Two days later, and now what? I can't say I'm angry. Knowing my situation going in to this I thought maybe a 50/50 shot. And so the coin came up tails instead of heads. I have been trying to put into words how I feel now, after having seen the results on paper (yes, the mail was that fast). Best I can think of is that I feel like a slowly deflating balloon. The air seems to be gone, and it seems tiring to do anything. I haven't really cried, but it's hard to get my thoughts together. I need to develop a gameplan here, but I'll be damned if I know what it should be. I've heard I shouldn't have a problem next time, but here I thought I really didn't have a problem this time and was sadly deluded. What makes this any different? Where exactly did I go wrong that will make this any better this time? It's like law school all over again. And seeing my less than stellar performance that I could never seem to fix, this seems rather hopeless. Will working harder be for naught like it was in school? No matter how you cut it, will it all come to mediocrity? Who knows.
