Isn't It Ironic?

I find it amusing that I spend so much time trying to teach these kids to be the exact opposite of what I was in school. I tell them to pay attention and put that book away during math class. I tell them to stop procrastinating and get their work done ahead of time. I tell them to take the time to read the directions before starting an assignment. Most of all, I tell them to push themselves beyond what is easy and find the challenge in each day.

If only they could learn from my mistakes. As I am sure my parents and teachers wished I could learn from theirs.
