Today I had a university interview. I was super nervous and felt it was all going wrong. The interviewer asked whether I had any questions so I said, 'If I don't get in what is the one lesson I should take away?' He gave me a really good, genuine answer and I started crying. It was even more embarrassing than if I'd just left without asking anything. I feel that I've probably failed the interview but also that I humiliated myself in front of the very academics who have inspired me. It's gonna take a while to get over this...
