The problem with having only overachievers as friends is that you constantly feel as if you are slacking off. No, I have not started my college essays yet. No, I have not finished filling out the Common Application yet. And frankly, I have no idea what to tell these people to make them think that I am going to be a wonderful addition to their ( Read more... )

Same. Exact. Thing. Here.
I decided it's okay not to stress out; we'll all end up somewhere great whether or not we figure it out 14 months in advance...

I love you, and I haven't done anything either. Seriously, I have NO CLUE what to tell them because nothing makes me unique.

Call me and we can discuss our lack of potential attributes
