about this story

A doctoral student heard seagulls and the happy screams of a parasailer in the distance. They walked off the beach to the psychic on the corner and asked, "Will I make it? Will I graduate?" The psychic said to close their eyes and think of the first color that came to mind. They shared that they thought of green. The psychic said she could see a field of clovers, symbolizing luck, prosperity, and a positive future outlook! The student ran out of the psychic's shop, jumping for joy, knowing it would all be ok! As they landed from their jump... they realized, in the famous words of Nelly... it was only just a dream. In fact, they were still sitting in front of their computer, daydreaming!
