My sis has life made. That's just life when you are a good high school athlete. You get free stuff, big scholarships, and four years worth of fame mostly via your pictures in the local sports section. So this past weekend was no exception when she won the state mile race and was offered a full ride scholarship to a small school. And my sis turned it down. Some people just don't know how lucky they are. It got just plain ridiculous yesterday when she found a four-leaf clover as we were sitting outside together.
Not that she doesn't have some bad luck, she did have tonsillitis during sectionals and prom. But it's not like my life where everything seems to go wrong. At least everything school/finances related. Which is all I really care about. Though other things that are really important to me have left me down too-like the one guy who asked me out disappeared and how I have virtually no friends (Yeah, I went there again. Still mostly true).
One thing I gotta admit though is that it could be worse. I could be a usually very energetic 18 year old guy, less than two weeks away from graduation, two days away from a band trip I spent $300 of my own money on, who just found out he has mono. Like my little brother.
Looks like something went wrong with their twin connection and my sis ended up with all the good luck and he ended up with the bad. And where my share of good luck from the universe is God only knows.
