wishful thinking

I was kind of down in the dumps after the weirdness of yesterdays class. I actually was considering quitting school. I don't know if I'm going to be able to do this. I don't know if I'm going to be able to motivate myself....then I read Kayla's tinybuddah post and it made me feel a bit better. Today a customer came into work and we started off with small talk but then it snowballed into how much financial trouble she's in, how she has kids and has to help support them, how she's a widow, how she's been unemployed for over a year. She eventually just started crying and I kind of stood there numb. I told her I was sorry that bad things happen to good people and we're all feeling the pressure of the economy. She said thank you for listening and went on her way. I kind of should be grateful that I have a job (even though I think i'm going to stress myself out with working & attending school). If push comes to shove, I already asked my mum if I quit would she be able to help me make my minimum visa payments and she said yes...that's the one thing I was worried about. Oh, and my morning americanos.
