QotD: Go Get 'Em, Tiger?

Are you a go-getter or do you wait for good things to happen to you?

I usually don't do these, but I'm bored right now waiting to go take my test for Music History, and I decided to write something while I wait.

My answer would have to be a bit of both, really! In most cases, I do admittedly wait (hope!) for things to happen. However, there is the not-so-rare occasion that I want something badly enough that I go after it. This includes flying across the country, driving overnight, putting myself through misery just to make something happen no matter how inconvenient it might be. I changed my life this year when I decided to switch schools, and for two and a half months I make an hour and a half-long commute to get there. It wouldn't have happened if I didn't have such a strong will to MAKE it happen, so I'd say that's one case in which I went after something I wanted rather than waiting for the opportunity to arise. :3
