busy little worker bee

so busy today. and it's raining/snowing and gross out. yuck.

i'd definitely choose power over any of the other 2. i definitely wouldn't want to be famous (can you imagine having papparazzi taking pictures when you trip over something in the sidewalk?), and i wouldn't want to do things just because that's what you're expected to do. like christina milian says in the movie "love don't cost a thing": "being popular is a job. you have to work to get in, you have to work to stay in." i think being famous is the same thing, and that's a job i would not want.

if you're in a position of power, then i guess you are either respected or feared by others. what i'd really want is to be respected. and if you're respected and you have power, then you can get people to do whatever you want, even if you don't have money. no matter how rich you are, i think it's impossible to somehow get congress to grant more visas to colombians under political asylum. you'd probably be able to accomplish something like this if you're powerful.

and i think in most (but obvioulsy not all) cases, if you're powerful you must be pretty smart, too.

nush, congrats on getting the coffee machine cleaned! rupa and i do our part to help our co-workers by being pseudo-social chairs :)
