Brian:
For the first time in my life, I'm bad at something. And it's ENGLISH, for Pete's sake! For some reason, I've always been portrayed as this great writer with stunningly amazing analysis skills and witty repertoire. What happened? Why do I suddenly suck?

I want to blame Mr. Aase. I want to say that it's his fault, but really, I know it's not. Have I lost my drive? my talent? my muse? Am I so preoccupied with you, I no longer live up to my full potential.

Was I even talented in the first place? Was it all just a hype? Am I hiding behind a facade of intelligence? What of I'm really . . . ORDINARY?!?!?!
