the majority of my day consisted of running errands before work. i decided to go to check out some drug stores to buy an eyelash curler. i was meaning to buy one for a while. i finally found a decent priced one at rite aid. as i was getting ready to pay, the cashier asked if i had a rite aid card and i didn't. but the nice man behind me (with two cases of bud light i may add) nicely offered me his card.) and i saved fourteen cents. even though it was only fourteen cents, it made me smile. it was such a nice gesture :'). nice people like that give me hope.
then afterwards i went to the bank and waiting for 15 minutes because there was only one teller open. then i got money and went to panera to pick up 2 chicken chipotles for my sister and i.
i didn't get any rewards on my card.
then i walked back home. ate. played mario party with t and then we both went to work. work went a smidge faster than usual today. it gets slow until i see my two favorite students who coincidentally are in the same grade and have my old kindergarten/second grade teacher. then work goes fast.
seeing them makes me realize how fast times goes. i share something with these kids that i don't get to share with my current friends now. i've lived in this town all my life and i've seen people come and disappear. i grew up here. and i can't really talk about my old childhood past with my friends now because my friends haven't grown up with me until jr high school. those little students helped me remember how fast time has gone. and how life was like then.
i remembered (with the teacher they had) we had spelling word homework and we had to write sentences with the words in them. and i would be the over achiever and write a whole story. and i got extra credit.
but after 3rd grade things started going downhill. and my over achievements started to go failure status and then things went back up again.
i'll always remember those moments.
