Grateful for Growth...

Thursday, August 28, 2008

1. Finishing an assessment task - the first for the semester - I always feel a sense of accomplishment when I finally hand in an assignment.
2. Being able to put what I have learnt into practice - teaching Miss M a new method for multiplication and have her understand what it is I was trying to teach. There is hope for me yet.
3. Helping Mr E pick out a playlist from my itunes library - apparetly I have got some cool stuff for a mum. Then again, as long as it has a great beat, a guitar riff and is sung by a boy he is happy - oh if only everything was as easy as it is when you are 6!!
4. Looking forward to an early night - after the late one I had the last couple of nights thanks to grateful number 1
5. My growth over the last few years - for 2 reasons. Firstly, I was able to undertake a task in my counselling unit I would have never been able to do before the uni adventure began and secondly, an assessment I am doing in one of my units is taking me completely outside of not only my comfort zone but I am going it alone - more or less - as my trusty "you can do it or I will kick you in the butt for being an idiot/security blanket' partner is in another tute and this is forcing me to work with other people - a scary, scary event in my world but much more enjoyable than I expected. How's that for growth!!!
