It always happens to me...

It never fails. I wouldn't say I have "bad luck," I would just firmly agree with anyone that said, "Alex, these kind of things always seem to happen to you." Perhaps it's a test of my character or more so a testament to my ability to handle such situations. I just know that "this kinda thing" happens to me all the time. In Mississippi, I was grouped with a few individuals that I am confident none of my other team mates could have handled. The 'Everest' of group work. In Texas, I was in the back seat of a car that hit a pedestrian. It was the scariest night of my life, but I feel that I could handle something like that over most people. A few years ago at another bank, I was robbed by a guy dressed in a paint ball mask and pointing a gun at my head. The three women with me at the time would not have been able to continue to work under the same circumstances. So, this 'annoyance' really doesn't compare, but it's uncomfortable nonetheless. Admitting one's weaknesses or shortcomings is never exciting, especially when it comes to miscommunication. We'll see how it pans out. I suppose the reason I am confident, albeit frustrated, is knowing that God has placed me in this situation for a reason; I look forward to the grooming of such experiences and the wisdom that I will take from it. semi-colons are great; I mean, you can honestly use them anywhere; anywhere you want. There will not be interruptions tonight, or there'll be consequences!
