beautifully and hilariously said.

i actually just got through having a long conversation with a friend of mine trying desperately to get into vanderbilt who is now convinced that his SAT scores aren’t high enough, his GPA isn’t high enough, he’s gonna be rejected, go to the state college, live a horrible life, and die lonely and miserable in a dilapitated apartment building, crushed by the weight of his stupidity and inadequacy.

i think i’ll just link him to this post, and tell him to stop worrying and just BREATHE.
