Good things
I finally got my drivers license.

Negative things
I didn’t get the nannying job for the summer.
The incoming data for my experiment seems to be extreme and I’m worried I won’t get statistically significant findings. I am also having trouble getting participants for the final 15 spots.
A guy I was interested in and actually making an effort to actively pursue is not available.

I think that, yes, things don’t always go according to plan. But despite the hangups it’s important to focus on the good things. I have more negativity in my life but my friends and family are very happy and supportive always, especially when I succeed in something, even if it is something so little. This external support and encouragement helps me focus on the good things of today and not be dragged down by the negative. And for that I am thankful.
