Today was a long day. Started smoothly, but it wore on untill 6, when it bottomed out. As TW and I know, you can’t be good at everything. But to be at least mediocre at most things always seemed reasonable, alas, it is apparently not. As I explained to my mother earlier, like a pencil sharpened one time too many, I feel like I am running out of lead. Seems like you can invest so much effort and energy into everything in academics, and it only sometimes pays off. How are we supposed to keep investing all our efforts into everything we do each day, when I know that my best isn’t always even sub-standard?
My Mom sighed, “College is hell, you will proabably never have a more stressfull time of your life”. And then, she remined me to “look to your friends, keep them close”. The three of us pumped some hardcore iron shortly after. Just finishing some (sugar-free) jello, and turning on some good ole Natty Merchant (holla to my boi TW), I’ve decided the bad day is over. Running out of lead? Psshhhh, I use mechanical pencils.
