Thinking is bad for you

Ok, so thinking is actually a good thing. Sometimes, however, it's kind of a downer. Maybe that isn't thinking that's to blame, maybe it's being realistic that's at fault.

Here are some examples:

I was looking at new plans for my cellphone and realized just how many features I'm going to lose once my plan expires in August and I have to switch to a new plan.

I was talking to a friend of mine today and realized just how many of my friends aren't coming home this summer.

I was thinking about the new job I took this summer at Bucknell and realized just how overqualified I am for it and how underpaid I'm going to be.

I was looking at sunglasses but the ones I liked were over $150 so I looked at another pair and they were $180.

See what I mean? I guess you just need to learn to be realistic without letting it be a downer. There's always a brightside right?

Wow I'm sore from working out today. Maybe tomorrow I can convince my dad to take his car to work so I can have the truck and actually go do something (even if it's just the mall). That would be nice since I start work on Monday.

OH OH OH!!! Stanley (my IS 1066 prof) posted our grades today... I got a B-, could have been better but I'm not complaining. It was crazy, the midterm and final were both so hard that the averages on both were below 50%. So there was a pretty nice curve. I'm happy. Tomorrow I get to find out how I did on the rest. Hopefully everything turns out as well as it's starting.

As a great man once said... err on second thought it was only Mendick,
"Peace out homies!"
