Day 317: Early Morning Motivation

I woke up this morning and I did not want to move. Unfortunately, I had my Speech class at 9am and I did not write my speech. I laid in bed and came to the conclusion that it wouldn't be so bad if I missed one class. But, my conscious kicked in and I started to feel really bad about not going, because a) I totally told a girl in my class all about my speech I was going to write and in fact had given her an idea for her own speech and I didn't want to ditch out on her & b) Meredith was kind enough to get me materials from the Sacramento Tree Foundation to use for my speech and I would have horrible if I would have let her time go to waste. In the end, I was happy when I motivated myself to not ditch class. Everyone was pretty impressed with my speech (that I wrote in about 20 minutes before class), and they all said the learned a lot of new things about our dying urban forest.
