I'm Having Daymares

So, the final grades came in from freshman year. I finished with the 3.2 I need to meet the CAP requirements to get into UT. But, every day a scenario plays out in my head, and it goes something like this:

- I am rejected from UT, and it's because somehow I didn't meet the requirements. Perhaps it's because one of my classes secretly wasn't part of the list of classes for CAP; or perhaps it's because one of my classes' GPA was rounded down or something unfortunate.

But, the way I feel is that if I made a 3.2, they should not reject me. That would be entirely ridiculous. If I don't get in, I think I will spend a day crying, or sleeping my sadness off in my bed. To do all the work, to work so hard, and be rejected even though I made the 3.2 and took 2 extra hours above and beyond the 30 hour requirement...that would be cruel on their part.

However, I've reviewed the CAP requirements and all the classes I've taken are the correct course numbers. 

At this point, the anticipation is messing with me. The stress is all in my head; it has My Mind Playing Tricks On Me, like the Geto Boys. 


I've been trying to find ways to unwind, these consist of playing basketball almost every day with my buddies David, Zach, Chris and Scott, chill time with Khaled and his sisters (Summer, Jawaher and sometimes Yasmin), and helping my parents out around the house.


For now, I cope with this song by A Tribe Called Quest.
