Irony I love you

It is pretty interesting how things work out. Yesterday I posted a quote about how success likes to creep up on you. Funny thing happened later in the day …

I got home after work and checked my email for shits and giggles (not like I don't check it at work enough eh?). To my utter surprise I had an email waiting, with an offer to TA for a course I've already taken.

I applied but I thought I was rejected and totally forgot about the whole thing. Oddly enough a friend was over at my place on the weekend and asked me how my TA application went and I said crappy, and now a few days later and BAM, surprise.

So I'd like to take this opportunity to extend success the invitation of creeping me out on a regular basis. Don't be shy!

Summer Days

Today was a glorious day. Sun, sun, sun and heat. If you had any doubt about what season was taking over, your uncertainties would be gone. If I had to guess, on the sun it was about 40*C.

Now get this. Some people think it is a good idea to wear black clothe. No not one piece, but a whole outfit!!! I was sitting on the grass and sweating just looking at them. Worst of all they were overweight. Oh did I mention the clothing was tight? OK, OK, there were others. I saw a guy in a leather jacket??? Yeah so it thundered last night, that doesn't mean its going to snow today!

C'mon when its this warm do you really think wearing black will slim you down? If I had to count the number of people wearing black I'd probably lose count.

So what gives?

If you wear black on hot sunny days, please stop, you're killing me.

Henry David Thoreau

"Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it."

My natural question then becomes…

How do I go by becoming that type of busy that I will forget my own drive for that same success?

Interestingly enough though, I have, like you have I'm sure, noticed that that is true indeed. The most successful things that have happened to me were indeed surprising and unexpected.

Dilemma sorted

I'm taking one summer class in university. I already have a midterm this upcoming Friday even though there has only been two classes, and two more this week before the midterm. So naturally the idea was to spend the weekend preparing for the midterm since it seems that Accounting is not as easy as other subjects for me. Anyway so I spent Saturday mentally *preparing* for studying, ending up not even picking up the book once. Come Sunday I was starting to feel the pressure so I decided that since I have such a lousy attitude towards the class why don't I just drop it. I talked it over and I was ready to drop it. Went to check out the deadlines for dropping the class and it turns out, yes I can still drop it BUT if I wanted to get my money back, I had to drop it on last Friday at the latest. I'm not willing to drop $500 and drop the class. So I'll be studying …

I spent about an hour thinking about dropping it, I wasn't all that convinced that I should, but when I finally decided, it turns out the decision was already made for me.

Blah! xD

Big credits to dizzz for this one, its absolutely brilliant! (:

Have a good weekend everybody.
