jigsaw lessons

After a few months, I have finished my $1 jigsaw puzzle.

While doing it, I have realised that sometimes things aren't always the way you think they are supposed to be. OK I learnt that a while ago, but it was a good reminder.

Sometimes I would look at a piece of the puzzle and think - dude, it's totally gotta be red bit up, and I would then go looking all over the place to try make it fit into a spot where red would be at the top. I would then sit back and think, man, this piece mustn't be part of the puzzle. And then I would go back to the same piece, turne it 90 degrees clockwise, and then it would slot perfectly into place with the red bit to the right.

Random post, I know. But it just goes to show, things aren't always what they seem.

On a side note - aw crap, there were two missing pieces in the jigsaw in the end. Oh well, thats what you get for $1 I guess.
