You know that sense of satisfaction you get after you complete a momentous task?
When you finish your work and upload it to WebPrint and realize that 4 hours of your life is culminated in these 10 pages and 30 printer points, and you're happy even though these four hours and fried brain cells are accounted for by these measly 30 printer points?
When you think gleefully to yourself, "Oh lalala look it's nearly 12 AM and I am still at the library! This must be evidence of my diligence!"?
When you stand up and your body feels sore from sitting on a wooden chair in the library for nearly 8 hours straight – excluding dinner and bathroom breaks – and you're distinctly aware of how you were due to shower 5 hours ago, but you're still self-satisfied? Even though those warm showers are often the one of the best parts of your day?
Yeah, I just felt that.
And that all crashed when I chanced upon the page of this genius girl I stalk. On top of being a literary genius and incredibly witty, I just discovered she also does pencil portraits that receive nearly a hundred likes on Facebook and look legitimately outstanding.
When am I going to be good enough? In something, in anything?
Someday, someday.
