Failure #2

I could come up with several stories where I have failed miserably at something. However, those stories would take a while to write and I have a limited amount of time right now, so I'm just going to tell you my failure of the day. It was nothing to terrible, nothing out of the ordinary, so don't expect to be thrilled off the edge of your seat. (because I'm sure that's what happened when you read that amazing rant about a pen) But anyway tonight I went to the cafeteria (aka The Rot) with some friends of mine. Well it was time to leave and everyone had left but I was still gathering together all my napkins and plates. I grabbed my keys and tried to shove them in my pocket. For the life of me they would not go in there! So I resorted to wearing them around my neck...which I actually do more often than I should (apparently its dorky). Then I grabbed my two plates with all my napkins piled on top (I always have a bunch of napkins because I'm pretty much the messiest eater alive) and I attempted to leave. Well not even 2 steps from the table the napkin on top fell off...so I bent down to pick it up. Well as soon as I bent over and picked up the napkin, the straw in my cup fell out. I was starting to get frustrated. I bend over one more time to pick up the straw and another napkin falls off. I finally just set all of my stuff down, picked up my garbage and left. It was then that I noticed the table of guys sitting right next to me and laughing.

So that would be Failure #2...Failure to not litter i guess you could call it.

Although in the end I did succeed...hm
