This week started out challenging because I did not feel very well. My students were very energetic and I felt that I was dragging throughout all of Monday. I was able to get everything done and I get everything prepared for Tuesday. I had not anticipated waking up feeling so horrible on Tuesday morning I felt very overwhelmed because I didn’t want to miss school.

I didn’t know if my students would get to everything they had to do. I didn’t know if I had everything set out so that my lesson plans were easy to follow.

At 5:45 AM the alarm on my phone blared some generic default tone that I had never gotten around to changing. This was probably the earliest I’ve ever gotten up in my entire life. I groggily removed myself from the pile of blankets on the floor that I had been sleeping in and headed for the shower, brushed my teeth, washed my face and searched my near empty closet for something to wear on my first day of school. Although I was absolutely exhausted and there was yet to be any furniture in my room, I was thrilled to be transferring to Pattonville High School in midst of my junior year and living in a bigger house in a better community.

I ended up being on crutches all but two months of my senior year. I didn’t realize this would have such a toll on my schoolwork. When it first happened I was discouraged and put in the least amount of effort to my homework and my overall learning which is the exact opposite of how I have ever acted before. After the first trimester I realized that it was up to me to change gears and realize what was important and that was learning. My situation didn’t change I was still on crutches but that didn’t affect my ability to learn and be a good student.

As a child, high school seemed like a place that was miles away. Everything about it- with the exception of the graffitied bathroom stalls-lit up my eyes with the dream that I would one day be walking down its halls as a student. Although high school felt so far away, Montville High School itself was no stranger to me. When I was younger, my mom tortured me by sending me to the Chinese program held there every Sunday. I also used the school’s athletic facilities from joining the recreation track program, which I stopped going to after two weeks from discovering my antipathy for physical activity.

Today was my first tutoring session. It was both over whelming and relaxing at the same time. When I first got there it was a bit over whelming trying to figure out where my session was and finding all the materials I needed. There was also an awkward transition between the session before mine leaving the room and myself getting into the room. The session before me went over their time, so I really didn’t have time to set up or prepare my space, which made me feel unprepared to start.
