Yesterday was a terrible day. I could go into detail about how terrible it was but let's just say that my car shut down twice. The first time, a friend came over to help me jump start it. We tried for a whole hour to no avail. After waiting for three hours, finally the tow truck came and was able to jump start it so I could drive it to autozone. Then a few hours later, my car stops again. Anywhos, I spent most of this morning trying to get someone to come and tow it to another auto shop.
Needless to say that along with all the studying that I was supposed to be doing, I am far behind in school and I'm spending a crap load of money on my retarded car. It is okay though.
Today, just now actually, I came to the conclusion, that maybe this is all a test. My patience was worn so thin yesterday and this morning, especially after I had to walk home from the auto shop. I am realizing more than ever that things do not always go the way that they are planned. Before, even when plans with friends went kaput, I would get upset. However, this week has shown me that nothing ever works out the way that you want it to. I wanted to just make it through this week studying and working and spending time here and there to enjoy myself since it is finals week but, that is not happening. I have accepted it and it's okay.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
I feel oddly serene even with the extra 400 dollars I'm going to spend on my car, the 70 muscles I have to memorize and the three finals I have to take. I feel like I can just brush it off my shoulder.
