on Tuesday i was waiting for the bus and i had gotten there late. i was starting to get pretty pissed off because I thought I had missed it. The next bus wasn't going to come for another half hour, which would push the next bus I had to catch another half hour later as well. It was the day before my exam and I didn't want to miss class. All these negative thoughts were going through my head and I was stressed out. The next moment I look over to my left where the bus usually comes and I see a tow truck. It's carrying a little sports car that's fucked up on the front end. I think to myself, well at least I wasn't in a car accident. I look at the license plate as it drives by and it says "THNKPOS" - think positive. So I was watching it go by looking to my right thinking, fine I'll be positive. I glance to my left and the bus is there. So, I've been trying to think more positively lately. The Maya Angelou thing on Sunday was awesome. She rapped a part of The Raven by Edgar Allen Poe. It was funny. The whole speech was about the 'rainbows' in our 'clouds.' She read poetry, sang some lyrics she's written and told personal stories. It's truly something I'll never really forget. I had a great day. My test on Wednesday went pretty well. I could have done better, but my effort was lacking so I don't really deserve all that good of a grade. That's why I stayed after class today to study for 2 hours, and did a bunch of stuff that's going to better me in some sort of effort to compensate for the lacking behavior lately. I've also started to go to more meetings, which is a lot better for me. I also called the Lynnwood Jail and they said that I am approved for the ankle bracelet. So I'm going to be doing that sometime soon. Oh yeah, I also applied at Taco Time... I worked at a Taco Time when I was in high school for around two years; I've got mad burrito rolling skills. So it could be a great thing if I get the job or it could just turn out to be as monotonous as before. Either way, I need a job. Shit son, I'm done.
