Count The Stars

Be daring, be different, be impractical. Be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary.

Today, I f*cked up by not proofreading my cover letter to Harvard.

…to fucking Harvard.

So, I found out I fucked up about an hour ago. My mom had to tell me because I’m such a fucking idiot. I was all excited about finishing my application, so I sent it to her. I’m applying for a position in this neurogenetics lab at Harvard Medical School. I spent all weekend and most of today finalizing my CV and cover letter. There were some formatting issues, I think because of the downloaded font I was using, which made the document on my computer look different than the emailed version. Because of this, I didn’t see that my highly profane, stream of consciousness, sorta high ramblings from last week (rough drafts), were still on the page, yet to be deleted..the kind of rough drafts that you never fucking show anybody-especially your extremely Christian mother and Dr. Person from Harvard Medical School.

Today, I f*cked up by not checking my backseat when I left for work.

I was assigned to support a pretty high-level meeting in a facility that takes over an hour to drive to in morning traffic. I decided to leave the house early to give me plenty of time to get to the building and have time to enjoy a cup of coffee and a doughnut. I hit some traffic but still made it in a little less than an hour. I was loving the fact that I got a decent parking spot and had close to an hour to get my coffee, read the paper and then get to the meeting with plenty of time to spare.

Sometimes you’re so focused on the future that you don’t realise you’re in the middle of exactly what you used to pray for.

“forgive all the versions of yourself that operated out of fear instead of growth, the ones that viewed comfort zones as safe havens and abandoned boundaries to keep other people happy, forgive all the versions of yourself that didn’t know that love begins with how you treat you.”
