Good things happen to those who wait

its true.

i didnt settle for an average teen job working at the local fast food restuarant. i wanted something i liked and got something out of it. i work at Bally Total Fitness(its a gym) and make around 650 a week working about 30 hours which isnt bad for an 18 year old still in high school. plus i get a free membership and can even workout after hours meaning i dont have to be working out with all the members and get the place to myself or the other 2 guys i work with.

and i didnt want to settle for a boring 4 door white cavalier so i waited around for a long ass time until i could get something i liked. i just picked up a 1999 red mustang today for 3000 thats in amazing condition. the guy is in the airforce and moving back to turkey.

lol


Yeah... I don't like this thread for 2 reasons.

1. I hate seeing other people succeed and be happy ()

2. I'm one of the most impatient people in the entire world... AKA waiting is NOT something I highly value or something I'm especially good at. haha I guess this is an example of why I should get better at waiting...


There's only 2 things I can wait on:

1. My girlfriend. She's female, she takes a long time to get ready to go just about everywhere. Thankfully, she isn't sensitive, so I can give her a hard time about it.

2. My parents. They are a colossal time sink. Anywhere I want to go or they want to go where they are involved, we are never less than fifteen minutes late... most of the time around 30-45 minutes late. They, however, are somewhat sensitive (WTF? I know...) and I can't give them a hard time.
