March 9 marks the importance of Barbie's birthday, Panic day, Employee appreciation day, and Bang Clang day.
Last night before I went to bed, I had full intentions of banging pots and pans to make banging and clanging noises. It wasn't until about 10 minutes ago did I realize that I completely forgot about this oh, so important task.
However, I do feel like my March 9 can relate to one of these holidays, in one way or another.
Panic day began to set foot in my life yesterday actually, but we'll say it was today just for argument's sake. It all began with me deciding I would make a calendar with all my deadlines in it for university stuff. Once the investigating began.. I came across a startling and honestly, heart-stopping message: "Congratulations. Based on your academic excellence, we have decided to offer you a whopping $12 G's for your university education at Carelton University." Okay. They didn't exactly say it like that, but that's how I retained it.
For over 24 hours now, I have felt a little quiver of panic in my entire body, as if it were whispering "What are you going to do now! You almost writed this uni off, now they're offering you two years of education! This is a once in a lifetime opportunity!"
This is where my lying begins: I'm not 100% sure if I can classify it as 'panic'. It is a combination of so many emotions including FEAR, anxiety, excitement, pride, worry, sadness, longing, dreaming, wishing, hoping, HAPPINESS. I know people who have graduated know the feeling I am talking about. I feel inarticulate trying to describe it with petty adjectives that obviously don't do it justice.
I am going to leave off with two major points:
- Holy guacamole. I panicked like none other today. (Kind of)
- Tomorrow I promise I will celebrate Mario day in a way better fashion, and I certainly won't forget it.
All for now,
Aimee OC
