By that, I'm asking myself to shut up really. More than ever before.
Everyday, I walk into a college with 2-3 thousand hopeful students. And their another thousand teary-eyed parents. And I am scared. I am scared than I have ever been before.
To know that you're competing against thousands is one thing, to see them in person is another.
It adds up to less than 1 seat per 100 candidates.
Not that I had any self-esteem to begin with. But everytime I walk in through one of those lofty old gates my self-esteem is pretty much under the soles of my shoes, as I drag my feet towards wherever it is I have to be.
