Don't take this serious guys, its meant to be lighthearted. When I can, I'll make the video that adds the tone to it. But seriously, don't take this serious.
You know when you have one of those really great and happy days, or when you get so lucky you don’t even know how it happened? Hopefully, we’ve all had those days, and I know someone did today.
Today, February 24 2012, was term paper day for me in English. My past history with these savage beasts has never been a positive one. Really, due to my own faults, I had never turned my term paper on time. It's not something to brag about, but it was something to fix. I was determined to avoid the stress of procrastination, so I worked diligently as should have. I was determined to avoid having nightmares, so I worked hard into the night. I was determined to turn this term paper in on time. And what a beautiful, simplistic objective it was, but what an ugliness it contained.
Nearing the end of fourth period, the weather kicked in and it rained like some kid who doesn’t have time for similes. Then it would stop, and then it would get harder, and then stop again. On the final rinse cycle, I was about to run to lunch, acquire bagged goodies, then dash a mach four into the computer lab. And it all went down from there.
Tornado drill, -10 minutes lunch time plus additional delay
Left book at home, reduced time paragraph length
Got book from friend, increased paragraph length
Sudden college counselor meeting, unknown delay
Unable to find correct area, -5 minutes
Attempted to speed thru meeting, +2 disappointed parents
Increased questions, lunch time reduced to zero
Skipped assembly, + 50 minutes
Teacher walks by, -2 minutes hiding under table
Teacher walks by, -2 minutes hiding under table
Teacher walks by, -2 minutes hiding under table
Teacher walks by, -2 minutes hiding in a peer group
Derailed by proofreading errors, unable to complete Two Quotes
Printer not working today, unable to print paper
Library, not enough money to print
Acquire money from friends, friends are at assembly
More teachers, hides in nurse’s bathroom for the remainder of time
Distracted by a teacher’s room with lights on a printer, door is locked
Goes back to lab to email, student account freezes up
Bell rings, summoned to class
Failure
The events that occurred to be today were heartbreaking. The events had chosen this day, 2/24/12, to fall upon me, and I was caught unprepared. No, the truth is… it’s the universe out to get me. You can often step on the universe and you don’t know it, but it actually gets small bits of revenge on you. One person isn’t anything, but everyone becomes too much. The universe becomes enraged and someone is gonna get it all. Now are beloved universe is a jerk, and its here to disembowel you. Well you know what? There will be days its not gonna get that sweet revenge on you, and that’s when you get those really especially good days.
Yeah, you do, don’t you? You enjoy them. I bet you take it for granted, right? I know you do. I’m not blaming the universe…actually I take that back, I am blaming the universe. You don’t stop think that someone right now is getting all that waterlogged crap. The universe works how it wants and I’m not even mad. And you know what, I was that guy. I dare you to tell me that people have it worse than me, come on, I dare you. You would probably be right and I'll feel bad, but I don’t care, caused I’m getting owned. I did all the ‘right’ things and that’s why the universe chose that day…today. I’ve been just as guilty as everyone else, but I didn’t deserve this. Nobody deserves this and there is no other way to explain the almost disgusting negligible chance of this happening. The universe works how it wants and I’m not even mad. And now I’m butt hurt. I got out class went to the next one knowing my next teacher would let me print it out, but today was a sub. Bad timing, unlucky you think? No its not. You’re wrong. The universe works how it wants and I’m not even mad. Don’t you forget how butt hurt I am. Don’t you forget how butt hurt some other guy, gal, or whatever was in the world. And don’t you take it for granted when you get that glorious day. I won’t find you if you decide to and I couldn’t find you easily. But still if you do, I won’t be mad, but try and take something from this. If you don’t take anything, I still won’t be mad. So much happened today, why would I be mad? I shouldn’t be mad, I can’t be mad. Not today, I’m not mad today.
