Yesterday, my team and I did a competition called Battle of the Books. Although we didn't win I still wanted to do something nice for my team. So I decided to bake yellow cupcakes with buttercream frosting. I piped the frosting with a star tip and everything. Anyway, this morning I decided to bring them to at least celebrate our hard work. So as I was walking to school with my blue tupper-ware in hand I saw the crossing guard. I always walk on the same route so I've seen her almost every morning and afternoon. Before even getting to the street I began contemplating whether or not I should offer her one, I wanted to give her one because she was such a nice lady but I also didn't want to seem weird. While thinking I crossed the street and thanked her before I stopped, backtracked, and said "Hey, I was wondering if you'd like a cupcake? I made them and have extra and I don't know what to do with them." And continued on rambling. Surprising she didn't find me weird and took up on the offer with a smile on her face.
This made me happy, I felt like such a benevolent person. After, I continued the walk to school with a smile on my face because I felt proud of myself. Yes I only offered her a cupcake but maybe that made her day. It doesn't seem so exciting now but hey! I'm still smiling!
