  9. Final Thoughts • Before this year I had done literally no community service. This year I totaled 11 hours of community service and actually enjoyed all of it. My favorite event was when I went and read to kids at S. L. Mason Elementary School for Read Across America. I thought I was going to not like it and dreaded it but I actually liked it. I enjoyed reading to the little kids and has really helped me decide to be a teacher when I graduate from college. Community service was something I enjoyed this year, and I will definitely continue to do it in the future.
