Well, that backfired.
I read this article about a thing that was relevant to my interests. Applications for this thing had just opened up, so on a lark, I threw my name into the ring. I didn’t think I’d actually GET the thing, because I am short and fat and socially maladjusted and have blue hair, but against all odds (take a look at me now) I passed each step and then they said “congratulations, you can do the thing!” and well shit I panicked and haven’t responded yet and I don’t know what to do.
I could do the thing.
I could not do the thing.
The choice is mine to make and there is a powerful list of pros and cons behind each one.
And I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DOOOOO
So I’m writing an annoying vague blog post instead and also thinking about lemonade. Have you tried the Blackberry Lemonade at Wendy’s? It’s delicious. Perhaps instead of making a decision about the thing, I will go to Wendy’s and get some lemonade and also panic some more.
Do the thing. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. You can always stop doing the thing if you hate it.
Definitely do the thing.
If you decide it’s not for you, you can stop doing it, but if you say no then you might not get a chance to do it again.
Do the thing.
