"Don't Quit
When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit-
Rest if you must, but don't quit.
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of clouds of doubt,
And you can never tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar.
So, stick to the fight when you're hardest hit-
It's when things go wrong that you must not quit.

That's on a little piece of paper on our refrigerator. I woke up feeling really tired, went to school, got through the day fine, with just a little annoyance in Chem. Then came the time before guard, which was spent talking to cool people. And listening to music from Rent. And practicing. And all that good stuff. Then guard starts, and... it was fine until the end, at which point I suddenly just started to feel stressed. Mainly because two practices a week is not enough to get all this work down. And I feel like I let my annoyance seep out, and I don't know if others perceived it that way or not... so I don't know if I need to apologize. So I'm getting fed up with myself, and I see that little piece of paper, and... I just felt like it came at the perfect time, because I never really noticed it before, and tonight I needed it. So I decided to share it. And now bed.
PS. Mike, I know I told you I'd be at the concert, but then my mom decided that I may or may not have to come home... I really don't know if she'll let me go or not. I'll try to be there.
