This is how it always starts. A late bloomer never seems to be on time for anything.<\/p>\n
Imagine the horror, thinking that you have ten minutes to spare when you’re already an hour behind.<\/p>\n
You had assumed that 9 in the morning is 9 in the morning for you…point blank and period.<\/p>\n
However, you are just as dead wrong as you are dead tired and the only ass that was made was of yourself.<\/p>\n
However, what I lack in punctuality, I make up for in iron will.<\/p>\n
The last time I had such a late start, I made perfect creme br\u00fbl\u00e9e and nailed every order that came my way.<\/p>\n
This is no new thing for me.<\/p>\n
Late starts and late nights, trying to make something of myself.<\/p>\n
Sweating, grunting, groaning and remembering “this is nothing new.”<\/p>\n
This is the beginning of the story of your life, this too will be the end.<\/p>\n
“He had a rocky start, but finished strong.”<\/p>\n
This is nothing new, this is nothing I’m not used to.<\/p>\n
Hell, I was even born late; a late bloomer right out of the womb.<\/p>\n
But, you know what they say about late bloomers?<\/p>\n
They make the best flowers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
