There are some things that I'm tempted to say I am quite "good" at-- and that includes writing (be my judge). However, with great pride comes great doubt because writing could also be one of my weaknesses-- in a sense that I worry about my pieces (whatever it is, academic or creative) way too much. Mediocre. I am afraid of mediocrity. Recently, I got accepted into the Writing Department of an organisation in my university. Now, I usually try to be humble and downplay my achievements to the point that I rarely bring them up or talk about them to anyone but, I would like to express my exuberant giddiness about this one. I think I'm actually proud of myself for getting in.
Now, be rest assured that I did not lie on my application (objectively speaking, I don't think it was possible to). However, that picture does represent what I feel right now. I can't help but think that they have mischosen and I am actually ill-fitted for the job. I am afraid that the topics in my mind right now are too mediocre and not indie or obscure enough-- not good enough. I really need to do something with this self-doubt thing. It is ruining my temperament. Side Note: Saitama's not mediocre by any conceivable means but the characters of the show seem to think so.

The answer is: I have no inkling of an idea. Zero. Zilch. Nul. Nada. I had a math paper due. It's nothing, really. It's basically just a summary. She told us to write it in 1-2 pages. The professor even said that we just need to put pictures and bullet points. . . . Do you want to know how long it took me to make the paper? 7 hours...
But I must say, it was a pretty damned good paper, okay? |
