I had a
pretty bad time in one of my classes today. I did not plan for it to go this
bad. In the end, the children were unhappy. I was unhappy as well. Reflecting on
it make me feel even more bummed because I know very well that we could have
gotten off a better start if I can stop taking everything so personally!
If a
student did not behave in the way I want them to it does not really mean that
they hate me or wanted to make me suffer. It is just the circumstances that
they were in made it impossible for them to act otherwise. And, I am supposed
to be here to give them a push so they can escape these circumstances.
Thank You
Lord for being here with me all the time because despite my frustration, You
reminded me over and over again my purpose of being in Juasseh and my purpose
of standing in the classroom.
However the
day got better (: I talked to Chia on the phone and am really happy that she
came back from Medan, Indonesia feeling charged! And, guess what came in the
mail today?

Now, all I want to so is spend the weekend curled up in bed with books and have Indie bands playing my favourite songs in the background!
