I Believed, and I Achieved.

I woke up.

9:52AM.

Class starts at 10AM.

This is a class that DOES NOT allow absences or tardiness.

I go through my options. Miss class and send an email to signify some sort of unavoidable issue. I would miss all we learned and important information about the Case Report due on Wednesday. Or I could show up late and be reprimanded severely.

I hedge my bets, move forward, and decide that I cannot simply WALK to school. Being 5 minutes late is one thing, but being 25 is another.

I decide to throw on some clothes like a demon, and I'm out of the door. I get in my car, speed off like a madman, however, proceeding with caution. I realize now is not the time to hit a pedestrian to make it to a supply chain class on time.

I believe with all my might that I will find a space in the metered parking right by Bauer.

I DO.

I park. I get out and I put as many coins in as I have. I have about 30 minutes of metered time. It's not enough, but I just have to believe that I won't get a ticket and move on.

I run to class. I walk in, and nothing is going on.

I sit in my seat.

My seat neighbor asks if I ran to school? I, out of breath, not wanting to explain the hardships, simply nod yes.

Class commences. I am happy to be here. Albeit I was 2 minutes late; I did not get reprimanded!

Class finishes. I walk outside. My car is there.

NO TICKET! :D

I believe, and I see.
