One Brutal Week

I've had a terrible week.  I've been really sick, as a lot of students have been.  I missed school on Monday in order to try to recover for all the Midterms I had this week.  That was okay, except for I missed some pretty important class sessions.  I finally got to feeling "a little" bit better on Wednesday, and got my paper all tidied up on Tuesday night.  However, when I went to print it on Wednesday morning, I ran into a problem.  First, I forgot my flash drive.  If that wasn't bad enough, I finally got to the library, and there wasn't a free computer in the Commons, because some people found that watching videos on Youtube was more important that people trying to prepare for the professional world.  I really can't complain, though.  It's my fault.  It was my irresponsibility that caused me not to print it off on Tuesday.  I work at a radio station back in my home town.  My boss has told me something that I know I'm going to carry with me for the rest of my life.  He said, "Proper Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance".  The seven P's.  Even though I've been inactive from my classes, I know I've learned a lot this week.  I've learned that it doesn't matter how crappy you feel, you still have to be productive.  I know that's how it's going to be in the professional world.  The world will never stop turning for me.  And I'll admit, I kinda wanted someone to feel sorry for me and cut me a break.  That's quite immature on my part, but hey, I'm getting older and learning life lessons.  I've also learned that I've got only half a semester to improve myself.  I'm going to work hard to pick things up.  I've used excuses all semester.  I think it's time to grow up.  I'm ready for the rest of the semester.  Bring it on!
