Ok, I don’t know what it is about me, but I really like compliments. Especially ones I don’t make any active effort to receive. It’s just a nice little ‘up’ to my day. And when that day starts with a nice little ‘trip’ to the DMV, it could use any and all ‘ups’ it can get. (even though I ran into a lady from church there. She works there and was able to give me my spotless driving record to pass along to my boss and then off to my corporate superiors)
So, in History one of my class mates wasn’t here for the last assignment, and he was asking the teacher about it. She asked if he had a classroom buddy, and when he said ‘no’ she pointed him to me and said, “here, you have a buddy. Laura, right? Pond? I remembered!” and proceded to tell him I was really smart and could help him out. Which I could, but it was awesome to
1) Be remembered
2) Be told I was smart
This is the teacher I who caught me reading before class and we started bonding over the book I was reading. She is so cool! I wish she taught American History, but I’ll have to go back to Mr. Estes for that. (and he’s pretty cool too)
For a day that should have been a bummer, it’s gone along splendidly. I even have my Visiting Teaching lesson prepared! (even if I don’t have a snack/magnet/treat/thing.)
