and what a 3rd posting today it is!
I GOT AN INTERNSHIP! HALLELUJAH! FINALMENTE!
the only problem is that i have to go out of state to do it. i’ll be away from home for 15 weeks. but, after i’m done, i will then have a world of opportunity ahead of me. just need to tough it out.
i’ve noticed something very adaptive in my decision making. whenever things don’t go as planned, i might get nervous at the prospect of doing it another way, but soon i am off raving about all the positive possibilities that the new scenario may bring. internship=case in point. i didn’t want to go out of state, but there are so many good things that can come of it. another time=when i was in high school, i applied for an exchange program to france. i wasn’t placed in a family there, but a family in italy wanted me. for the first 3 minutes i was like “i don’t speak italian!” “*whine* but i want to go to france!”…and then i switched over to all the cool things i could do there. i could eat tons of pasta. i could see the leaning tower of pisa (which i did!). i could meet guys in the mafia and ride in a gondola.
i love the fact that i don’t dwell on the negative of the future but that i see it for it’s possibilities rather than what i feel is unfair.
*phew* wow, that was a nuts trip.
