#100 Happy Days; Day 1
Happiness is still being able
to cope.

| #100 Happy Days, Day 1 |
Today, I bumped
into a friend who I came to know who was doing the same course as me. I
happened to realized that I haven't seen him in any of my classes lately. He
told me he had decided to discontinue his course as he found it too difficult
for him. We had a great chat as I advised him what to do next and what path to
take. He is an intelligent kind man, and I am very sure he will do very well in
any future endeavours. As our conversation draws to a close, I wished him the
best of luck and he told me that I am going to do great. His words meant a lot
and I felt grateful that I am still coping with my course. His positivity was
really inspiring. Thank you. :)
#100HappyDays; Staying Happy

| www.100happydays.com |
I recently stumbled upon The 100 Happy Days challenge where participants are challenged to stay happy for 100 days and post pictures on various platforms to share their happiness. The beauty of this increasingly popular challenge is that it is not a competition but it is a challenge, a challenge that may change your life for the better.
It's free and you can register at their website: www.100happydays.com
To engage myself in staying happy and appreciating the little things in life, I will be sharing one photo that makes me happy for the next 100 days on this blog and Instagram (@michieemichelle) with the hash tag #Michelle100HappyDays, and all my written blog posts for the rest of April will be dedicated to happiness. So lets all strive to stay happy and positive as best as we can! :)
What I want out of this challenge
I hope to explore how often I can stay happy, and share one thing or one moment that made my day. I hope to motivate others to look for the thing that is going right in their lives, rather than focusing on the negatives. I am not the happiest person, and lately I have been rather moody with all the stress of school work, assignments, lesson planning and what not. I hope this challenge will change my view of the blessed life I have and my happiness in life for the better. I have got nothing to lose and everything to gain.
How likely will I succeed in this challenge
To be honest, with assignments, work, placements and other responsibilities, I would be surprised if I lasted a full 7 days. However, with a low expectation, I may surprise myself!
Why should others attempt this challenge
Life is a journey, not a destination. We go through ups and downs, with every challenge we face in life. This challenge will influence everyone to find the happiness in our lives, whether we are 16, 30 or even 50. At the end of this challenge, we will hopefully have 100 moments of happiness to remember.

That one kid in the classroom
I had the experience of having that one kid in the classroom. He does not want to study to go to uni. He wants to just get out there and work.
That one kid that disrupts the class.
"Miss, I don't have a pencil"..
"Miss, I don't know what I need to do"..
He feels unmotivated.
He is not there to learn, or listen.
When do you, as a teacher running the class give up? Or do you not give up and push them to work hard and flourish as individuals.
I think he is a great kid, and I know he has a lot of potential. I can see it.
He wants to work, great. However, the skills he learn in the classroom will carry him throughout his working life.
So, here's to you. You have your whole life ahead of you, and trust me, if you just put a little bit of effort in, it will make a world of difference.
