How does it feel to get the first day of school out of the way? A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. That's a very positive attitude. Confucius? No, Lao-Tzu. A contemporary of his. Either way, I'm most impressed that they're teaching Chinese philosophy in your grade. Did I mention that each step is over red hot coals followed by razor-sharp tacks?

Drink more water before you go to bed and when you wake up. It will make a world of difference when it is time to tackle your day.
