I know I shouldn’t whine about the little things, I really know I shouldn’t, but it’s so damn hard to stop whining and worrying about even the most trivial of problems. It almost feels as if I have taken on a full time, unpaid job, worrying about frivolous trivialities and no matter how hard people try to convince me about the sheer foolishness of caring about trivial unimportant problems, I am somehow unable to avoid the worry. First there was the tickets I was worried about, and I somehow managed to acquire those, then there was the visa, and that went off without a hitch, and now there’s this huge packet in transit from Brown. No the packet doesn’t carry anything which is awfully important, anything which would prevent my going to Brown, it’s just that it carries a few books (ok not books, course catalogs, and something entitled “A Guide To Liberal Learning” which is somehow supposed to teach you how to pick courses), a few forms (CAP and seminar selections, CAP is kindda like this program where you chose a course who’s instructor is also your faculty advisor, so that you end up meeting your faculty advisor pretty often, at least once a week) and well it should be reaching me within this week, at least I hope it reaches within the week, since next week shall no longer be early-June.

Umm well nevertheless everyone is pretty sure I’d get it this week, and as one of my friends has been trying to convince me having an acceptance, a visa and a ticket means that I am anyways going to be attending Brown, and I know I can always call them up and work out a solution, the thing is it still worries me, and I stand unconvinced even by my own arguments. Well I guess worrying about frivolous trivialities is a full time job, a hazardous and unappreciated one at that, but someone’s gotta do it.
