kellie and the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day.

today was a little rough.

i went to the advising center to figure out my class plan for my proposed major change and was there for over an hour.

even though i was told that i have a good chance of changing my major [regardless of the fact that the amount of credits i have will be close to The Number when i graduate],

and even though i planned out all of my classes and figured out that i will be done with school next april,

i left the office feeling so angry.

angry at the school,

angry at the stupid policies and hoops i have to jump through to achieve my dream,

and angry because the looks i got from the lady at the advising center when i told her the amount of credits i have right now made me feel really self-conscious.

and then i went to the sewing lab to pick up some stuff and i accidentally walked in on a class and the teacher got mad at me and told me to wait outside until they were done.

and i got even angrier.

i stormed out of the clarke on the verge of tears and started to mentally write this blog post.

it was going to be titled "myth vs. reality"

and it was going to be the rant of the decade.

after that, i went to porters and was treated poorly by one of the employees.

all i wanted was some interfacing.

i didn't want any attitude from her.

after THAT, i went home and prepared the lesson for fhe.

it was on elder bednar's talk "and nothing shall offend them".

after reading it and preparing my lesson, i felt a tiny bit better.

then i went to the kitchen and handwashed all the dishes [even though none of them were mine].

and then my fhe bros came over.

and i gave my lesson.

and right after i finished, i felt completely better and completely stupid for choosing to be offended just because i was throwing a pity party for myself [it's my party and i'll cry if i want to].

and THEN, one of my roommates gave me a bracelet she made after hearing i had had a bad day.

isn't it funny how circumstances can change simply by choice?

anyway, i guess the point of this whole post is to remind myself that i can choose to be angry or i can choose to make the best of the dumpy wonderful situation i'm in right now.
