So I know that I haven't updated this blog in a while. But that doesn't mean I haven't been thinking about it. Kind of like a lot of things in life ... you've been meaning to do them for a while but just never get around to it. Personally, I believe that it's better to have thought about doing it then to completely ignore a thing, at least then you have acknowledged that it is something that needs to be done. And as I learned in my Leadership class today, sometimes acknowledgment can go a very long way. However, in this case acknowledging the fact that I needed to update this blog didn't get me very far, so here I am updating because one of my classes was cancelled. Sometimes it just takes the right set of circumstances to make things happen (that is a hint to some of my professors)! Anyway, now on to the meat of this little episode!
A couple of weeks ago, my boss and I were talking. Somehow the conversation turned to how I felt things were going really well for me and so on. Anyway, in her best other person voice she turns to me and says (as if I were saying this)
"I am the Luckiest girl at SUU!"
Anyway, it kind of got me thinking. I am the luckiest girl! In all seriousness, as crazy as things have been for me the last couple of weeks and in all of my frustration! I feel like there really is someone above looking out for me. That I can find joy in the small things around me and that I've come to the point in my life where I am not going to let the circumstances around me dictate my attitude or my ability to enjoy life. But I also feel very blessed and honored to witness some very hilarious things each day, that keep me entertained for example:
While sitting in the library computer lab studying for a test and having a girl ask me, after having sat there for 5 min, "do I have to do something to make this work" (in reference to her computer). I respond by saying,
"Oh you might have to turn it on." She looks at me and says "Well how am I supposed to do that?" Surpressing laughter I turn and push the one and only button on the front of the computer and say "Like that." All the while behind me two girls are fawning over this guy who can't figure out how to do some very basic math. At this point I stop and think to myself, by sitting here am I really enhancing my ability to learn or is this section of the lab a black hole where all intelligent thought is sucked out of you as you step into its force field. I then promptly stand up and move my studying to the second floor of the library, where the only thing I can be distracted by now is the view of the freshmen pouring across the street from the dorms through the window at my usual table. (Don't Worry I aced the test!)
