My Semester, in Under a Minute

Normally I like to write really long-winded, overly-earnest musing about my life. I like to take some small event, like walking up a hill or missing my exit on the interstate, to frame a heartfelt confession about how hard it is to live without Dad around. Or how hard it is to be an adult. Or how hard it is to be a teacher.

But today, I don't have the time. Today, I realized I'm slightly (read: extremelyveryalot) behind on work. I need to save my words and actually write that paper for my Teaching College Writing class that I've been procrastinating for ages. (I do appreciate the irony!) So here's how I've been feeling this semester, composed in Youtube videos under one minute. Enjoy.

But then I saw this:


And watched this:

Now I feel like this:


And now, it's back to work. Hope you're all surviving whatever you've got going on. Never give up!
