Impressions/emotional mess

[maybe_octagons]

I think the more I think about my impending grad school stress the more I'm prone to become an emotional mess. I'm a fucking rollercoaster. I do feel better. I'm going to nail this thing. I don't care if I'm not one of those students who always has something intellegent to say in class or in other undergrad classes. That's not the point right

there's many different kinds of knowledge in something like this: experiential, theoretical, practical, etc. you're going to school to learn the theoretical and perhaps some of the practical. you probably know more of the experiential and some of the practical that they just don't teach there, possibly better than many there. be critical of what they espouse as a given, be willing to see past the curtain of academic formality to get to the truth. you know all this already, i think, just admit to yourself that you do?
