Starting out my day right

So I had one of my classes for the first time this morning--Educational Psychology. I was nervous because the book was expensive, heavy, and large. She also had a somewhat intense syllabus. So when Ryan dropped me off at 5 to 8 this morning, I was freaking out that she would be super strict and very upset if I was late. So I rushed there and I got into the room 10 seconds after the bell (actually, there is no bell that goes off at the McKay building...). So I was safe. As I neared the classroom, I was greeted by the sound that has been in every class I have had thus far in the semester--chatting. So I knew that because people were still talking, class hadn't started yet.

I walked into the classroom and saw stacks of paper on the first desk and two boxes of assorted Krispy Kreme donuts. I knew I was going to be okay.



I sat down and put my things on the floor. Then I got back up, collated the worksheets and then selected the donut of my choice--a cruller. Those type of donuts are the favorite of Ryan and myself. When I eventually got around to taking a bite, it wasn't the freshest of the fresh, but it was still pretty good. It had all of the points that counted at least. It was a donut, it was free, it coated my mouth with sugar, and it made me relax. It was a little crunchy but that's just extra character for a donut of its stature.

As much as the donut was delicious, the best part was still to come. Because I'm now a senior, my teachers have been a lot more easy going about due dates and such. For this class, I get to write down in a "contract" when I will hand assignments in. But if you want, you can change the contract throughout the semester if things get busy. All in all, I'd say it was a pretty productive morning.
