~:[CH12 - Day 72]:~ (Mis)Timing
I've always realized how important timing is in life. Often time, my timing is off, but for the position I hold now, the timing was perfect. I could easily be working in another field and my life completely different, however, I get to truly appreciate this job and share my experience with those around me. We headed out with rain falling lightly from overhead. Switching the route a bit, we ended up getting off a little early, but got to enjoy the exterior of Grand Central Station. As we arrived to the UN, we had to wait for a group that was attending a conference before we headed in for our tour. Because of the tight window, we had to rush, but luckily, we had just enough time. The tour was great and even had some time before our reservation at the AMNH or so I thought. As they only take reservations over the phone, the agent marked our time as 11:30am versus 2:30pm. Little did we know that the museum was closing early due to another event. Regardless, the students worked quickly through the museum and enjoyed a number of sites. It may have worked out in their favor as I know a lot of them end up tired on this day and just try to find a nice cozy place to rest. They also got a little more time to eat before our study session. The timing of this session is perfect as we all could use a break and they also need time to finish up the work they have left to do. While we have moments in our life where we miss the right timing, I hope we find a way to roll with it and figure out how to best approach the situation and make the most of our time. As while we may wish we had more time or the timing was just right, sometimes it's out of our hands and we just got to deal with the cards we are dealt before we run out of time.
