the waiting game.

i am not a patient person, nor have i ever claimed to be.
in fact, impatience is one of my more negative qualitites. but oh, can you blame me? we live in a world of instant gratification..we want something, therefore we find a way to get it. now. asap. right this minute.

so it's not hard to see why i hate and despise waiting. i hate waiting in lines, at the doctor's office (although my very unhealthy fear of medical professionals may be more to blame here), for the commercials to be over, for dinner to be ready. the real kicker is waiting for the big things.
meeting the love of my life; i know he's out there, but can he just find me a teeny bit sooner?! deciding on a career; i may have finally picked a major, but that doesn't mean i have any idea what kind of career i'll have someday. i know i won't be slaving my days away at the grocery store forever, but it would be nice to have a little more insight into what i'll be doing someday. waiting to live somewhere that isn't here; i'm ready to move out. i've lived at home long enough, trust me. i need to branch out and i know it will happen soon, but it's the waiting that's just so aggravating! oh that wait.

i know that someday these things will seem trivial and tiny, and well, just plain dumb. but right now they feel big. right now i would like things to happen just a little bit faster. or at least the knowledge of things could come a little faster.ok, i'm working on waiting. patiently. i'm learning to conceal my childish impatience a little more, but it's still there! and it's all about the waiting game. life is really just full of games..you just have to know which ones to quit, which ones to play, and which ones to just enjoy!
