Disappointment #1

Disappointment seems to come in three's for me... and number one of the year just struck tonight. I found out that I didn't make Helix Triple Beta Honorary Society. I didn't even get to the interview portion. Apparently they had 120 qualified applicants this year, and I was in the first 30 to get cut. Wow, what a burn. I suppose I needed to get a sense of reality. That even if I'm doing well, there's no such this as too good in this field. Ultra competitive, and I unfortunately am not cabable of what some others are.

I just hope now that disappointments 2 and 3 aren't my History and Physics midterm scores. Or that the lab I'm working on is messed up.

Now, I know this sounds like I'm very down on myself... but the truth is, I just know it means I need to keep working hard. And that I still have to try for things and accept I may not get them, but other things can happen instead.

That's all for tonight... I should go to bed.
