I’ve been having some uneasy feelings lately… about all sorts of things. I’ll speculate its a result of a subconscious anxiety stemming from the whole transfer application process… I’m waiting to hear from the schools now. Even with a flawless college academic performance, marred by a horrific high school experience, supplemented by amazing extracurriculars, great professor recommendations and, in my opinion, ‘okay’ personal essays… I am extremely skeptical about the upcoming decisions. I feel that I could’ve had a better personal statement.. but everyone could have a better personal statement. I also feel I totally forgot to mention why I did so crappy in high school ( emotional stresses, moving a bunch, attending three different highschools, etc). Adding that detail would shed light on much of the questions my high school track record may pose.

Also… my summer internship… just thinking about it makes me ill… oh I’m doing it…. but its gonna be hell… and I’ll make the best of it… but itll be painful.
whats ur summer internship?
same one as last year… the southwestern company… direct sales door to door selling educational materials to families for kids k-12.
they tout it as an opportunity to run your own business… yadda yadda.. its actuality its a boot camp for life where you work ungodly amounts (80 hrs/wk,..13 hrs/day, 6 days/wk for 12 wks), get rejected nonstop, and battle unrelenting heat. basically teaches you how to control your attitude in the shittiest and worst situations…and learn to like it.
