anxiety at its peak


2) Nervous I AM???? yes of course….Yes I am anxious and nervous today, one day before my Kellogg interview. It is such a shitty feeling. I am not thinking or unable to think of anything else but my interview tomorrow. I have prepared for all possible questions, still I am nervous.
What if I succeed? That will be the happiest moment of my life. Moreover, there is a need to succeed in tomorrow’s interview. Why? Don’t know. Really, I don’t know. May be if I fail, the feeling will not be nice. Sometimes I imagine opening an email saying- “we regret to say that you will not be offered admission” for the class of 2015. I
ok, let me see what is my fear. I fear that I may feel extremely nervous and forget everything in front of the interviewer. I may sit blank in front of him. But, this has never happened in my entire life. I have always had an answer, right or wrong, but answered I have always. This reminds me of the famous oven-non oven joke when the interviewer asked me about woven and non-woven fabrics but I mistook it as oven and non –oven fabrics. So let us rule out the possibility of going blank.
Next, I may forget some of the things that I have prepared to tell him. This will result in the interviewer rating me average. But, what if the other students are rated below average? But let us think worse. I get the average rating and other candidates blow the interview. This will result in denial of admission. This, fact will be disclosed to me only by March 20. Why the hell then I am spoiling my today i.e., Feb 21.
Nothing that makes you anxious is worth pursuing. Nothing that makes you feel bad is worth doing. It is everybody’s right to live every moment of his life in joy and misery free. A single moment spent in misery is a great injustice to the life.
Now, after writing 339 words, I am feeling a bit better.
Thought negative? Now, let us try to be a bit positive. I
