runner up
i love writing. i cant help it. its a shame that im not very good :) made it to the final interviews once again. did not come out on top. again 2nd, runner up. i had this fear growing up that i would always be second. mostly because in little league soccer i was always behind this girl teresa. i find myself here again. i even got the second highest score on the psychology exit exam at vanguard. perhaps a blessing in humility. im gonna have to think of that way. i dont really know if what they say is true... that interviewing is good practice. im sure it is. but i was thinking this on the way home... that a lot of life is putting yourself out there. most times you will be rejected by an employer, by a potential lover, by even someone you want to serve... like in youth outreach, this happens weekly. but... this is what life is and when youre in... its so great. invitations can be wonderful and sometimes just heartbreaking when you need to turn them down. so i guess, where i am, in second... is not so bad :)
