I thank God for small favors :)
Well well well, today was a little frustrating.My first week of classes went well! I had a good feel for my classes and thought i would enjoy them for the most part. I am taking chemistry with this older professor who is pretty anal. I don't really mind because I'm a good student and have my stuff together. But turns out that my TA got switched with another TA for my lab. I really liked my other one. She was nice, very helpful, very pretty, and i could understand her! This new TA is indian and i can't understand her at all. I know everyone encounters this in college, especially if you take a lot of science. But this is the first time for me. I had lab today with my new TA and another indian TA that was helping out. It was the most frustrating lab i've ever had. The labs weren't even meant to be that complicated. I even read the lab and did all the homework for it before hand. I'm not retarded, but some parts were still a little confusing. No one knew what they were doing. The directions weren't very clear. I couldn't understand these TAs at all. None of my questions got answered and when they attempted to answer I hardly knew what they saying. The lab members in my group and I finally finished 3 hours later when it should have only taken us 1-1 1/2 hours. I'm sure you can guess that i was pretty frustrated and annoyed by the time lab was over.
The rest of the day wasn't too bad. I got out early from my personality class and ran to the bus stop, thinking i could catch an early bus. Well i was wrong. I waiting in the sprinkling rain for 20-30mins and finally the 410 arrived. I waved it down and it passed me. I almost wanted to cry i was so frustrated. I had been waiting in the rain and was soo excited when my bus had arrived. I just wanted to get home. And then it passes me by. I waited another 20mins or so for the next bus. Finally i was on my way! I'm feeling kind of drained but relieved to be on a bus. Then out of no where, this older man is getting off the bus and just hands me a small umbrella. It was such a nice gesture and he didn't even know me or talk to me. He just gave me this umbrella. It was so nice and it made my day. I had been so frustrated and here was someone just randomly being nice to me. It was a little blessing and cheered me up. And you can bet your little bottoms i used that umbrella! I like the rain, but i had all my stuff and books with me and it wasn't the pleasant kind of rain. I really appreciated having that umbrella. And it was crazy because right before he handed me that umbrella I was thinking about how i would have to deal with the rain while i waiting some more for the 510. That was quite wonderful :)
So even though frustrating things may happen in our everyday lives, it seems there are always the little things that make life beautiful.
