The National Day of Service is held annually on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. The Literacy AmeriCorps actually celebrated the day last Saturday, instead of yesterday. On Saturday, we did a neighbourhood clean-up in a neighbouring town. The partner organization provided us with breakfast, snacks, and lunch. At first, I was not into the idea of picking up trash in someone else's neighbourhood, but by the end of the morning, it was easy to see how many bags of trash we collected. My supervisors have visited my classes and office in the past week. I have made changes in my class schedule. I have also shaved off 15 min in the morning and 15 - 30 min in the evening from my schedule. I realized that how I can be more efficient in my administrative tasks.
