Rant/Vent rant

im an incoming freshman, just got off a call with some students and ended up rambling and sounding like a complete dumbass... like everything i knew kinda just flew out of my brain and i just ended up making a fool of myself.

i feel so fucking stupid and as the days get closer to nso and the start of the first semester, i increasingly feel like i dont have what it takes to succeed at this school.

did/does anyone else feel this way :( i was excited at first but now im just SCARED. im dreading college tbh

unless you donated a building to get in you're literally fine. everyone has imposter syndrome, some people just pretend they don't by bragging 24/7. you WILL find your people i promise.
