Bummed

First off, let me say that I am not typically a negative or pessimistic person, but lately I'm having a lapse in positive attitude. For starters, I was really excited for my spring break, because I recently re-connected with a friend from high school, who I hadn't spoken to in about two years. We planned to spend three days hanging out and going to the beach, and generally just being lazy, fun loving young people. He was due to arrive Monday afternoon (today). But Friday, he called me around 6:30 pm, and informed me that his house had been broken into, and he was robbed of quite a bit of money, along with some personal things. Of course this meant he could not make it to our trip. I can't imagine what it must feel like to be in his position, and I don't blame him at all for not being able to make it, but I can't help being bummed about it. I was so looking forward to seeing him again, as well as a much- needed vacation for me. I was talking to a friend about it that night, and the next day he suggested we go to Disney world for a day or two. I of course said yes, Disney IS my favorite place in the world after all. So I got way excited, and my friend was going to come over tonight, and stay the night so we could go early tomorrow. An hour before he was suppose to leave his house, he informs me  that he has food poisoning, and can't make it.

Now, I'm really upset, because I was so looking forward to the trip. It seems that every time I make plans, and get really excited about something, it falls through. This isn't the first time this has happened. It really happens almost every time I make plans, even since I was a little girl. I'm worried about my friend of course because he's sick and I'm sure he feels horrid. But I'm still really disappointed, and let down. Maybe I'm selfish, or a bad person, but I really wonder why it is that this keeps happening? Other people don't seem to have this problem. Maybe it's Karma for all the bad things I've done in my life. Whatever the reason, I'm bummed.

Happy Spring break everybody.
