Stressed and in need of help:)

Recently I have been so caught up in my schoolwork that I have lost track of time. I usually am prepared and on-task when it comes to the holidays and have everything that I need way ahead of time, but this year we are almost halfway through November and I am just now realizing that Christmas is only five weeks away. I now am stressed to the max about finding gifts for my oversized family and my closest friends. I have no idea what I even want to get them and am pretty sure that I am going to end up with a bunch of handmade gifts that aren't that well thought through. Plus on top of that I am piled up with homework and schoolwork. I haven't even thought about what I want  for Christmas let alone what to get other people. I am in desperate need of ideas for easy DIY present and will be extremely thankful for ideas and suggestions! Thanks you all rock!

Reminders of my goals

While at work this Saturday I was reminded of why I want to be in this profession. I had a table sitting in my section (I'm a server) that was super sweet and kind. It started off by me walking up and saying hi to the father and his daughter. I immediately realized that the girl had cerebral palsy, so I struck up a conversation and started asking all of my normal questions. The girl smiled at me with the biggest sweetest smile and ordered the drink and appetizer she wanted. Her dad laughed and said whatever she wanted. I got their things to them and sat down with them to get their order. The dad started asking me questions about my major and what my plans were after I graduate college. I explained to him that after I graduate I want to go back and get my special education certification and teach younger students in an inclusion classroom. After this I sat and talked with them for basically the entire time they were there, except for when I left to handle my other tables. They told

"I Got This Feeling"

I cannot shake this wonderful feeling that I get every time I walk into my internship classroom. My students greet me with huge smiles and exaggerated waves from all over the room. They immediately make me smile. It also thrills me that I can already see some slight improvements in some of the class's work when we have one-on-one time together. I get the greatest amount of joy and pride in my heart to see a student of mine that has been struggling with their classwork finally answer the problem without a little extra push. But what melts my heart the most is when my students get excited to share what is going on in their lives with me. Today a girl in my class shared the fact that her family owns a flying monkey, she then told me a fun fact that flying monkeys are nocturnal and they don't like the light. This is yet another reason that I have such a great feeling on the mornings of my internship, I love learning alongside my students, and sharing that they are teaching me thing

Learning Experience

Sometimes the most exciting things in life can also be the most frustrating. Recently I bought a car. I had so much fun searching and trying to find a car that will fit me. I finally found the perfect car and so I pulled all of my money together and got it for myself. It isn't much but it's 100% mine and I was so proud of myself for being an adult and buying myself a car. Pretty soon I realized that the sunroof was falling into the car in one corner. I immediately got upset. Of course this would happen to me! I called every mechanic I knew and, of course, no one could fix it. This was so frustrating to me, I couldn't figure out anything else to do other than take it to the dealership. Then my mother and step-father came to the rescue! They knew someone who could do the work for me. So finally things are looking up and my car will finally be perfect again. I am still so happy that I was able to make such a large step in becoming an adult and taking care of myself, but I am g
