inexorableblob asked: So does being bored to tears by today's article mean it's a good thing not to have applied for the internship?

I truly believe that you frame your own world by the attitude you exude. Being negative to other people just increases the negativity in your own life. I strongly urge you to try just one day of positivity and see how it makes you feel. Search for the good in life rather than always leaning on a cynical outlook. I swear it’s the first step to being happier.
