sometimes i am far too pathetic. for instance, spending a good half hour trying to figure out what to wear tomorrow at the conference, thus tormenting beth and michelle with ridiculous questions and fears. an example: "see, i'm supposed to wear subtle colors. and this is subtle. but i'm worried that camel is a little too spring for this time of year. and i haven't polished these shoes."

i need to get a reality check. this is not a job interview. this is a conference. i will not be working at the new york times after graduation. i need to put aside fears about scuffed shoes, finish typing my resume, and have fun tomorrow! and keep in mind that i look good and camel is perfectly appropriate in early spring.
