my laptop is dying, so posts might be sporadic over the next week until it is either debugged or replaced.
Today, during preschool, I successfully helped a child overcome a major fear of the vacuume.
It was a better feeling than getting ten A papers.
Ok, so I may have gotten a C on my assignment last week.
And I may be totally, absolutely, horribly, geographically and historically challenged to the point that this World Civ course will eat me alive, then spit me out with nothing but feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, and a doubt that I'll survive the next 10 weeks,
BUT
I am dang good at my job.
I love my job.
At least I've got that figured out.
I just rewrote the paper.
Not really, though. Basically, I just started over and wrote a completely different paper.
Hopefully this one will fare better than a C!

Maybe that is the lesson you are to learn from this class. It seemed like getting into this class was divine intervention. Perhaps this blessing was multivalent so you could learn balance and when to let go. Don't feel inadequate!
Sometimes that's the best approach to papers - let's hope you prof is pro complete rewrites!
So, how did you get the child over their fear? Evie is still petrified of vacuums & hair dryers.
Koree is still scared of vacuums, how did you do it?
