So sure of that and yet so insecure in everything else - and so easily intimidated. <br />Goodness me you have stirred up a lot of memories. Thank you for sharing and giving me so much to mull over.Ladkyishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08835766855890936214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832438155841430452.post-72707612710697903922013-01-18T21:58:34.578+00:002013-01-18T21:58:34.578+00:00Oh I remember those times, like so many not someth...Oh I remember those times, like so many not something I want to face again.

In my fifties, I was silly enough to place myself in that position again and once more experienced that feeling deep down in the pit of my stomach. I passed the exam and felt like a teenager. Some things never change.
