What a day... so long... so boring.
It felt a lot like Monday. Probably because I was at the Water Festival all day yesterday. Me and Alexandra went together and we had a lot of fun teaching little kids about planting trees and how to help the environment. I told each group to go home and ask their parents and teachers to plan more trees in the yards. Little kids are so persistant- I'm sure they will take up the challenge of tree planting.
Working outside all day with kids really made me sure that I want to become a kinderdarten teacher.
It also made me realize how much time I waste in school learning nothing.
Even the things I learn, don't apply to real life or my future, which is being a teacher.
When I'm teaching kids how to count, I'll sure be glad that I learned quadratic equations and how to plot a porabola on a graph in math class during highschool.
That class was a 140 hour waste of my time.
Well, enough of the negative. It makes me feel good about myself to be able to do well in hard classes like that. Even if I never get to apply it to real life I have the secret satisfaction of knowing that at one time I understood something that most people couldn't grasp.
I'm having such a "blah" day.
I really hope that my whole week isn't like this.
Maybe I'll take a nice long shower.
Yeah, that sounds relaxing.
