Really struggling.

There was like a desk up at the front, teachers sitting up there, and you need to go and submit, you know, just set the paper up at that table and then you can go.
The anxiety, the insecurity, the worry, the oh my gosh, sweating, butterflies, sweaty armpits, like all of the things that happen.
In that moment leading up to

And that was in my mid like early mid-20s.
