The First Interview

Received my interview email from Harvard and am all psyched about it. It is the first positive reply and from the best school so obviously there must be something in that application and something about me that made them pick me. I guess all the lying paid off.

I am not really scared about giving the interview cause I think I can manage that. What I am petrified about it preparing for it. My cousin who was helping me with the essays, is going to help me on this one too because she is the expert. She tends to do things in the extreme and I have a feeling being grilled by her is going to be really painful and annoying. I know I should just take it as practice because I need it but she tends to go ballistic because she always strives for the maximum and I am really happy with being mediocre. I don't think I aim to reach for the stars at all times, if I get there I am happy and if I don't I will survive, do not really care.

If it was left to me, I would just read through the questions, prepare some answers and then be done with the interview. But I think I am going to have to go through multiple sessions of questioning when I will just want to kill myself. I am really considering just quitting all of this and looking for a job at home.
