Peter Todd1st, ChemistryThis term's been hard so far - it's always a challenge, it's never going to be easy... I remember on one particular day, I was having a real tough time in the library, trying to get things done, and it must have been clear that I was struggling. I got up and left to play a game of pool because I was getting frustrated with myself. About half an hour later, I came back to the library only to find a note on my desk saying nothing more than, "You can do it!". Set beside the note was one small Reese's Peanut Butter Cup - coincidentally one of my favourites - and nothing else. It was a really small gesture, but I can't explain just how much it helped me on such a rough day.
I've since discovered who left me the anonymous pick me up - a couple of third years who I've grown really close to in the last term - and have been able to do the same in return; it's the little things like that which make Jesus a really special place. |
