Today was the first day of school where I live. It's transition day for Grade 9 (meaning it is just them attending, so they can get a feel for their schedules, the layout of the school so they can get lost in peace, meet their teachers, etc).

Despite being a substitute teacher, I was booked for today. So I got to partake in lots of fun activities with the new kids, but I haven't been up this early since June so I was tired come 3:30. Except then I had to go down to the field for a few hours to supervise the Girls Field Hockey practice because I'm their faculty advisor.

It was a long day, and I dragged my butt in the house when I finally got home to discover... my package came!!! My spirits immediately lifted and I ripped open the box and was absolutely floored by what I saw inside. Such kindness from a complete stranger cannot be expressed with simple words!

"I don't have any paper, sorry" - students "Don't worry Jimmy, I've got you covered!" - Me

"I don't have a pencil" - students "Hey bud, take your pick from this wide assortment of HBs" - Me

I am -SO- freaking prepared for school it's not even funny. There is no laughing here. Especially from the children who will be utterly disappointed that their lack of preparedness will not get them out of work this year! Mwa ha ha!

Thank you so much, /u/Mana122 You truly are amazing!
