I did a job interview recently where I didn't feel totally afraid and lost. Prior to the day of the interview, I had a short-lived craze to be more confident and positive about my situation and existence; simply, I convinced myself to "be happy". Thoughts of believing in myself and acknowledging my smart-ness filled me. So, I walked into that office with my temporary newfound confidence and exuded a personality that only really exists with people I'm already comfortable with -- I was normal, in a sense (or as normal as someone like me can be).
I often feel insecure about how much I even actually know about my degree because it has been so long since I've applied any of its principles. Additionally, I don't believe I internalized them as I learned them. During the academic year, I was learning to pass exams and fighting for my life to finish schooling; retaining all that information after it was necessary was the least of my worries.
After the interview, I felt a temporary high as I often do when I do things outside of my usual antics (gaming, socializing with friends). It was also a weight off my shoulders to do something "productive".
Anyway, I hope things go well. If yes, that's amazing. If not, things will be amazing the next time.
