Humble pie

September 13, 2005

So, today was probably one of the worse days I have had in a long time. I went to bed last night around 3:00 after I had spent about three hours on a project. Not only was I really tired but I didn't finish this one really hard part of the assignment. Anyways I had a field trip in the class in which the paper was due at like 8:15 the next morning, so I decided to get some rest. I woke up today on time got ready and left to meet my class at 8:10. Well, I thought we were meeting at the same spot as last time but I was wrong. By the time I figured out where we were meeting it was 8:21 and my class had left. I tried to get directions but since all I knew was that it was a northeast neighborhood,I was told that it would be like finding a needle in a hay stack. Anyways, after about 45 minutes of tears on the phone with my mom, I have figured out that I should just eat humble pie and learn from this experience. I am currently waiting for my class to get back.

At times like this I find myself doubting if I am college material or if I should transfer back home to the safe comforts of home and parents. But then I remind myself that God is there always and that he will never give me more than I can handle. I also believe that it is in the challenging times like this that I grow into a more mature adult and learn about myself. So that is how my Tuesday morning started I hope everyone else's is off to a better start.
