Hmm..I think I'm a pretty decent artist, but I could be better. I wish I was better at a lot of things. Guitar is one of those things, but I think I'll go with sports. Football to be more specific. And not just the average Turkey Bowl champion or high school football star either. I'm talking college level starter. Top ten draft picks. Maybe even top five. The whole shebang. Anyone can get better at anything with practice, but I think I've missed too many practices in life to get as good as I want to be. National Football League. Making millions. Inspiring children to be great.
Katie wishes she was better at test taking. A good skill for a college student to have. One that I don't have either. It's easy to sit in class and listen to the instructor, even soak in the material. But when it comes down to the test, it's hard. Really hard. A silence that can't be broken, tension in the air, even time is against you..sometimes it's hard to prove you know the material from one piece of paper, written under a lot of stress. And for those of you that do well on tests without any effort on your part, education comes from the learning process, not the degree. The degree just gets you the job. I really do hope you can keep it.
