hey guys. welcome back to my corner of the internet where i currently exist in a state of pure, unadulterated panic.
if you hear a high-pitched ringing noise in the distance, don't worry, thatβs just my last two brain cells short-circuiting. because tomorrow is the day. the big one. theΒ AP Literacy presentationΒ that is worth approximately 400% of my grade (okay fine, itβs 20%, but itΒ feelsΒ like life or death).
πππ THE BREAKDOWN πππ
i am supposed to stand in front of 30 actual human beings and talk aboutΒ The Great GatsbyΒ forΒ TEN WHOLE MINUTES. ten minutes!!! do you know how long that is when youβre standing under aggressive fluorescent lights while your crush is sitting in the back row watching you turn the color of a ripe tomato?
here is a live look at my current situation:
my slides:Β look beautiful (priorities β¨).
my note cards:Β a chaotic mess of bullet points i can barely read.
my stress levels:Β ABSOLUTELY THROUGH THE ROOF.
internal screaming intensifies
like, why did i choose to analyze the symbolism of the green light? everyone chooses the green light. i am so unoriginal. mr. harrison is going to look at me, sigh, and mentally fail me on the spot. i can already feel my voice shaking and that horrible throat-closing-up feeling where you forget how to inhale oxygen.
i've tried talking to my mirror, but my dog just stared at me with pure judgment and walked out of the room. thanks for the emotional support, buster.
how i am attempting to survive tonight:
drinking an unhealthy amount of iced coffeeΒ (bad idea, it's making my hands shake more, but idc).
staring blankly at my laptopΒ hoping the information magically copies and pastes into my brain.
practicing my "iβm confident and totally know what i'm talking about" faceΒ (currently looks like i smelled something bad).
if i pass out tomorrow during period 3, please just leave me there. tell my story.
wish me luck, i need to go read my script another 45 times or i won't sleep a wink tonight. single digits in the chat for my sanity pls.
xo,
β¨π·πππΆπ ππΎππππΉ ππππΆπ β¨
