Delirium

I had a long week last week. I started a new job a few weeks ago and it has had me stressed. Many of life’s obstacles have been thrown at me recently and the combination of the two plus a family equals a delirious state of mind.

I had just had a horrible day, the day before my incident…and I was in a hurry at 7:00am to be done with my day that hadn’t even started.

As I walked to my first class I was ready to unlock the door. Because I have 4 classrooms I have a lot of keys hanging around my neck. I choose to carry my car key as well. I approached my door and pointed my key and pushed the “unlock” button. After 3 pushes of the button and no success, I laughed at myself. I was trying to open my classroom door with my car key’s alarm! How insane. I was so stressed and tired I really had no clue that I was being a complete idiot, it actually took 3 pushes of the button before I realized. I laughed and it made my day go a little smoother.

Take life and have fun with it. This is what I have learned.

Perseverance

So I have been going to college for some time now…some 9 years with a small break that was in the middle. I thought I wanted to be a Psychologist until I took my intro to Psych classes! What a drag, and everyone in class seemed to be there to get some kind of free session! I had to get out. And eventually I decided to go with English. I love to write, I like to read and I am good at it. However, it has been quite painful. The job I anticipated getting for so long has now welcomed me with open arms and I want to shove it down the drain. I am frustrated, annoyed, and stressed from the lack of appreciation of not only my time, but my most valuable mind. I have spent the last 9 years of my life, preparing to be treated like a piece of crap. But I plan to persevere. I plan to move forward, because I have yet to accomplish my life goal. This moment in life, a learning experience it is, SUCKS!

Yours Truly,
