Dear diary,
Today is going to be awful.
That's it
J.
Ive never been good at new beginnings. Im too shy, too anxious to make impressions. And it kills me that it's doesn't come easy to me as it seems to for everyone else. I struggle with critical part of my brain and can't seem to shut it off. But I guess that's partly why I am here. My need for perfection has brought me to these very steps. The steps of Cambridge university.
My parents were ecstatic when they dropped me off to my dorms. Tearful yet so proud. And yet I can't help this mounting pressure, threatening to crush me if I fail to see this through. This feeling that I'm carrying the dreams of my family on my weak shoulders. It should be the happiest day of my life, but I can't help this yearning for more.
Today I start my degree in engineering at Cambridge university.
