Today's fortune:
You are next in line for promotion in your firm
Orkut is so full of ass it scares me.
Its 4-30 in the morning, didn’t even realize it had gotten so late. Time flew by in the weirdest of ways. One minute I was arguing with the brother, the next I was eating cake for dinner and now here I am typing away not knowing if these words are actually worth blogging about eventually.
Since I’ve been a kid, I’ve been an incredibly superstitious person. I think somewhere along the way I substituted weird superstitions for the twisted interpretations of religion that I tend to see around me. What’s happened now, is that I might not pray or believe in heaven or hell but I’ve kind of figured that there must be SOME sort of system of checks and balances somewhere. I mean, what’s the point otherwise? My sociology text book might say that religion only serves to give meaning to a meaningless existence but for once im going to just ignore logic. There has to be some reason why we are here. Is it because of Jesus or Allah or Krishna? I don’t know- all I know is that there is something.
I believe, that things just have to balance out. Call it karma, but I figure that if something good happens to you something bad is on its way (and vice versa). Normally, this works out fine, because when something crap happens I make myself happy and say that something good is about to happen soon. But now, with all these good things happening, im stuck wondering what horrible sorts of bad things are on their way.
In the last three days, ive gotten chicken pox and thus have managed to blissfully miss my exams. I recover three days before my birthday and well in advance of the ball. Ive also gotten into 5 universities and have gotten a major ego boost with the acceptance letters. Plus, I just got surprised by the most amazing dog ever. Two month old golden lab. Sigh. Sigh.
So as you can see, life is G-R-E-A-T, but these kind of things don’t happen to me. You know, like these spur of the moment happy things. Ive never wanted something RIGHT NOW and gotten it RIGHT THEN. I get it eventually, but it doesn’t feel the same. Right now, ive just been hit with a great dose of good luck.
And here I am, instead of enjoying it, im dreading the bad luck that will balance it all out and leave me once again on blissful even empty ground.
They say that people who perpetually say that the glass is half empty forget that its actually half full of air.
Wonder what that means.

i hate to be a bummer, but i have this theory of mine, which happens to be rather similar to your karmic good-bad cycle idea.
Good fortune always balances out the bad. Whatever goes around, comes around.
Congratulations on all the university admits. Which one you going to?
Orkut sucks! :P
The glass is always half empty!
