kevin Arnold
Well, I don't know, this day was not as bad as I expected in some regards. Today was the first day the kids came in Working with Small Children. There are 8 kids. I do like them...but really I don't have a lot of experience with kids that young, and I'm kind of at a loss of what they know or do not know. I suppose that's why it's a good experience for me. It really is amazing to see how trusting the kids are. They just met you, and they have total confidence in you anyway, they just throw themselves on your lap, hug you, it's very hard for me to imagine myself once being like that...but I suppose everyone once was. I am kind of sad though that I won't be there tomorrow or Friday. By the time I'm back the kids will have already bonded with the older kids and picked there favorites...and I won't be there. I'm afraid they won't be as comfortable with me.
The poetry test was not nearly as bad as it was made out to be. I think I missed quite a few, but it was not the total massacre described.
In Shakespeare, we got our tests back from the other day. It was an essay test (the kind I like best when I'm in the right type of mood, which I was when I took it). Mrs. Gordan told me that I'm a phenomenal writer, and I'm simply brilliant, that she loves reading my papers, and that she runs out of ink writing comments on my tests. Haha, so that made me happy...even if writing isn't my favorite thing in the world.
Well that's about all I have to say. I have some spanish to do, some Statistics, practicing, and taking care of the neighbor's cat yet tonight, and of course the final touches need to be added to my poetry explication so I can turn it in tomorrow. Well I'm done, peace and long life.
