a little insecurity around

Two modules and a two-day week.

This looks set to be a rather enjoyable sem - a final one for learning and self-discovery.

And this journey has already started.

I was talking to B - one of the most vocal persons i've ever known - after class today, and she shared how she always gets so kanchiong when speaking in class that she stammers.

And then there was J - the friend whose humour to put others around her at ease i've always admired - saying she felt she was boring sometimes, simply because she takes an interest in a supposedly boring topic.

To think i had always thought i was the only one who stammers in class, and the only one who felt boring.

Moral of the story? There are always moments when we feel lesser than we really are. When our jokes fall flat, when our voice squeaks in class, when others slap high fives over Bleach (or whatever it's called) and we're left wondering what that was all about.

In these moments, remember: you're not alone. And you're probably better than you think you are :)
