It's all in your head... PA training Day 5

I see that success and happiness could very well be a result of a positive way of thinking. I just finished watching "The Secret," which gave an interesting portrayal of how positive thinking about your goals and values really help shape your life. If you focus on the bad, bad things generally happen, yet if you really want and focus on the good you can send out good vibes. Initially this sounds really corny I know... but then I started to think about this past year. After Learning 2007 Lauren and I really really didn't want this roller coaster ride to stop... I can't speak for her, but I'm sure we both thought about it a lot and how it should just keep going. Funny thing is... it did! Amazing opportunities kept happening, and continue to. This is in no way belittling the work of Ann and the rest of the staff at the EMC, but could part of it be these good vibes? There was one opportunity though, that I didn't end up getting. The funny thing is I wasn't surprised. For some reason I just kind of knew that it wasn't going to happen. Was it my negative feelings that doomed me? I don't know if good thoughts or bad thoughts have anything to do with it, but I think it's interesting and may influence the way I think a little.

Today was a really good day, we had out last day of training for Peer Advisers. To be honest I'm sad that it's over, I had a lot of fun and really enjoyed the camaraderie of the group. It was weird being the leader's leader though at times, but I think there was a lot of mutual respect in the group. After saying some goodbyes I decided to run home, and see my new car!! It's pretty exciting, although I'm unable to pick up my roof rack today and my boat but I'm certainly ok with it. It seems kind of surreal that this is my new car... haha!

I'll be running back early tomorrow so I can handle Spinner Place move outs, I guess I won't be moving out tomorrow though. Apparently the cleaning crew is behind and so I will be unable to move until possibly Tuesday... I'm less then impressed but oh well =)
