chox:
I took this picture off of my friend’s facebook.
This is a picture of a lady that works at the 24-hour Burger King on campus and she’s probably the sweetest lady ever. Every day I’ve been there she never seems to be in a bad mood, which makes me simultaneously admire and feel guilty that someone her age is still working. I’m in college, I’m young, I complain and I get in bad moods, and here is this elderly lady, working a minimum wage job, who is happy and content with life. I’m envious. She’s found her place, whether or not it was her most desired destination, and she’s happy.She’s comfortable with herself. Here I am, upset about my vague future and impending finals, complaining about things that don’t go my way.
She definitely deserved those flowers she received from random UCSD students that day & yet she still deserves so much more for her pleasant disposition. The funny thing is, she seems to be perfectly content where she’s at; not wanting any more than what she has. That’s beautiful.
I hope I can find that some day.
I remember when my suitemates and i would go to Burger King last year and see her working and we would talk about how we if we ever won the lottery we would give her a mill to just chillax. but now, that seems kinda silly, because she seems happy and content. (but im sure she won’t mind the 1 mill).
anyway, the random flowers from ucsd students was hella nice. and my homie andrew oh took a picture. if only we got more coverage for nice shit like this than stuff say like compton cookout. haha
I couldn’t help but also comment. She is the sweetest lady ever!!! I would tell Bryan how 불상해 I felt for her, but at the same time.. how humbling it was to see her work with a smile even through late night hours. I want to give her a hug next time I see her
