some of my hard work over the last month has paid off (to some extent). Although I still have to work hard and have things that bother me as a student and a desperate job-seeker, it's better than being bothered by nothing at all right now, then having a lot more to worry about later on.

Now I feel like having decent cards  (eg. A K)  in a texas hold'em game. This is probably not a perfect analogy (eg. I don't need to fold them in this case) but not a bad one to explain how I feel right now. It's not the perfect hand to start with (or actually there's really nothing called the perfect starting hand) if everyone checks(or even raises) to me. But after flopping K 10 9 (rainbow), I have the choice to play them aggressively and take the pot right there (because of my fear of someone getting a straight right there)  or just check and see if I can hit the nuts straight later. It's not an easy decision. But at least folding is not an option.

Anyway. let's work hard and see if I'll get the nuts straight.
