More Friends :)

So today was another long (oh so long) and busy day. But there were two highlights of my day today and they both revolve around the amazing friends I have here!

The first was a very simple thing... I had to run a bunch of errands between leaving school and arriving on campus, so I didn't have time to eat lunch. I met up with friends walking from the car to the classroom and buy the time I got to the classroom I had a sandwich and an apple! I know it was not a big deal to the friends that gave them to me, but it certainly made my day better! :)

The second was, by far, the best part of my day. One of my friends made the point of stopping me while walking to the car and saying that I am one of the best friends she has ever had. I got teary (part of that, I have to say, is probably from exhaustion) because, while I know this person has been going through some rough times, I had been feeling like I hadn't done much to help her... and apparently I had done a lot more than I knew! I think she is just an amazing, awesome person, so the compliment made me feel super warmfuzzy. Thanks friend! :)

I know this program is making me work REALLY hard, but I definitely believe it will help me to become and amazing teacher... but in addition to that, the friends I am meeting here are also helping me be a better person... and for that, I am truly thankful. I think that who I am is definately influenced by the people I love... so if you are reading this, that most likely includes you :)
And now I should quit procrastinating and get back to finishing my homework :)
