Because I'm dumb.

Hey, guys.

 

I've been thinking about the new episode, a lot. Usually I'm training or doing something else, but the weather tanked today and it sucked my motivation. It's probably my favorite episode of the season, maybe in my top 5 for the entire show. It... makes me kind of sad though.

 

I mean, I know those feelings. I know the headache and the tears of not being able to get something, even though you need it, and you hate it. You get so angry and combative and pessimistic, even though you're not being pessimistic because you know it's true.

 

It doesn't matter how talented you are at the actual skill, people like Twilight will always be the competitors because they have a high GPA. And it blows. The only thing discouraging me from being a fighter pilot is the fact that there are a lot of tests, and the barley have anything to do with flying. To be honest, everything else is useless.

 

I thought about that, too. I googled a ton of stuff about what I had to do, and I'm really just more confused. I do know that I'm getting a bachelor's degree in aviation, and that I'm gonna start working to save money for flight lessons. I also know that I want to be a fighter pilot, no matter what. I'm gonna get it, and I'm gonna take it as it comes, because I can't do anything else.

Can I just say, from the perspective of a Twilight, that it absolutely breaks my heart when people give up because they think I'm just going to be better than them, and that that mad face Twi made when Dashie commented that "you're good at everything" is mine when that happens?

 

Dunno if that helps.

 

I know that I'd never be able to handle aviation. Yeep!

It's a situation I can relate to as well, though I wouldn't compare the things I struggled with to your worries by any means. I think the important thing is that you're still pushing forward and still committed to chasing your goals, because that attitude is exactly what anyone needs to be successful. You're definitely not the only person who's going through these things, but the fact that you're acknowledging your problems and saying that you're going to beat them is pretty awesome, and the first step towards doing it for real.

 

Best wishes with your school situation and I have faith that you can make things work, in the end. Just keep working and moving forward.

Really, I wouldn't be doing it if I didn't like the journey. I like the pain and the tough stuff because I can handle it, and because I know the goal will be worth it. (Or at least, that's what Capt. Curtis said.)

 

As for acknowloging my problems, winning is kind of my thing. Pushing my limits, and coming out with victory every time I compete... natural.
