Good News!
I GOT INTO GWU!!!!
It's so exciting hearing about where everyone is being accepted. For me, Rick, and Jeet, the long wait is finally over!! Although I'm still waiting to hear from NYU and about money from GWU
+/- Magical Moments last night (speech is done, speech is over)
+ State History Day!
+ Intimidating my competitors
+ Things finally feeling like they're going my way
+ Hard work paying off
- Being burnt out
+ Spring is finally here
+ San Fran on Friday!
- AP Test coming up
+ Twins games soon!!!
+ History Day Staffers rule my world!
= Things are going pretty well right now... I just wish I wasn't so exhausted
Now I'd like to share some quotations with you that I recently found and enjoyed very much:
"I don't resent working long hours. I shouldn't-- I'm the one who set up my life this way. I love to work. It's the thing that I get the most satisfaction out of-- and probably what I do best. Not that I don't enjoy days off. I love vacations and loafing around. But I think much of the world has the wrong idea of working. It's one of the good things in life. The feeling of accomplishment is more real and satisfying than finishing a good meal-- or looking at one's accumulated wealth." -Jim Henson
(I can really relate to that quote... I guess for me, work is life, and I don't really have a problem with that despite how much I complain about how much work I do, I love it.)
"Well, when the path is steep and stony and the night is all around
And the way that you must take is far away
When your heart is lost and lonely and the map cannot be found
Here's a simple little spell that you can say:
You've got to face facts, act fast on your own
Preparation, perspiration, dynamite determination
Pack snacks, make tracks all alone
Don't be cute. Time to scoot. Head out to your destination.
Chase the future, face the great unknown." -Gobo Fraggle
And with that, I'm out.
Peace, Love, and Good News!
