On days like today...the only thing that makes sense is Panera.

Things that went wrong:
1. Woke up on time. Turned off alarm so I could start my day. Turned over to read text messages. Fell asleep. Woke up an hour and a half later. Missed my class.
2. Realized that I didn't understand the Geology that was due today. Not prepared for my test on Friday.
3. I don't have the things I need for my NC class today. Drove across town to go to Michael's to buy the things I needed. Realized that they moved Michael's somewhere else. Hobby Lobby was flattened by the tornados. Oops.
4. Huge Human Development test on Thursday- not ready for it.
5. My plan was to go to Panera to study... got here and realized I forgot half the things I meant to bring.

Things that went right:
1. I didn't die in my sleep.
2. I didn't wake up with any unsightly deformities. 
3. My roasted turkey artichoke panini with chicken noodle soup and an iced green tea hit the spot.


So right now, the bad things are outweighing the good.
Sometimes I have everything together and I feel like I can take on the world. Other times, not so much.

"I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school.
They don't teach you how to love somebody. They don't teach you how to be famous.
They don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor.  They don't teach you how to walk
away from someone you don't love any longer. They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. They don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. They don't
teach you anything worth knowing." 
Neil Gaiman.
