What kind of teacher is this? I am eating

Introduction: I live in Lloydminster, Saskatchewan and I have many places where I could do an observation, places like schools, daycares, restaurants, coffee shops, mall etc. I choose to do my observation at a local licensed daycare on Friday, February 9th.

Unfortunately, the traits associated with both males and females are a distortion of reality in which we are told to conform to either unrealistic or rigid expectations.

But, what has changed for me was the way that self-discipline was applied to not only myself but to the hundreds of people that I’ve coached over the years. In my early years of coaching, I was adamant that to get to the top was hard, but staying on the top was even harder. It demanded, or so I believed a ‘24/7’

1 Miss Loner’s Dumbarrassed Autobragography I was twenty-six. Till then, I had positively accepted myself as a lonerexual. I don’t have much to say in this case. And think. And discuss.

This year, I was invited to my friend’s birthday at Disneyland. I was hesitant about going, since I’ve only ever been on rides like Mad Tea Party, It’s a Small World, and Haunted Mansion. I knew all of my friends loved rides like Matterhorn, and Splash Mountain. As scared and hesitant as I was, I knew that my friends would never force me on a ride I wouldn’t want to go on. So I went, the first ride of course, was the Matterhorn. I waited in line with my friends as I decided on whether or not I should
