The other day, I ordered Chinese food at work (General Tso's Tofu... it was good). It was the first time that I had indulged in some in a while, so it was nice. Anyway, it came with a multicolored fortune cookie. The Chinese take-out places around me are stingy with their fortune cookies, so it was a pleasant surprise.
For some reason, I take these things really seriously. Fortune cookies, dreams, palm reading, horoscopes (occasionally), and all that crap. It's a bit of an obsession. I smiled as I read it and stuck it right in my wallet. If you've seen my wallet, you'd know that things get hidden in there for safe-keeping and stay there for a minimum of roughly two years. One day, I'll be going through my wallet and come across this fortune and smile in the same way I smiled when I first got it.
In the matter of a few days, I'll be heading back up to the University of Rochester for my sophomore year of college. This fortune couldn't have come at a better time. I've been very excited and anxious to go back, but I'm a bit nervous to leave again, and I'm scared of what will come to me this upcoming year.
Cheers to not getting too comfortable.
