The World is a Big Lump

So I thought I would share with you two things that were discussed/executed today. The first is a common saying that was pondered on: "The world is your oyster!" I mean really, what does that mean? Someone said perhaps that there are a lot of oysters (oppotunities) out there and all you have to do is grab one. But I don't even like oysters. So why would I want to seize an oppotunity that I don't even like? So I decided that the saying should really be "The world is your oyster; now go out and make some pearls!" Because I like pearls and they are making something kind of valuable out of something that really kind of ugly (oysters are the most attrative creatures in the world. But someone said b/c there's lots of pearls out in the world, so they're not really that valuable. So here's my new and improved saying that going to catch on really fast- "The world is your charcoal; now go make diamonds!"

The second event that was executed today is my fellow employs (who have made it quite clear that I should not work in retail pharmacy if I ever do get into school)have taken it upon themselves to try and set me up on a date. Today the have started to try to set me up with the 22-year-old coke man. At least he's not 35 like all the other ones they had picked out.
