grades and emotions

During a day fraught with high stress, piercing headaches, an unhappy tummy, some of the biggest yawns ever, too much grading, and deadlines, 2 really good things happened. In fact 1 of them is an awesome thing:

1) I found a full size candy bar under one of the cabinets in my classroom,

2) One of my female LIA students voluntarily spent 2.5 hours today cheerfully helping me with grading. I tried to tell her, but she has no idea how much I needed that help. It makes me emotional to think that she would be willing to do such a thing. God is looking out for me and not all teenagers are punks.

I'm going to make it through another end of quarter I think. Ojalá.
