Expectations

Sometimes our expectations of things are way too high. So why are we then disappointed afterwards? It's not like we didn't know, maybe deep down, that certain things weren't going to happen the way we would have preferred them to. I'm of the opinion that no matter what we may "know", we generally don't pay attention to that, but concentrate instead on what we want. We shouldn't be surprised in those cases to find that things aren't all that they're cracked up to be. We shouldn't get frustrated... irritated... annoyed... downright pissed off...

But we do.. well, some people do (me included), but others handle disappointment much better. I on the other hand handle it like.... *stomps feet and throws a fit* ... like that :D

LOL.. ok, not always, but sometimes. In this case, almost. I felt like throwing a fit, stomping my feet and clenching my fists like a child with a scowl on my face, ripping my hair out of my head, anything to keep me from screaming as loud as I can. :D I didn't really do any of that, but I wanted to.

Here's to hoping next time either my expectations aren't too high or the disappointment isn't quite so bad. lol

So... idk

It's been so damn long since I came here, let alone even thought about something to write. First of all, for those of you who may happen upon this, still doing well in school. Grades just came in, still A's so that's good. Learning medical terms right now... I have one word to say about that. ICK! Fun though, actually, so I'm not complaining too much. It's quite easy after you learn the word parts. And I've finally remembered why I detested index cards in HS. Oh well, it's how I learn best so might as well just get over it and carry on. LOL

So anyway... not much else going on besides school and work. Going through some rough times, but that's life right? Live and learn and all that jazz. I have learned something about myself that, after 29 years on this earth you'd think I would have realized by now. I get easily attached to people, very easily attached. And while that's not necessarily a bad thing, it's not *always* a good thing either. Sometimes it's a big mistake, sometimes just a little one... and sometimes it's a bit of both. Especially if a real friendship that has a very good chance of continuing is cultivated in the process of becoming attached to that person. Anyway, things will work out for the best. Even if they don't, we move on and try again. :D
