my writing class is having a bracket where we pick quotations from papers to use in our essays and vote on them to see who had the best quote. what if i didn't. what if i cried instead.

#i am being so fr when i tell you that i am too competitive for this #i know that it's ridiculous but i will genuinely feel bad about myself if i don't do well in silly shit like this #does it make sense? no #but i've spent my whole life basing my entire sense of worth and concept of self around academic achievement #and these days in college i am not quite the achiever anymore #ohoho i am in fact doing so poorly #but it's still ingrained in me to feel i need to be the best in every classroom and every situation #so competitions and shit just make me dread school now that i know i can't and won't be that #aaaaanyway #burnt out two months into college hours ✌️#lmao #boink
