I signed up for this international competition at my university that is so important and I’ve been looking forward to for so long, and yesterday they told us that they will hold the first batch of interviews today at 10:00 am where all applicants were expected to attend. I set my alarm for 9:00 am (it only takes me like 30 minutes to get ready and 20 minutes to arrive) and I was so excited, I even practiced the whole day before. In the morning my alarm didn’t go off and when I woke up and checked the clock it said 11:41 am. My heart sank and I literally burst into tears. I’m still crying right now. I can’t eat, brush my teeth, get out of bed, or do anything. I’m so ashamed of myself and I can’t believe I missed the opportunity that I’ve been waiting so long for and was so excited about. I don’t even know what to do. My whole life is falling apart and I’m gonna do nothing about it.
