somewhere between a control freak and a nodder: the overwhelmed underacheiver takes on too much, wants to be a part of everything but lead nothing. she takes notes by writing down everything, when she bothers to show up to class, which she usually doesn't because she is either busy being overwhelmed by the fact that, omg, she's not getting everything done, or is asleep. this is a subcategory of Follower. she has direction for her enthusiasm, or, should i say, directions.. enough to prevent her from travelling along any one long enough to get anywhere. she did well in hs english class, since it was easy then to keep up with interesting readings, but has done less well since then due to disorganized thoughts. she craves the organization of math, and of school, but appears unwilling or unable to deal appropriately with the workload and necessary focus. give up her million scattered interests to do one (or a few) well? heresy! she has many aquaintances, but few friends, and maybe no close ones.
