Recently I've been feeling nervous at the most unexpected moments. Usually when I've said everything I can and a problem isn't slightly resolved.
I almost feel like there is someplace I should be or something I should be doing when I'm home, but when I am out galavanting around I feel like I should be home, a more steady and comfortable place. It's as if I think I can tackle any problem if I slow down, see friends less. By going home or staying there, I am attempting to legitimize my logic, but when implemented it never makes me feel like I want it to.
Tonight I explained to my mother how I was an average student and was not exemplary in any one subject leaving me in a more complicated situation that those with clear cut patterns. She told me I was great at something not taught in school, leadership. Ha. I never thought mother-daughter pep talks worked but I guess they do.
During a group meeting with a Brown representative today, when asked what was most important to Brown admissions, I blurted out personality. It was the first thing that came to mind. Obviously a freudian slip, as it is what I wanted to hear. Everyone laughed as my face became slightly pinker. Regardless, I left the meeting happy and a bit more confident.
My life is just beginning and I just can't wait. The brain is a big muscle (located right behind the nose) and all we have to do is exercise it more often so it stays in shape.
So in conclusion, I feel great and nervous and I have a brain, and so do you, so lets use them, and once I calm down my heart and fix my knees, I'll have my body catch up to my quick sprinting mind.
Sup witch choo?
