I have the "best" Good Luck ... ever

Luck: the force that seems to operate for good or ill in a person's life, as in shaping circumstances, events, or opportunities: With my luck I'll probably (insert horrible scenario here).



So let me share a little experience about why I have such wonderful "luck." I have a lot of stress-inducing, unfortunate experiences that seem to creep into my life (creepers). I wouldn't necessarily call it bad luck, but it is good fortune that comes to me in the end. Hence, I have the "best" worst luck, ever.


I recently applied for the Marriott School of Business and had so many things come up 左住ing me from achieving that goal, but you know what? I didn't give up. Even if I had a million obstacles in my way that were not self-caused I still journeyed forward. Not only did I barely miss the grade that I needed to get due to mononucleosis (which I did not volunteer to get) and other unfortunate circumstances, I also found out that I had a failing grade in one of my required classes. I contacted the professor (who was VERY helpful), and he informed me that the university would not allow him to change the grade. We had to go to the Records Department and submit a form in order for it to change. It looks as though things will work out in the end - and that is where my "good luck" comes in. It keeps life entertaining. :) That is it in a nutshell. I could go into grave detail, but hopefully you get the gist. 

Something that already is stressful on its own had undo stress added to it. Has this ever happened to you or am I just an unlucky lucky person? Please tell...
