I Can't Stand By As It Slips Away

Wake me up before I crash and burn should be more like put me to sleep before I crash and burn. Nah not really, I always prepare myself before this happens anyway. I realize that I set goals that aren't always the most attainable, even for myself.

Somehow I end up getting them accomplished by the skin of my teeth, or I just face that I can't accomplish it, but gahhh does it feel good to say "I accomplished it.. By the skin of my teeth.. If my teeth had skin.. *Feels*.. Yeah.. If they had skin".

To me, accomplishment is the same great feeling as when you're soooo thirsty or sooo hungry.. It's just a feeling of relief and fullness. To know that something you've either scrambled your ass around for paid off, or something you've genuinely worked hard for paid off commenced with the ending you hoped for.

This is what I'm hoping for tomorrow. I worked so hard today on my appeal for school, and I can only hope the woman reading it will take into great consideration what I've written. I know I screwed around the past two semesters, but I'm ready to do great.. And I know I can.

It's obvious with the work that I have done in the past. It's very possible. It's time to get stuff accomplished, and it's time to start the life I've always bitched about wanting. It's in my grasp. I just have to genuinely reach out and try my best, because I know it's good enough. This is the first thing I'm doing for me. I have to show myself that it's still in me to succeed.
