As I look for things to brag about to colleges, I reflect about myself. It seems that I remember the bad choices I have made. Why do I not pat myself on the back for all the good that I have done? It's time to be more optimistic. I read in a Times magazine that humans are naturally optimistic: when humans have babies, they say, "My son is going to be a doctor.... I'm going to lose 20 pounds..... I'm going to ace this test." There is one mistake I know is fixable, my procrastination. It's game time.
P.S. I'M BACK (=
