Elementary vs. Secondary

Freshman Composition I, 9:00am

As I looked at the paper on top of my desk, I wondered why in the world I woke up for this.
The title of the paper read, I & Me.
Our objective? Fill in Me when appropriate, and I when needed. 
WOW! I thought to myself. 
Are these the lessons I'm wanting to instill in the lives of young beings?
Is this the mark I want to make?
Is this what I was born to do? Teach 3rd graders the appropriate times for I & Me.
*Epiphany*
I do not want to teach the bases of English to 10 year olds that pick their nose, and still think girls have cooties. 
Now don't get me wrong, I love little kiddos, I just don't think I have the patience, well, I also admire my sanity. 
I have officially decided to redirect my major to English, with a focus on literature.
Here goes nothing...
