not so average joe

earlier this week i was very disheartened at the idea that i'm just not really good at anything. now, i agree that i'm decent at several things, but there's nothing in particular that people would say, "oh, well have you ever heard/seen val do that? she's amazing at it!"

you know, it's kinda like the whole "we're all in a boat and we need to defend why we shouldn't be thrown overboard" deal.... or rather, "we're all on a deserted island and we need to defend why we shouldn't be eaten by anne" situation. well, anyway, i was coming to terms with being average, with realizing that i don't have anything spectacular to offer, until i went to the quest cook-out.

it was there that celina said, "val, everytime i see you, i want to eat chocolate". most likely this was due to the fact that i was wearing a hershey's chocolate t-shirt (and last sunday i also wore a chocolate/chemistry shirt), but it opened my eyes! i discovered that i'm good at sitting on my ass, watching tv, and eating junk food. in fact, i'm so good at that, i inspire others to do the same! in the long run, i guess i'd be on the deserted island convincing people that i SHOULD be eaten first, because that's my contribution to society! sweet!
