Day 281-Friends

(Wednesday)

Hey guys,

     So, similar to yesterday, I had another "Good gravy" moment today. You know that horrible moment when you realize that you've bitten off WAY more than you can chew? Yeah...that was me, like all day...Long story short, I am SUPPOSED to be playing piano for church in ONE MONTH after not playing for almost TEN YEARS!!!! Yeah, talk about stress! Anyways, my stress level from about 3-4, to like 5 billion as I received email after email of the songs...and I just about exploded on the spot. Instinctively, I whipped out my phone and texted Adrienne, mid-anxiety attack, and she responds, "Lol you'll do great, and you got a good amount of to practice :-)" As simple as that response to some people, when you have anxiety attacks, logic and reality are quickly replaced by panic and feelings of inadequacy, so a simple text reminding me in that moment that she KNEW I could do it meant the world. I am definitely someone who TRIES to take on the world, but also gets overwhelmed VERY quickly, so there is definitely a moment when I realize just HOW much I've committed to, and freak out, and today was absolutely an example of this. Anyways, it's great to have friends who can reassure me that I CAN do it, when I start flipping out. After work, I went to study with Katie, which was a GREAT way to get my mind off of all the stress happening at once. As we sat in the SYC playground, I was able to just relax, breathe, and know that I'm doing my best, and that's enough!

<3 Always,
Rose
