that I doubt myself here at ASU. I just can't seem to catch my confidence. I feel like I'm barely keeping my head above water. I know that
grades aren't everything, but I'm not going to lie, my ego is taking one helluva beating. A Rocky style beating.

you two are used to being big fish in a small pond, and suddenly you're in a much bigger body of water. Allow yourselves
to feel overwhelmed sometimes, but just keep aswimmin'!
