Story of My Life

story of my life: I worked on a job application for 3 hours yesterday, only to have Fordham's consistently inconsistent internet connection prevent me from submitting it. After 20 minutes, I lost everything I had filled out, including essays. I woke up 5 hours later to go to work.

story of my life: I had to sit through a 4 hour defensive driving course in order to qualify as a driver on my Global Outreach trip. I learned that I shouldn't drink and drive, and that I cannot control the weather. And apparently, you should always stop at stop signs.

story of my life: I haven't been to the gym in 3 days, but ate so much free food yesterday that I could barely sleep.

story of my life: I have now added a pair of red boots to the collection of clothes that has mysteriously disappeared from my closet. By graduation I will be walking around in flip flops and a parka and my blue fedora.

story of my life: I had a presentation in my Economics of Energy class, and decided to dress to impress (there is more testosterone in that one class than in all of McMahon Hall). Of course, while I am presenting, I am constantly sneezing and blowing my nose, and ultimately attract only distant sympathizers handing me useless Claritin pills.

story of my life: The only job offers I have received for next year are those requiring a bank account and paying over $3000/month for a 2-hr day job. If all else fails, I may get famous by bringing a major scam to court.

story of my life: Everyone got together and decided this semester was the semester to have a boyfriend or get married. I decided I needed to learn how to play the guitar, cook pasta with olive oil and garlic, and buy pretty dresses. A semester has gone by, and I play an invisible air guitar, eat pasta with Ragu, and wear pants because it's easier.

story of my life: The guy at the coffee cart by my office gave me a huge smile when he handed me my regular order (small, with skim milk and a little sugar). He called me sweetie and told me to have a good day.
It's sunny out.
