Ever have to do something that you really don't want to do but know you have to do it in order to achieve personal growth and maturity? I've been faced with several of these situations over the past few days.
It has been my experience that these things always seem like they will be worse than they actually end up being, but, until that sucky period of decision making and decision accepting has passed, it...well...sucks. I think I'm, on too many of these issues, in the sucky period.
I usually try to be a positive person, exciting to be around, and full of energy, but lately I've been negative, mildly depressed, and generally drained. It was cool for the first day or so, as I figure everyone gets a blah period now and again but now that it's going into multiple days I'm ready for a break from it.
At the risk of giving out too much personal information to bad stalkers (good ones are okay), I went to New Orleans yesterday figuring that it would make me feel like my usual rock star self. While I don't feel much like a rock star (even though I was wearing one of my Hard Rock T-shirts), and the situation, including my old apartment which I discovered had burnt, were depressing, I feel better about this whole hurricanes thing.
While there, I worked on a major assignment for one of my classes. I think the work I did was pretty damn good, but I'll have to wait and see.
Oh, and there's a costume contest at work coming up. My best idea thus far is to not show up that morning and say I'm FEMA. (I generally don't do political statements but I couldn't resist!) Any other suggestions?
