  let me save you time with one of your fears.  You will make mistakes.
   
  Okay, now you can move past that.  (I know, that didn't seem helpful did it?)
   
  The fact is that we all make mistakes, some more than others, and if you let that stop you from doing things you will have to sit at home doing nothing, which is what you feared in the first place.
   
  Making mistakes is only bad if you refuse to learn from them.  You're too smart not to learn from them.

  Fear came knocking at the door.... faith answered it and nobody was there.  These aren´t my words, but I do like this saying very much... and it IS very true ya know.  You  have nothing to fear except fear itself... so kick "fear" right in the butt.

  I've faced fear many times over---and yes it finally pushes you into action--just to get rid of the thoughts that are making you miserable.
   
  I was practically homeless at one point--depressed and dumped by a guy.  I was terrified.  I had a strange experience  (saw a white light in the woods!)  and suddenly knew what to do.  I went to the hospital for one night, got out and went around the corner to borrow money to rent a place.  Long story short----the fear of what was going to happen to me had me so blocked I couldn't think straight.  I should have borrowed the money 2 or 3 days earlier before I almost had a breakdown.
   
  I was scared when I quit my job and took the winter off.  I was terrified that I had messed up!  I got out and put in applications everywhere finally---and went to the one place I was most scared of checking out-----they called me before I got back home to come in for an interview, and that's where I am working now.
   
  Sounds like alot of "red tape" (papers and such you need) to get a job there!  Hope it all goes more smoothly than it has been--things get squared away---and you can relax.
   
  Good luck--you know I wish you the best in life, and that you finally make it to culinary school.  You would make a good caterer/party planner!

  There were instances when I worried too much about something and in the end, the worry, or fear didn't materialize at all. So what I do is, I don't worry much over petty things, I save it up to bigger and tougher moments. :D
  
  I say fear is only in the mind. If you let it eat you up, then that's where problems surface. Knowing you, you will overcome this phase of your life... Soon, you'll look back and say "ay sus, sisiw lang yan.."

• moonriver said on Jul 03, 2008....

  queenie -- Right now, I'm in a crossroads situation that generates the same mixed feelings as you described. Often it becomes an almost-physical manifestation, like having that all-too-familiar sense of needing to piss, but you know it's something else bothering you... :-)
  
  Tell you what. It's now July 4. After a month, let's compare notes again and see if there was anything that you (or I) really need have been scared about.
  
  You got the job. Now go and show 'em why you're called the Queen. Lol.

  Queenie:  I know I am in no position to answer your question.
  You know I am just like you with fear, maybe worse...who knows.  If you find a way to get through it and cure it, PM me. 
   
  I will say that if the company gave you a second interview and is asking you to fill forms out (I'm assuming background check permission, tax information, your ID number and birth certificate, etc.) you've def. got the job. 
   
  So, you got the job, I'm very proud of you and happy for you.  Now, take the bull by the horns and be responsible to set aside all of your paycheck except a small allowance you give yourself and you'll save up quickly.  DO NOT think that because you are getting a check every week that you can just spend it on anything.  If you don't have the cash in the allowance you give yourself, don't buy "it" and walk away. 
   
  I'm sorry about your brother.  Maybe we can fix him up with my bitch sister that I haven't spoken to in 2 months now.  Wouldn't they be perfect together!

  Not to worry QueenP, It's gonna be okay.  We don't know how it all turns out but that's the fun part.  I know you are worried and scared but think how boring it would all be if we knew ahead of time huh?  You're going to be just great at whatever you do.  Really.  Hugs!

• BurnedOut said on Jul 04, 2008....

  to be honest, sometimes I still kind of wait for this kind of fear to engulf me, because I dont feel like I've accomplished anything in life...

• queenparanoia said on Jul 04, 2008....

  fearing: come to think of it youre right... it would be boring if we know what happened next... thanks fearing... =)
   
  burnedout: so you feel that accomplishement with the fear... that's interesting and so true in a way... =)
