Note: Personal Rant
The past week or two have been horrendous. For the past couple months, the enjoyment from work has declined. In the past few weeks, it has decelerated to the point that I, and my team, are unproductive, as our client will not give us work. I am starting to look for other positions, inside and outside my company.
A week ago last Thursday, I was rejected by my first choice for business school. The other schools seem just as interested, meaning they are not. To top it off, I set up a ski trip with a bunch of friends in Colorado that started today. I recently dropped from the trip, hedging my bets that I would need to interview for business school in the next week. Apparently not.
Earlier this week, I was sick with a cold. I went to my doctor, who is fantastic. The good news was that I just have a cold, and that antibiotics will fix me in a few days. The bad news is he has some serious concerns about my health — my cholesterol is higher than it should be, I am 10 pounds over my ideal weight, my baseline EKG was inconsistent and incomprehensible, and I am an insomniac.
The past few months, especially the past couple weeks, have whittled my confidence in all respects, to nil. I am trying to take this in stride and be humbled, but honestly, this… just… sucks.
Awww I’m sorry to hear about the girl thing… that does suck. I told you, girls are backstabbing bitches. So does this mean you’re not going to any b-school then, just because you didn’t get your first choice? Well, at least that means I’ll have another friend in the area for a couple more years
On a parting note, here’s a quote from the Einstein himself that I try to adhere to: “If you want to live a happy life, tie it so a goal, not to people or things.”
