Love, Candy and Cavities

My girl said she wasn't doing anything tonight, but when I text her right now (12:44am) she isn't even home yet. Eh, oh well. This trust shit aint all it's cracked up to be lol.

I finished my scholarship application on time, but because my GPA technically isn't a 2.5 but instead and 2.43, I probably won't qualify for any. Lame. Life goes on...

Most interesting part of the day came with my cousin tonight. As we sat at Denny's we talked about life, in particular, goals. She said she wanted all this.......STUFF, and no matter how hard I tried to convince her she could have all the stuff in the world and still not be happy, she wouldn't budge. She's under the belief that she simply cannot be happy as an average person with an average job and average life. She thinks she needs the fast life, with a Maserati, lots of money and enough power to do whatever she wants. Fail.

I don't think I really need to explain that idea too much, I would assume most people understand that even if you get what you THINK would make you happy, you will most certainly find some way in your head things could be 'better'. I even asked her, "Is it possible that you could get a Maserati and still be a miserable person?" and she said yes. Instant proof that material objects are not the source of happiness.

So then I asked her, "Ok, so if you had the choice of spending the day with your loved ones and close friends, and it was guaranteed to be the best day of your life OR getting a brand new red Maserati right now, which would you choose?"

...

"Shoooot, I'd get the Maserati and see if I could kick it with y'all on Sunday before I go to work."

.....so disappointing. =/
