The interview went over surprisingly well today. Now to see if it bears any fruit.
What comes to mind after such things happen is my habit of remaining intense after something like this. I don't know. Perhaps it's just that here's a part of me that remains skeptical in a psychological padding method designed to keep me from getting disappointed. Ask any friend of mine, and they'll attest to this. I'm rarely to ever comfortable with anything. My roommate is witness to this everyday. Chock it up to decades of disappointment, coupled with a catholic upbringing that long suggested to never allow pride to determine one's mood. Action & attitude determines so much for me, and as I'm sure it has also helped backfire my endeavors many times in the past, it has indeed worked well to keep me shielded from instances of gullibility. One way or another, I'm grateful to this because it makes sure I have the time and energy to make backups of everything.
In this instance, I value my paranoia. But I'm sure it has hurt my ability to make momentous meetings and great experiences.
Gotta love those trade offs.
