Day 110: Shakespeare's High School Poetry...On Irony

Life is full of irony. Your last day of vacation has the nicest, sun shiniest weather. You spend 4 years at the same job and drive in 90 minutes of rush hour, but on your last day the road is as open as a 3:00 am drive. The hot girl in class talks to you the day you get a girlfriend. I’ve seen it happen a million times.  

Today Was A Good Day

Make lots of good friends.
Try to get good grades.
Be a person someone can look up to,
And always mean what you say.
Try to be humble and grateful,
For the all things that you have.
Be confident and proud of who you are.
And always try not to brag.
Always offer a shoulder,
When someone needs a good cry.
Be fully honest but gentle with them,
And always look them in the eye.
Always follow the law.
Then go to bed alone.
Wonder why you’ve failed.
While you laugh at your own jokes.
Call everyone you know,
And try to ask for help.
Then wonder why no one answers.
While you on the couch, in the dark, by yourself.
