Today in class we had a pop quiz. To many, including me, it was a surprise. But at the end, it wasn't too bad because it was only 6 questions, 5 of them which I got wrong. But then while we were reviewing our answers, I started to think about how fortunate I was to be able to take a pop quiz. I mean, in developing countries, many don't get to learn how to read, or even write. A lot of people would do anything to get an education. But meanwhile, here at John Carroll, there are people who are just failing classes, wasting the opportunity they have to get an education, to have a successful future. I am not here to judge anyone, it just seemed interesting to me how different could life be in the opposite side of the world. But right now, I am grateful for everything I have.
I am even grateful for that pop quiz...
